Feral deer can create significant hidden costs:
Many landholders underestimate the cost of deer until populations become established and difficult to control.
Heart-shaped hoof prints larger than sheep or goats.
Small pellet-like droppings in clusters.
Bent wires and damaged crossings.
Bark stripped from trees during rutting season.
Vegetation damaged up to 2 metres high.
Effective feral deer control requires planned, lawful and targeted strategies. Deer are highly mobile, intelligent animals with strong flight responses, meaning poorly planned or ad‑hoc control efforts can increase dispersal and long‑term management challenges. Professional control programs use species‑specific knowledge and coordinated methods to achieve meaningful population reduction.
Licensed feral pest control operators in NSW may employ a combination of approved control methods, including:
All control activities are conducted with a strong focus on compliance, safety, and animal welfare, and in accordance with NSW regulations and landholder permissions

Our deer-management programs aim to:
Landholders receive GPS-mapped reporting and ongoing recommendations for future management.
Across New South Wales, successful feral deer control is best achieved through tailored, property‑specific management programs. Each property presents unique challenges depending on terrain, deer density, seasonal movement and surrounding land use.
By selecting the right combination of control techniques and coordinating efforts where possible, landholders can achieve more sustainable, long‑term reductions in feral deer pressure while meeting their biosecurity responsibilities
