When checking some of our local roadsides and parklands for Wheel Cactus, Tarrangower Cactus Control Group committee members have noticed that quite a few areas have been injected or manually removed. This is thanks to a few quiet achievers: the anonymous Lone Wheel Cactus Warriors who have taken it upon themselves to tackle this noxious weed along our roadsides and in our native bush.
These locals commit their time and effort without recognition to help us control Wheel Cactus infestations and we’d like to sincerely thank them. Their work helps keep our natural landscapes healthier and our drives more pleasant. We see the difference, even if we do not always know who is behind it and we hope they recognise themselves in this article. Thank you, Lone Wheel Cactus Warriors. Your efforts are appreciated.
The TCCG supports lone volunteers by loaning Injector Kits and digging hoes, and offering refills and repairs. If you’d like to become a Lone Wheel Cactus Warrior or are already one, get in touch by clicking on the ‘Contact’ tab.
