Weed and Vegetation Control

---

Ecotec personnel are trained and experienced in identification of weed species and can undertake broad scale weed mapping to suit your needs. Weed mapping provides a reference for species identification, location and population density. This will assist in development of a weed control program by identifying the target areas and focusing spraying effort. Weed mapping will also allow assessment of the success of the weed control program over time. 

Ecotec personnel are trained and qualified in chemical handling and herbicide application. We use a variety of herbicides to target weed species and can develop a control program to help you get on top of your weed issues. We have weed control programs in place for numerous clients with targets including:

• mine sites
• exploration projects 
• construction projects
• abandoned mines
• road verges

Our Raymo remote control electric mower/slasher allows vegetation control to be undertaken in places that other machines can't go. The Raymo is low profile so can get in under low shrubs. It's much faster and safer than a brush cutter too!

• drains
• slopes
• bushland perimeters 
• orchards and plantations
• nurseries
• vineyards

Protect your infrastructure with regular vegetation control to reduce the risk of fire. A combination of slashing, using our Raymo remote control unit, and spraying with pre-emergent herbicide can reduce the fuel load around your assets. 

• power lines
• bore fields and pipe lines
• water treatment plants
• verges and drains
• vacant blocks
