TO maximise the impact of the latest national rabbit control effort – the release of the K5 virus – a workshop will be held on how to carry out warren ripping and effective rabbit control.
The free event will be held on Friday, May 5 from 10am to 12.30pm, at the corner of Mcmeniman Lane and Paling Yard Road, Wallangarra.
Guest speakers include Darling Downs Moreton Rabbit Board’s Dr David Berman, Biosecurity Queensland’s Dr Peter Elsworth, Southern Downs Regional Council’s Craig Magnussen and QMDC’s Vanessa Macdonald.
The workshop will cover: getting into the mind of a rabbit, how to identify where rabbits are breeding, control techniques, a warren ripping demonstration, incentives offered, and legal obligations for landholders.
