Mick Haines
Director
A well-respected member of the Trueblue Conservation Services team, Mick is the founder and brings a history of great communication, planning, ethics and efficiency in relation to Vertebrate pest control programs. Mick spent a lot of time in his youth learning how to shoot competitively, and transferred these skills across to vertebrate pest control in small to medium farms. this also included trapping techniques for small to medium game including rabbits, foxes, feral cats. Since 2019 he has focussed on licensed Macropod culls during drought conditions, feral pig, fox and feral deer.
In the near future he will be attaining qualifications to provide aerial shooting services.
He believes each situation is different and requires a safe, effective management plan to individualised problems.
