Wet Season Gamba Grass Spraying

posted Jan 9, 2012 5:22 PM by Frank Dunstan   [ updated Jan 22, 2012 12:57 AM ]
If you haven't already done so, now is the time to spray gamba grass and other noxious weeds on your properties.

Assistance with the supply of glyphosate herbicide and spray equipment is available from NRETAS Weeds Branch

Before you start spraying you need to be able to positively identify the target weeds. Just blanket spraying everything does far more harm than good because you need to leave native grasses and plants to revegetate the sprayed areas.

Go to the Weeds section of this site for help with identification.

Local advice may be available through your local BFNT Volunteer Bushfire Brigade, or NTFRS Volunteer Fire Brigade.
