About the Presenter

The National Fire Ant Eradication Program is a nationally cost-shared program, governed by a National Management Group (NMG), which represents the Australian Government, as well as state and territory governments. The program – Australia's largest biosecurity initiative – is working to eradicate fire ants from Australia by 2032. To succeed, we need to work together as a community. Just one untreated nest can jeopardise national eradication efforts. That’s why we’re on a mission to track EVERY fire ant nest. Success depends on everyone checking their properties and local area for fire ants and reporting what they find.

Our programs are free for Gold Coast Library members. If you are not a member, you can sign up for free.
