You've written off the steep bit. The gully. The creek bank.We clear it by hand. The weeds go. The natives stay.

Most acreage owners have a section of their property they've quietly given up on.
The steep slope behind the house. The gully you can't get the mower into. The creek bank that filled up with lantana three summers ago. It was easier to leave it. So you did.
Every wet season it spreads a bit further. Every dry season you mean to do something about it. The weeds creep up the slope, into the trees, along the fence line. The longer it sits, the bigger the job gets.
Too steep for a tractor. Too big to hand-pull. So it grows. The weeds with the deepest roots end up on the ground machines can't reach.
Lantana, camphor laurel and vines love the water. Riparian zones carry the heaviest infestations on most SEQ properties. No vehicle gets down there.
Shaded, damp, dense. Everything grows fast and nothing gets cut. The part of the property you walk past instead of into.
The bit you stopped mowing years ago. Now it's a seed source feeding weeds across the rest of the block.
We work the terrain machines can't reach.
No vehicle access required. We go in on foot with hand tools, chainsaws, handheld sprayers. This is technical work. Steep slopes, creek lines, dense gullies, rocky ground. If you can walk it, we can treat it.
On steep ground that still allows safe access, our remote-control tracked machinery works grades that would bog or tip a standard tractor.
Hand and chainsaw treatment on grades that exclude machinery.
Licensed operators for chemical work near water. Targeted and limited.
Species-specific treatment through thick understorey and shade.
Boundary infestations cleared regardless of how hard the access is.
A forestry mulcher clears everything.
We clear what needs clearing.
Bring a mulcher onto a steep slope and it takes out the lantana, the prize rainforest trees, and the native grasses. Everything goes. You're left with bare, disturbed soil. The weeds come back first, because they always do, and you start again.
We work plant by plant. We treat the lantana, the camphor laurel, the cat's claw. We leave the natives standing. The vegetation regenerating underneath the weeds gets its light back and its chance to recover.
The weeds and the natives grow side by side. We know the difference.
Hand work.
Targeted chemistry.
Cut the weed at the base, treat the stump straight away. Works on lantana, camphor laurel, privet and woody weeds. The plant beside it stays untouched.
Herbicide applied to the lower trunk, no cutting. Suits steep ground where swinging a saw is hard. Used on camphor laurel and larger woody weeds.
Backpack sprayer on foot. Spot treatment of lantana and groundsel bush where no vehicle reaches. We target the weed, not the whole slope.
For seedlings and young plants where pulling beats spraying. Done properly and systematically, not as an afterthought.
