Ecological Restoration and Conservation Services

Hinterland Property Services has a demonstrable record over the last 15 years in the restoration of bushland in the Gold Coast Hinterland through effective weed control, regeneration and revegetation.

The Gold Coast Hinterland is recognised internationally as one of the top 10 spots for biodiversity in the world.

Native Vegetation Restoration involves reducing weeds to benefit indigenous plants. Controlling weeds allows indigenous seed in the soil to regenerate naturally. On more degraded sites, this regeneration might have to be supplemented through planting. By restoring habitat the abundance and diversity of indigenous flora is boosted along with the fauna that depends on it.

Native Vegetation Restoration work usually follows a Property Management Plan which sets out the required tasks within a timetable. A timetable can run for several months up to ten years or more, depending on the project. Making our visits at strategic times of the year for maximum effect, we use weed control techniques like handweeding, herbicide application, grass slashing and ‘woody weed’ control, in conjunction with revegetation methods like direct seeding, planting, plant-guarding, erosion control, fencing and mulching.
