Owners have been warned to restrain their pets as a fox baiting program is due to commence in Richmond.
Greater Sydney Local Land Services (GSLLS) will be leading a fox control program through the use of 1080 baits on the grounds of The River Farm at 40 Edwards Road, Richmond, from next month.

“This program is aimed at reducing pest numbers and impacts on local agricultural industries, native wildlife and livestock,” a statement from GSLLS said.
“The program will commence on February 6 and run until March 1 … Please restrain all domestic pets during this time.”
Those who have questions regarding the program, or who would like to join a future pest animal control campaign, contact Lee Parker on 0408 213 588.
