What’s News in our Network
Scroll down to see our current events and opportunities.
We’re kicking off our From Plans to Practice: Tackling Weeds and Pests Together project with a no-nonsense, hands-on rabbit control workshop for landholders who are well and truly fed up with rabbits undoing their hard work.
This first workshop, Rabbits: Breaking the Cycle, will focus on what actually works – demonstrating coordinated, whole-system control methods and showing why timing and technique matter if you want lasting results.
Working with Lead Mentor, Neil Devanny from the Victorian Rabbit Action Network, we will learn effective, coordinated control methods:
Mapping - identify burrows, runs and feeding areas so you know where to act.
Smoking warrens - visually reveal the true size and complexity of burrow systems.
Warren destruction - watch a burrow network ripped by an excavator
Baiting and Fumigation - methods and timing explained
Exclusion fencing …and much more.
Register here - it’s a FREE event …but places are limited!!!
For any more information or assistance with registering, please contact Caroline on 0472 503 088 or info@lcln.com.au
