A second round of Argentine Ant poisoning is scheduled for 19 March for the reserve land around Panorama Heights, including Bolwell Reserve, Poplar Reserve, and The Ridgeway stormwater retention site.

While the prior poisoning in January appeared to be a success, post analysis reveals that some ant colonies survived.

A second application is expected to have the desired final effect.
