Burrier Weed Control Project

The National Trust of Australia (NSW) completed weed control works on a property in Burrier between January and June 2023, on behalf of Council. The project location was on the Shoalhaven River area that was impacted by the 2019-2020 bushfires and subsequent floods causing significant weed infestations and erosion. The project targeted three key weed species using herbicide and manual methods of control. Following two rounds of weed control, native revegetation was undertaken on the eroded riverbanks and areas left bare after extensive weed control.

Target weeds:

  • Solanum mauritianum Tobacco Bush
  • Lantana camara Lantana
  • Rumex sagittatus Turkey Rhubarb
