Vertebrate Pest Control Services – Ground & Aerial

Professional Integrated Pest Management

INLOC delivers end-to-end vertebrate pest control services across Australia, specialising in trapping, ground shooting, and aerial shooting operations. Our team of licensed occupational shooters manage feral pigs, wild dogs, cats, invasive birds, and other vertebrate pest species using methods that are safe, humane, and compliant with all relevant legislation.

Whether working with landholders, ranger groups, or government agencies, our goal is to reduce pest populations efficiently while protecting the environment, agriculture, and native wildlife.

Aerial Pest Control & Aerial Shooting Services 

INLOC provides aerial shooting services from helicopters targeting large pest populations quickly and effectively in open or inaccessible terrain. Our aerial shooting crews are trained and licensed for Category D firearms, ensuring precision, safety, and compliance at all times.
This service is ideal for:
• Large-scale feral pig culls
• Wild dog management
• Feral goat and deer control in rugged areas
• Targeting pests across floodplains, national parks, and remote cattle stations
• Thermal Assisted Aerial Culling (TAAC)

Drone Assisted Culling – Advanced Detection Technology and Aerial Intelligence
As a CASA-approved Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC) holder, INLOC integrates thermal drone technology into both ground and aerial operations. Our drones detect heat signatures from animals hidden within vegetation, rugged landscapes, or low-light environments—conditions where traditional spotting methods are ineffective.
Benefits of thermal drone pest control:
• Faster detection and location of pest animals
• Reduced time and cost of operations
• Improved accuracy and reduced environmental disturbance
• Humane outcomes through targeted removal

Ground-Based Vertebrate Pest Control Operations 
Our ground control teams operate with multi-calibre, purpose-built firearms to manage pest animals at close to medium range. This approach is particularly effective for:
• Feral animal trapping using both steel and net trapping systems
• Pest control around agricultural crops and infrastructure
• Targeted feral pig removal in cropping areas
• Wild dog management near livestock
• Feral cat, deer, and fox control for wildlife conservation projects
We can operate day or night, with night vision and thermal imaging equipment enabling effective 24-hour pest control where required.

Marksmanship Training & Capability Development 
INLOC delivers advanced firearms marksmanship and occupational shooting training, ensuring all shooters—whether rangers, landholders, or specialist contractors—meet the highest standards of marksmanship. Our training extends from foundation marksmanship to advanced ground and aerial shooting techniques, with a strong focus on safety protocols, precision shooting, and humane animal destruction. This combination of training and operational delivery means our teams are not only skilled but also adaptable to the unique challenges of remote, isolated, and high-risk environments.
