We’ve got a growing problem in the Latrobe Catchment...
Pest animals and plants are brazenly jumping fences, invading new areas and in the process damaging native habitats, native wildlife, livestock and people's livelihoods.... not only that, they're taking a serious toll on peoples' back pockets, community morale and neighbourhood good-will.
The good news? Understanding how and why these pests and weeds spread, when and how best to control them, and what to build into a successful pest and weed control program will help set you and your neighbours off on the right foot.
In this 4-hour 'on farm' workshop you’ll learn:
🌱 key components of a successful weed and pest control program
🌱 control options available, and when to use them
Join vertebrate control specialist Dominic Bromilow from Deeper Green and habitat restoration guru Gez Watt from Native Habitat. These guys have been delivering pest animal and weed control services respectively for decades.
