Effective planning is one of the keys to effective rabbit control – and now is a great time to start planning a summer control program.
A case study from Riverina Local Land Services (NSW) shows the benefit of sound planning at a district scale (mapping warrens and arranging the most suitable machinery to use in different areas, while collaborating closely with neighbours). It is also a good example of using more than one control option for best results.

Whether the aim is for rabbit control across a landscape or on a single property, the message is the same – time spent planning can be critical to successful rabbit control.
