27 Sept 2015 – Cactus Control Day

Posted on 21 September, 2015 by Connecting Country

The Tarrengower Cactus Control Group has let us know that their next Wheel Cactus Field Day will be on Sunday 27th September near the corner of Whitlocks and Greenhill Bridge Roads, just a few kilometres southwest of Maldon. To get there, leave Maldon along Parkins Reef Road, continue along South Parkins Reef Road and finally veer to the left along Whitlocks Road. The route will be well signposted. The morning’s activities will begin at 10:30 am and end at 12:30 pm with an enjoyable free BBQ and friendly chat. If you have any queries please contact Ian Grenda on 0412-015-807 or check out their website at www.cactuswarriors.org.  A map is attached (CLICK HERE).

    Would you please be so kind to advise The Tarrengower Cactus Control Group, that there is an infestation of wheel cactus in Mc Nabb Road, Newstead, just near Jockey Drive. This needs to be treated by whoever is responsible (eg MtAlx Council). It is on public land next to Mc Nabb Road. There is one large infestation and one very small infestation about 5 metres away.
    Regards, Neil Webster.

      Hi Neil. We’ll pass the message on. It is quite scary that we are seeing so many scattered Wheel Cactus occurring well away from the Maldon-Tarrengower area. Hopefully we can bring them under control in time. Thanks for letting us know. Chris
