We are capable of hand weeding, basal bark spraying, herbicide application, woody weed control, brush cutting, slashing and forestry mulching.
Our equipment includes a quad bike with a 20 hand line and boom and 2 4WD mounted, full remote control spray rigs. We also have multiple knapsacks, a 4WD ute with a boom spray on the back of it and an ASV 120 posi track with a rotary axe for slashing and woody weed control. For handling woody vegetation up to 18″ in diameter, we have a Fecon forestry mulcher.
