A rabbit control program is due to be carried out by Southern Biosecurity Group from Sunday 18 August – Thursday 31 October 2024, subject to weather.
The program is targeting the greater Hopetoun area including Krystal Park and verges in all areas within the Shire of Ravensthorpe.
Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), commonly known as calicivirus, is being used as the control measure.
Owners of pet rabbits are advised to ensure vaccinations against RHDV are up to date.
Details of any known large infestations of rabbits can be directly reported to Southern Biosecurity Group.
