Pest plant and animal management
Pest animals and plants can pose significant threats to agriculture, the natural environment and public health and safety in the Hills and Fleurieu region. The Hills and Fleurieu Landscape Board works closely with the community to help reduce the number of pests, restore native biodiversity and reduce losses in the agricultural industry.
The board has a pest management program to assist in the identification and management of the pest plants, pest animals and marine pests found in the region.
