    Notice of 1080 ground baiting program

    NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is conducting an ongoing ground baiting program from Tuesday 21 July 2026 to Monday 21 December 2026. The operation will use 1080 (sodium fluoroacetate) poison for the control of foxes.

    The program will take place in:

    - Comerong Island Nature Reserve

    - Conjola National Park

    - Meroo National Park

    - Murramarang National Park

    - Narrawallee Creek Nature Reserve

    - Seven Mile Beach National Park.

    The program is designed to minimise predator impacts on wildlife, especially nesting threatened shorebird species.

    Signs will be placed at the entry to the baiting location. Domestic pets are not permitted in NSW National Parks managed lands. Pets and working dogs may be affected (1080 is lethal to cats and dogs). Pets and working dogs must be restrained or muzzled in the vicinity and must not enter the baiting location. In the event of accidental poisoning seek immediate veterinary assistance.

    Penalties apply for non-compliance. For further information call the NPWS Nowra area office on 02 4428 6300.

About

Whether you're camping or treating yourself to a stay at the nearby cabins, Pretty Beach is a great place to take in some of Murramarang National Park's stunning 44km long coastline.

If you're camping nearby, not only can you roll out of your tent and head straight to the beach for a swim, you could also take easy walk through grasslands surrounded by plenty of kangaroos, hike up a mountain or work up an appetite canoeing nearby.

And when you're done with the day's activities, go fishing, catch your dinner and cook up a feast on one of the picnic area's barbecues. The sunset from here is simply amazing, so make sure you take plenty of family photos with Pretty Beach's memorable ocean and mountain views as your backdrop.
