Australia’s biggest Cane Toad Bust is back! Join us for The Great Cane Toad Bust 2024, running from January 13th - 21st.
Head out onto your property or into your local area to collect cane toads with your families and friends. Are you involved with a local community group? Organise a social night and collect cane toads together!
This year we’ve got an exciting announcement - for the first time toad tadpoles will be included in the tally! Trapping Cane Toad tadpoles allows you to remove Cane Toads before they grow up to cause damage.
Remember, females can lay up to 35,000 eggs each time they breed, so every Cane Toad counts!
Head to https://watergum.org/greatcanetoadbust/ for event information and resources.
We will have a number of champion toad busting groups around the nation hosting toad busting events throughout the week. Stay tuned to find your local group!
If you have a body of water and want to bust some Cane Toad tadpoles stock up on your trap and lures now! Buy online or in a stockist near you - https://watergum.org/tadpoletrapping/
