Rabbit Bait Stations for NZ & Australia
Philproof Rabbit Bait Stations are designed for landowners, farmers, contractors, councils, biosecurity agencies, community groups and conservation organisations who need a reliable, professional solution for managing rabbit populations over large areas.
Rabbit control is rarely successful using a single method. Best-practice guidance from New Zealand and Australian biosecurity authorities consistently recognises baiting as a key component of an integrated rabbit management programme, particularly where rabbit numbers are high or properties are large.
When used correctly, baiting should be followed up where practical with methods such as shooting, fencing, fumigation, warren ripping and destruction. This integrated approach delivers far more durable results than relying on any single control technique alone.
Who These Bait Stations Are For
- Farmers managing rabbit pressure across paddocks and boundary lines
- Lifestyle block owners dealing with persistent rabbit damage
- Pest control contractors running repeat or large-scale programmes
- Conservation and land management groups protecting pasture and habitat
Why Baiting Is the Preferred Starting Point
Rabbits breed rapidly and reinvade quickly if only individual animals are removed. While techniques such as shooting, trapping, or ferreting can be useful for follow-up or small areas, they are labour-intensive and limited in coverage.
Baiting is significantly more effective than ferreting when the goal is to reduce rabbit populations across an entire property. This is why professional rabbit control programmes typically begin with baiting, then apply follow-up methods once numbers are reduced.

- ✔ Check stations regularly to monitor bait uptake
- ✔ Adjust station numbers based on property size, terrain, and rabbit density
- Shooting for follow-up control
- Traps (e.g. MK6) for individual problem animals
- Fencing to limit reinvasion

Suitable for use with a wide range of rabbit bait products, including pelletised and oat-based baits such as Bunnybait®, Pindone products and other registered rabbit control baits when used in accordance with the bait manufacturer's directions and applicable local regulations.
Recommended Use
Rabbit bait stations are typically deployed as the primary control tool across a property, with follow-up methods used once populations are reduced.
The number of bait stations required will vary depending on the size of the area being treated and the severity of the infestation. Larger properties and higher rabbit numbers will require more stations to ensure effective coverage of 2 per hectare
For practical guidance on placement, servicing, and correct use, refer to the demonstration video available on this page.
Multi-Species Capability
In addition to rabbit control, the same bait station can also be used to protect bait for possum and rodent control, making it a versatile option for properties managing multiple pest species. This allows a single bait station platform to support broader pest management programmes where required.
