Professional Rabbit Control Services Across the Central West


Rabbits are one of Australia's most destructive pest animals, causing extensive damage to pastures, crops, native vegetation and soils throughout the Central West region. Left unmanaged, rabbit populations can increase rapidly, resulting in significant agricultural losses and environmental degradation.


Feral Pest Animal Control provides professional rabbit control services across the Central West region using integrated pest management strategies, including thermal shooting, harbour reduction, and Rodenator 3 rabbit warren destruction. We work with farmers, graziers, rural landholders, councils, mining companies and conservation organisations to deliver effective long-term rabbit management solutions.



Rabbit Problems in the Central West


Rabbits are widespread across the Central West, particularly on grazing properties, cropping land, travelling stock reserves, creek lines and rocky country where warrens provide ideal shelter.


High rabbit populations can result in:


Loss of valuable pasture


Crop damage


Soil erosion


Damage to native vegetation


Reduced carrying capacity


Competition with livestock for feed


Failure of revegetation projects


Increased predator numbers by supporting fox populations


Without an integrated control program, rabbit populations can recover quickly and continue causing costly damage.



Our Central West Rabbit Control Services


Rodenator 3 Rabbit Warren Destruction


We operate the Rodenator R3, an advanced rabbit warren destruction system that uses a controlled oxygen and propane gas mixture to collapse and destroy active rabbit warrens.


Benefits include:


Destruction of active warrens


Reduced rabbit harbour


Increased effectiveness when combined with other control methods


Minimal soil disturbance compared to mechanical excavation


Suitable for many rural properties


Thermal Rabbit Control


Using high-resolution thermal imaging, we locate and remove rabbits during periods of peak activity, helping reduce breeding populations before they expand.


Night Shooting Operations


Night shooting provides an effective method of reducing rabbit numbers while complementing warren destruction and broader pest management programs.


Integrated Rabbit Management


The most successful rabbit control programs combine multiple control techniques. We develop customised management plans that may include:


Warren destruction


Thermal shooting


Follow-up monitoring


Population reduction


Ongoing property management



Why Choose Feral Pest Animal Control?


Experienced Rabbit Control Specialists


We understand rabbit behaviour, breeding cycles and habitat preferences throughout the Central West, allowing us to implement effective long-term management strategies.


Advanced Equipment


Our operations utilise:


Rodenator R3 Rabbit Warren Destruction System


Thermal imaging equipment


Night vision technology


Precision shooting equipment


GPS mapping and monitoring


Safe and Professional Operations


All work is carried out safely and professionally, following NSW legislation, manufacturer operating procedures and industry best practice.


Tailored Property Solutions


Every property is different. We assess rabbit activity, terrain and property objectives before developing an effective rabbit management program.



Benefits of Professional Rabbit Control


Professional rabbit management helps:


Increase pasture productivity


Reduce grazing competition


Improve livestock carrying capacity


Protect crops and vineyards


Reduce soil erosion


Improve native vegetation recovery


Enhance long-term property productivity



Integrated Rabbit Management


Long-term rabbit control requires more than simply removing rabbits. Effective programs combine population reduction with the destruction of breeding habitat.


Our integrated approach includes:


Rabbit population reduction


Warren destruction using the Rodenator R3


Follow-up monitoring


Property assessments


Ongoing management recommendations


This provides longer-lasting control than individual treatment methods alone.



Thermal Imaging Rabbit Control


Rabbits are most active during low-light and night-time periods.


Our thermal imaging technology allows us to:


Locate active rabbit populations.


Identify movement corridors.


Assess infestation levels.


Improve control effectiveness.


Monitor treatment outcomes.


Thermal technology significantly improves rabbit detection and operational efficiency.

Rodenator

Rodenator 3 Rabbit Warren Destruction


Rabbit Warren Destruction


Rabbit warrens provide shelter and breeding sites that allow populations to rapidly recover.


Our rabbit warren destruction services using Rodenator R3 help:


Destroy breeding harbour.


Collapse active tunnel systems.


Reduce reinfestation.


Improve long-term control outcomes.


Support integrated rabbit management programs.


Targeting active warrens is often one of the most effective long-term rabbit control measures available.



Rabbit Control for Farms and Grazing Properties


Rabbit infestations can significantly impact agricultural production throughout the Central Tablelands.


Our rabbit control programs assist:


Sheep producers.


Cattle producers.


Mixed farming enterprises.


Cropping operations.


Lifestyle acreage owners.


Equine properties.


Benefits include:


Improved pasture availability.


Reduced competition with livestock.


Lower erosion risks.


Improved ground cover.


Increased carrying capacity.



Rabbit Control for Environmental Projects


Rabbits are a recognised threat to biodiversity and native vegetation.


Rabbit activity can:


Prevent natural regeneration.


Damage revegetation works.


Reduce biodiversity outcomes.


Increase erosion and land degradation.


Professional rabbit management supports conservation, Landcare and environmental restoration projects throughout the Central Tablelands.



Frequently Asked Questions


Is shooting alone enough to control rabbits?

Shooting can effectively reduce rabbit numbers but is most effective when combined with rabbit warren destruction and ongoing management programs.


Why is rabbit warren destruction important?

Rabbit warrens provide breeding sites and shelter. Destroying active warrens helps prevent rapid population recovery and improves long-term control outcomes.


Do you use thermal imaging?

Yes. Thermal imaging significantly improves rabbit detection and control effectiveness, particularly during night-time operations.


Can neighbouring properties participate?

Yes. Coordinated rabbit management across multiple properties often delivers superior long-term results.


How often should rabbit control be undertaken?

This depends on infestation levels, surrounding habitat and property objectives. Ongoing monitoring is generally recommended.
