    Coming Once Licensed

    Commercial weed spraying.

    Spraying herbicide on someone else's property for a fee is licensed work in Victoria. It takes a Commercial Operator Licence (COL) from Agriculture Victoria, which covers ground-based spraying of agricultural chemicals including weed control. Ironbark is arranging that licence now. Mechanical clearing, slashing and mulching are available today; commercial weed spraying starts once the licence is in hand. Tell us about the weed problem in the meantime and we'll line up the mechanical stages.
