CVPM delivers professional vertebrate invasive pest management, integrated land management, weed spraying and vegetation control services throughout Victoria. We specialise in humane, targeted and evidence-based pest management programs that protect biodiversity, safeguard environmental, agricultural, culturally sensitive and community assets through effective, compliant and outcome-focused management.

​

Our primary focus is integrated land management, biodiversity conservation, government asset protection, environmental management, damage mitigation, commercial and private asset protection, and livestock protection from the impacts of invasive vertebrate pest species.

 

We primarily employ ground shooting as our core vertebrate pest control method, complemented by targeted baiting programs for foxes, rabbits, pigs, and wild dogs. Our baiting strategies are carefully planned and implemented to ensure species-specific control, maximise effectiveness, and meet all regulatory requirements.

​

In addition, we offer soft-jaw leg-hold trapping and cage trapping services for foxes, wild dogs, and invasive pest birds in select areas. CVPM also provides rabbit warren GPS mapping, fumigation, ripping, trail camera deployment and wildlife monitoring to support integrated pest management programs and long-term environmental management outcomes.

​

Our team consists of licensed and accredited commercial operators who are trained to humanely destroy wild animals and commercially harvest wild game. Each operator is accredited in the Destruction of Wild Animals for Commercial and Non-Commercial purposes, Wild Animal Harvesting and hold the National Shooting Proficiency Accreditation and are commercially insured for all invasive pest animal activities.
