South Burnett Regional Council has reminded landholders that the use of 1080 meat baits must comply with Queensland Health standards.<\/p>\n

The Council provides 1080 meat baits to landholders to kill wild dogs and feral pigs which can have a devastating impact on livestock.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Underpinning the safe use of 1080 poison is a Queensland Health Departmental Standard, ‘Dealing With Restricted S7 Poisons For Invasive
\nAnimal Control’,” a Council spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“The objective of this Standard is to ensure 1080 and other restricted poisons are stored, applied and disposed of in a way that is safe and protective of public health whilst allowing the effective use of these substances.<\/p>\n

“Council and landholders using 1080 poison for the control of both wild dogs and feral pigs must comply with Queensland Health standards to prevent risk to life or safety of a person or non-target animal and to ensure the integrity and quality of baits.<\/p>\n

“Council ensures all landholders that receive 1080 baiting services are aware of and abide by the requirements outlined within the Queensland Health standards covering storage and transport,
\nnotification, warning signs, application of baits, disposal, record keeping and reporting of incidents.”<\/p>\n

Cr Scott Henschen said it was imperative that all landholders that use 1080 poison abide by the rules governing its use. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe use of 1080 in Queensland is highly regulated and Council\u2019s wild dog control programs, and indeed all of our invasive pests control activities, are guided by scientific research into best-practice control methods.<\/p>\n

“Research shows that the most effective and efficient form of broad-scale wild dog and feral pig control is co-ordinated 1080 baiting.<\/p>\n

“In order to protect the continued availability of 1080, it is imperative that landholders abide by the restrictions and rules governing its safe and effective use, so it continues to be available as a valuable tool for landholders across the South Burnett.”<\/p>\n

The Council reminder follows a hearing earlier this month in which a Glan Devon man was fined $2205 in Nanango Magistrates Court after two of his neighbour’s dogs died after eating meat laced with 1080.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
