Grove Road

The boneseed infestation at Grove Road to the west of Lorne covers several private properties and DSE managed land.  DSE had treated their land during the year which gave the network and opportunity to move into the adjacent private properties.  Some of the landholders were happy to continue controlling their infestations on their own however some landholders were keen to participate.  One dense infestation on land that had been neglected by a previous developer was important to control and required several days by a team of contractors.
