About AGDAM

AGDAM Australia is a professional vertebrate pest management service specialising in the ethical and effective control of pest and feral animals. With over 15 years of hands-on experience in shooting and trapping, AGDAM is fully insured, licensed, and a proud member of both the Sporting Shooters’ Association of Australia (SSAA) and Field & Game Australia – Mornington Branch.

Servicing the Mornington Peninsula, South-East Melbourne, and surrounding rural areas, AGDAM provides reliable, targeted solutions for landowners, farmers, and property managers seeking to protect their investments and meet their legal responsibilities in pest control.

 

Why Choose AGDAM?

​

Your livestock, pets, and property represent significant investments. Protecting them from pests and predators is not only a matter of safety—it's also a legal obligation for rural landholders.

Hiring unlicensed or recreational shooters can pose serious risks, both in terms of safety and liability. AGDAM is a fully insured professional service, with public liability cover tailored to commercial operations—not recreational hunters using insufficient insurance that doesn't cover them or you. AGDAM has public place permits, allowing us to operate legally in both metropolitan and rural areas, including parts of Greater Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula.

 

Common risks from unmanaged pests include:

• Livestock injuries or deaths (e.g. from fox attacks or burrow-related injuries)

• Structural damage to dams, fencing, crops, and feed stores

• Environmental degradation (e.g. ringbarking, turf destruction, nesting, erosion, feed and water fouling)

• Financial loss through reduced productivity and increased maintenance costs

 

AGDAM offers a direct, humane, and targeted approach—avoiding the risks of poisons, indiscriminate baiting.
