• Effective rabbit control that works

    Safe, professional Pindone baiting programmes to control rabbit populations and protect your land

  • Rabbits can quickly damage pasture, gardens, and native plantings, particularly on farms and lifestyle blocks across Otago. Left unmanaged, rabbit populations can grow rapidly and become difficult to control, causing ongoing damage to pasture and vegetation.

    Our team uses proven Pindone baiting programmes to safely reduce rabbit numbers and protect farmland, lifestyle blocks, and larger rural properties. With careful bait placement, monitoring, and follow-up visits, we deliver effective rabbit control services across Otago.

  • How our Pindone rabbit control service works

    Rabbit control is most effective when it’s planned properly. Our team uses a structured baiting programme, including site assessment, safe bait placement, and follow-up monitoring to ensure the treatment works across your property.

    Property assessment

    We begin with a discussion about your property and the level of rabbit activity. During this stage we review property size, terrain, and stock management so we can identify the most suitable areas for safe Pindone bait placement.

    Pindone baiting programme

    Most properties require two Pindone bait drops, with a third drop recommended if rabbit activity remains high. Our team calculates the amount of bait required based on the number of hectares being treated and the size of the rabbit population.

    Safe Bait Placement

    Where livestock can be managed, we recommend the best areas of the property to safely broadcast the bait. On lifestyle blocks or properties with horses or pets where stock management is difficult, we can deploy bait pens to keep the Pindone carrots contained and reduce the risk of livestock accessing the bait.

  • Monitoring and follow-up

    After the baiting programme we return to monitor results and determine whether further control work is needed. Where appropriate we can also carry out Magtoxin treatments or night shooting as part of ongoing rabbit management.

  • What is Pindone rabbit control?

    Pindone is a widely used rabbit control method in New Zealand. It works as an anticoagulant bait, meaning rabbits must feed on the bait over several days before it becomes effective. Because it works gradually, it is considered a more controlled and humane option compared with faster-acting toxins.

    Pindone is commonly used across farms, lifestyle blocks, and rural properties where rabbit populations can quickly damage pasture, crops, and native vegetation. Treatments are usually carried out in winter or early spring when natural food is limited and rabbits are more likely to take the bait.

    Professional application ensures bait is placed safely and responsibly, with proper monitoring and follow-up to reduce rabbit numbers effectively.
