24.01.2022 Feral or stray cats can sometimes be a problem in the CBD. Council hires out cat traps to members of the public or businesses for a deposit of $70 (this is fully refundable once the trap has been returned in good condition). Simply contact us and once a trap becomes available, a Local Laws team member will contact you to let you know it can be collected from the Animal Management Facility at 21 Richardson Road.... Please note that cat traps can only be set on private land. Once a cat is trapped, it can be brought to the AMF for impounding, and the trap returned. Or you can call Council during business hours and a Local Laws ranger will collect it from you. If a cat is trapped outside of business hours, you can transfer it into the holding pens located at the front of the AMF. Roller blinds are being installed on the holding pens this week, to reduce the heat and sunlight on the animals and pens. For more information, please call Local Laws on 4747 3200.

23.01.2022 For most, getting bitten by a mosquito is just an itchy and annoying experience. But in Queensland, mozzies can carry and transmit diseases, so it's important to avoid bites by using insect repellent or plug-in mosquito repellent devices inside. In the event of a bite, the following steps can help. If you think you might be experiencing an allergic reaction, call triple zero (000) immediately.
