What was the event?
The European Vertebrate Pest Management Conference is a biennial meeting of people interested in various aspects of vertebrate pest management.
Overabundant vertebrate populations can be responsible for crop loss, public and animal health concerns, structural damage and conflicts with conservation interests.
Brenda Mayle from Forest Research presented 3 papers on:
- Changes in impact and control of grey squirrels as determined from regional surveys in Great Britain
- The use of DiazaCon to limit fertility in grey squirrels
- The impacts of feral boar on woodland flora and fauna in Great Britain
