 Restricted Chemical Product Permits

Registered S7 pesticides, such as 1080, para-aminopropiophenone (PAPP) and strychnine, can be used for vertebrate pest animal control.  The use of these products is restricted by law and confined to certain areas of Western Australia.  

 

​Before using a registered pesticide, a landholder must:

  • complete mandatory training,

  • apply for and obtain the appropriate permit: a Restricted Chemical Product (RCP) Permit, and

  • comply with relevant Acts and Regulations. â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹

​For more information and access to the training, visit the DPIRD's Registered Pesticide Permits page​​

Fauna Causing Damage Permits
(Damage Permits for Emus)

IMG_0975_Original.jpeg

To manage emus on your property, you need a Fauna Causing Damage Licence (referred to by the NBG as a Damage Permit).

The licence is issued by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) to 'take or disturb fauna causing an impact on public safety or biosecurity, or economic or biodiversity damage'.

 

A Fauna Causing Damage Licence will specify the:

  • number and species of animal you may take

  • area where the animals may be taken

  • who may take the animals

  • manner in which the animals may be taken.

 

To find out more about the license:​

Visit DBCA's Wildlife Licensing page to register and apply for the licence:

The Australian Government's ABLIS website also contains useful information about the licence, including fees and DBCA links:
