1080 Wild Dog and Feral Pig Baiting Program 2022

Isaac Regional Council would like to advise all eligible landholders that the baiting program for 2022 is scheduled as per the dates set out below.

Round 1 – Monday, 14 March 2022 to Friday, 8 April 2022

A second round of baiting will be conducted to provide landholders to undertake further control of wild dog and feral pig populations. Currently this baiting period is scheduled for the dates below.

Round 2 – Monday, 15 August 2022 to Friday, 9 September 2022

Please note that due to legislative and operational changes, the Queensland Government is phasing out their role in 1080 baiting. Plastic bags for injected meat are no longer being provided by the Queensland Government beyond the exhaustion of their remaining limited supply.

In round 1 of baiting, landholders are requested to bring their own sealed containers.

As of round 2, landholders must provide their own sealed containers or baits will not be able to be injected.

‘Doggone’ factory baits are available outside of these times, orders must be made in advance and delivery is approximately three weeks from order date.

‘Doggone’ baits are supplied ‘at cost’. Factory baits are available for purchase through Council. To book a date or for further information about this program please phone Lauryn Newton on 4846 3767 or Council’s Customer Service team available 24/7 on 1300 ISAACS (1300 472 227).
