Western Australian businesses and community members are encouraged to report any unfamiliar or suspicious animal or plant pest or disease or weed.

The introduction of an exotic pest, disease or weed to Western Australia could cause significant problems for our agrifood industries and/or environment if it were to become established here. The sooner it is reported, the better the chance of control and eradication.
