Residents Urged To Prepare For Mice Influx: The CSIRO and NSW Farmers have issued warnings about an expected increase in mice numbers heading into the cooler months.
Member for Cootamundra Steph Cooke said it is crucial the new NSW Government supports farmers and homeowners to prepare for the possible influx. “There are many households and businesses across regional NSW whose daily lives, mental and physical health was impacted by the large numbers of mice two years ago.”
Ms Cooke said at the time, the Government ensured bait supplies and rebates were made available with a $50 million support package for eligible landholders, households and small businesses.
Ms Cooke has called on the new Government to be prepared if the population spikes after what has been another bumper cropping season in many areas.
