If a property is occupied or used by persons other than yourself, the provision of this informhtinn, hy youlodhaiL- _ may reduce the potentially negative impacts of 1080 on domestic animals such as pets and working dogs. The poison to be used is compound 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) which is contained within an approved bait type for the pest species. Poisoning will occur from 01/03/2021 to 31/07/2021 after which time DELWP will collect and dispose of untaken and unused baits in accordance with the Directions for the Use of 1080 and PAPP Pest Animal Bait Products in Victoria. The use of the 1080 pest animal bait product will comply with the product label and the Directions for the Use of 1080 and PAPP Pest Animal Bait Products in Victoria. When used in accordance with the product label and the Directions for the Use of 1080 and PAPP Pest Animal Bait Products in Victoria the chances of non-target animal impacts are reduced but there is still some associated risk. By being aware of the dangers you are able to help manage the risk. To minimise the risk of poisoning to your animals you are advised: 1. Confine, muzzle and/or restrain your domestic animals, particularly dogs and cats, to prevent them from accessing 1080 pest animal poison baits or carcasses. 2. Domestic animals, particularly dogs and cats, are susceptible to primary poisoning from ingesting 1080 pest animal bait products and secondary poisoning from ingesting contaminated carcasses. It is unusual for domestic animals to scavenge on dog/fox carcasses. 3. Closely monitor the health and behaviour of your companion animals or livestock. If you notice any unusual or uncharacteristic behaviour contact your local veterinarian immediately. 4. There is a delay in the poison action of 1080 and animals that have ingested 1080 pest animal bait products may die on your property. 5. Collect and destroy any poisoned carcasses you find by burning (in accordance with local regulations) or burying to a depth of at least 50 cm for rabbits and at least 1 metre for foxes, wild dogs and feral pigs. 6. Always dispose of carcasses away from natural features such as waterways. Dangers to Humans: Compound 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) is a restricted schedule 7 poison and there is no known antidote. If you are handling poison bait and/or carcasses always use protective rubber gloves and wash hands and gloves thoroughly after contact. When used in accordance with the product label and Directions for the Use of 1080 and PAPP Pest Animal Bait Products in Victoria, there is little risk of humans being poisoned by 1080 pest animal bait products. Although the 1080 used in 1080 pest animal bait products is substantially diluted, 1080 pest animal baits and poisoned carcasses must be treated with care. If poisoning occurs immediately contact a doctor or the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 Further information on the use and handling of 1080 is available from 1080 pest animal bait manufacturers.
