The how-to of effective mouse baiting - techniques, machinery and safety

Mouse populations across a large part of grain growing regions were higher than average across the 2021 and 2022 seasons, requiring an increased effort in mouse management from growers.  To help Australian grain growers reduce crop losses due to mouse damage, a GRDC investment is examining mouse bait application techniques to better understand the performance and likely efficacy of various options.  In this episode, we’re joined by agricultural research engineer Ben White who is leading the project team, as well as CSIRO mouse expert Steve Henry who starts us off with a bit of a history lesson.  Contact Steve Henry, Mouse expert  CSIRO  [email protected]  Ben White, Agricultural research engineer  [email protected]  More information Bait spreading methods examined to combat mouse damage in crops  Mouse tracking project in WA  Project Codes BVW2302-001SAX  Learn more about your ad choices.
