Investigating improved rodent control strategies

Researchers will work closely with industry to develop innovative, economical strategies for efficient rodent management. The strategies will be trialled on participating egg farms and the outcomes and learnings will be communicated to industry. The aim of this project is to find easy-to-implement rodent control strategies which yield better results than current, common rodent control programs. The adoption of promising strategies will result in reduced rodent populations thus reducing related structural damage incidents, feed loss and contamination and ultimately improve biosecurity and bird health.
