Sunday 18 October

Wangaratta Small Bore Rifle Club, Wangaratta

Book at https://events.humanitix.com/peri-urban-rabbit-control-information-session

Pest animals such as rabbits and foxes don't only cause problems on farms - they can cause plenty of damage right in town.

This session aims to provide people with information about what to do on your property so you are not harbouring these pests.

Local experts will discuss options for dealing with rabbits, foxes, feral cats, and common mynas on peri-urban properties such as town blocks sharing boundaries with public land or small acreage holdings.
