ZP50 Mouse Bait update from Grain Producers Australia
UPDATE from Grain Producers Australia | ZP50 mouse bait access and reporting
Increased mouse activity in parts of Australia in 2026 has resulted in growers needing to increase their use of crop protection products to help manage and control mice numbers on-farm, to guard against economic losses.
Grain Producers Australia (GPA) has been issued an emergency permit for industry (PER 97414) by the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority (APVMA), allowing growers access to ZP50 mouse bait
A number of farm chemical manufacturing companies are included on the GPA permit, enabling ZP50 product to be legally manufactured and sold to growers.
The conditions of this permit require bait users to complete an online training course and reporting requirements.
Next steps
Growers and applicators will need to complete the stewardship training and reporting in order to purchase and maintain their access to ZP50 products.
