Feral Pig Management for NSW Farms

Feral pigs damage crops, pasture, fences and waterways, and can carry disease. We offer free, community-focused assistance to help NSW landowners manage them responsibly and humanely.

The impact

How feral pigs affect rural properties

  • Crop and pasture damage

    Rooting and trampling can destroy crops and leave paddocks churned and unproductive.

  • Infrastructure and water

    Fences, dams and creek banks suffer damage, and water quality can decline.

  • Livestock and biosecurity

    Feral pigs can prey on lambs and are a biosecurity concern for farms.

Our approach

Responsible, humane and properly assessed

We use modern observation equipment and careful site assessment. Specific methods are discussed with you directly rather than published online.

  1. 1

    We begin with a conversation about where damage is occurring and how recently.

  2. 2

    Observation and site assessment help us understand movement, access and safety considerations.

  3. 3

    Management is planned around safety, welfare and neighbouring properties, with humane methods.

  4. 4

    We discuss realistic expectations, including when a coordinated approach with neighbours is needed.

What to expect

No payment. No pressure. Clear communication.

  • A discussion about the extent of damage and your property layout.
  • An assessment of suitability and safety.
  • Clear communication throughout.

Free of charge for the advertised community assistance. Submitting a request does not guarantee assistance.

Common questions

Yes. Wild Pest Solutions provides this assistance to NSW landowners as a community service, with no fee and no online payments. Submitting a request does not guarantee that assistance will be available.

Often, yes, but results are best when management is coordinated with neighbours. We will talk through your situation when we speak with you.
