REVEGETATION IN KANGAROO VALLEY
01 Aug 2019
In order to protect the native vegetation in the riparian corridor of the beautiful Kangaroo River, NSW, which was being destroyed by the wildlife, Malmsbury Timbers delivered an effective revegetation solution. See how it worked.
Based in Shoalhaven, NSW, the Kangaroo River is a beautiful waterway navigated by thousands of tourists each year. This beauty was being threatened as the stunning native vegetation in the riparian corridor was being destroyed by rabbits and wombats, causing the river to lose its natural beauty.
Malmsbury Timbers collaborated with Shoalhaven Council and Total Ground Solutions to deliver a revegetation solution that re-established the native vegetation. 
Malmsbury Timbers used a black mesh guard over the low-cost plastic tree guards, as the mesh design allows young trees to receive the maximum amount of rain and provides greater rigidity against the native fauna.
Supported by three stakes, the black mesh guards are made from UV-stabilised recycled polyethylene and can be cut to length if larger animals, such as wallabies, are present.
Alternative tree guards, biodegradable weed mats and soil conditioners are all available from Malmsbury Timbers. The experienced staff are on-hand to assist in with any questions you may have about your revegetation projects.
