Pesticides

A farmer spraying some plants.

Council uses pesticides to control various pests in public areas such as parks, gardens, and Council-operated facilities.

The Pesticide Use Notification Plan guides the process of informing the community when high-toxicity pesticides are used or when large amounts of pesticides are used in public spaces.

Council ensures that pesticides are applied safely and responsibly to minimise harm to the community and the environment.
