Australian primary production runs to a pest calendar that does not move. Seasonal, regional, predictable, and unforgiving. Cockatoos arriving in stone fruit before harvest. Foxes shifting to lambing country in spring. Mice building in grain storage as harvest hits. Fruit fly during ripening windows. The pressure does not negotiate, and the window for installing protective gear is fixed by the same calendar that drives yield.
Two sets of rules govern the work simultaneously. Declared pests including foxes, rabbits, feral cats, mice, fruit fly, and stored-product beetles are controlled under state biosecurity codes and the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, with lawful methods, humane dispatch, and biosecurity audit records. Protected native wildlife including cockatoos, ibis, possums, bats, swallows, and native birds is managed under state wildlife protection legislation, with permits where required, and a deterrence-led, exclusion-led approach that is never lethal except where specifically permitted. Operators and pest managers run both at once, on the same sites, with the same documentation burden.
The systems on this catalogue are built for that reality. Multi-season fruit nets engineered for five seasons of Australian UV exposure. Bird scarer kites and visual deterrents for protected species where lethal is not an option. The AvePro Max Agricultural Bird Deterrent Laser for orchard and vineyard scale deterrence. Vertebrate traps designed and tested on Australian lambing country, including the Fox Magnet Trap, the Rabbit Magnet Trap, and the Cat Magnet Trap. Rodent stations and grain storage monitoring that produce the records auditors expect at the next inspection. MinkPolice trap monitoring sensors that turn the daily check round on a remote property into data, replacing the cost of dry-check trips with the value of an alert when a trap fires.
For pest managers servicing rural accounts and agribusiness operators planning the season, the page is a starting point. Browse by pest, by system, or by brand from the related collections. Download the Agribusiness Seasonal Pest Pressure Calendar to plan a region by region, pest by pest schedule. Use the trap-sensor payback maths Pest IT supplies to size a monitoring program. Speak to the Free Design Service to specify a season's program for a specific property. Whatever the path, the goal is the same: yield protected, biosecurity records ready, wildlife compliance held, and the operator on country with the gear in place before the pressure window opens.
