Weed Control
NO WEED SPRAYING REGISTER
Should you wish to be on the "No Weed Spraying" register due to health reasons or because you wish to maintian the property yourself, you may telephone 8551 0523 to be included on the register.
We take this issue seriously and welcome any additions to this list.
During a weed spraying program the "No Weed Spraying" Register is handed to our contractors and staff to ensure that the registered properties and adjoining areas are not included in the spraying program.
WEED CONTROL ALTERNATIVES
