Hats off the the KAP for getting the government to see reason in QLD, about us licensed operators and graziers .
So if you need assistance just call, we will help where we can at this time.
If your business/ livelihood is directly affected by this Covit 19 restrictions and most are, we will help as a community service.

Hi everyone, these flying rats are actually a food source.👌
Watch out for fleas, lice and worms, but generally fairly good. I’m always asked by certain nationalities when culling in city for the carcasses.
Like the Roos they actually have to go in the bin.

As the new year starts and life is still hard and unpredictable on the land.
It’s time to remember that Scope doesn’t charge drought/flood/fire affected properties for feral animal control.
We will also come out and put down stock for you to save you the stress in a disaster.
We are now licensed to shoot in built up areas like towns/ovals/industrial sheds.

The answer is in a consolidated approach. Shooting, trapping, poisoning.
A bounty state wide would help as would , reopening the box’s.
But farm bio security must be respected.
Even in some drought affected areas , feral pigs survive.
Open slather is not productive or safe on many levels.
If one station has a planned approach it’s a financial cost added to the bottom line and if next door doesn’t have a program it weakens your program.

The National Farmers Federation is calling for Australia's 24 million feral pigs to be controlled.

"Feral pigs destroy crops, degrade soil and water and spread weeds. Alarmingly they also have the potential to spread endemic and exotic diseases such as African Swine Fever," NFF Chief Executive Tony Mahar said.

"Specifically, we're asking all levels of government to commit to investing in and working with industry towards the more effective control of feral pigs."

So, we want to know, with so many feral pigs across the country, how should Australia control the pest?

Western run, just back after 2 weeks.
3100km covered
40 c plus days
32 pigs
251 greys
Drought still has a hold on some of western Qld.

Another successful pigeon cull in a local town tonight.
Thinning the numbers slowly.

If you know of anyone suffering the damage these aerial rats cause , let them know we can help.

We are now endorsed to operate on/in non rural lands. IE Towns/suburban areas. QLD ONLY. With strict conditions of course.

So if feral pigeons are a problem, let me know, we may have a solution.

Not a pleasant subject , but after seeing first hand the mental stress caused by having to put down your own stock after an event(flood) on some blokes I know out west recently.
I want people to know and remember this offer.
I’ll come out and assist you for free if I’m available.
Possibly saving you a bit of heartache.
I offered our services to a number of groups assisting farmers/graziers but I think the concept of shooting and such put them off.
PM me or ring if in the future, we can help.
You never know it might just keep the black dog at bay , to help another bloke out.

11/02/2019

We don’t know how we can help out west, but Scope is willing to offer assistance free of charge, if we can assist flood devastated properties.
Just give me a call and let’s talk.

05/02/2019

You might not end up with pests this size after the current rain event.
But we are ready to assist with the normal run of feral pests ( dogs, cats, pigs, Roos etc), that will follow the improved feed and water.
Just give me a call.

The drought is still affecting parts of central and North Queensland.
Let a friend know we may be able to help. No fee is charged if the property is drought declared.
Self contained and references if required.
We understand it’s a big decision asking for help and having a stranger on your property, let us become a friend you didn’t know you had.

Research from one source had estimated that the Grey kangaroo on average for a 20 kg animal, will consume 700g of grass a day or the same as two sheep.
The culling of them is a necessary support mechanism for our farms.

It’s a waste of a resource not to market, I have shot hundreds under permits and it’s all wasted, not allowed to do a thing with them once they hit the ground.

South Australian farmers want to turn kangaroos into pet food, rather than shooting them and leaving them in the paddock to rot.

Did you know.
Rabbits cost Australian agriculture an estimated $1 billion a year.
Very costly for a introduced pest.
