Wollongong City Council and South East Local Land Services, are conducting a feral rabbit baiting program in Ocean Park, Woonona.

The baiting program was at the request of the Club who have the licence for Ocean Park. It is taking place in gated and locked areas of the reserve.

The program is underway to manage the impact of the pests who can damage sporting fields, undermine roads and impact threatened plant species and ecological communities. It’s timed to be carried out now, ahead of the rabbit breeding season.

While the baits are placed in areas of the reserve that are off-limits to members of the public, we’re asking people to be aware the program is underway and to keep dogs and children away from the area.
