HUMANE SPRAY FOR THE CONTROL OF CANE TOADS

HOPSTOP is a patented Australian innovation that provides for the humane kill of cane toads (Rhinella marina).

HOPSTOP won the Australasian Aerosol Industry Association’s ‘Innovation Award’, and ‘Best New Product’ award.

SPRAYED DIRECTLY ONTO TOADS WITHOUT ANY NEED TO TOUCH

It anaesthetises toads within seconds, and kills them humanely in 30 ‐ 60 minutes. Toads are physically unmarked by the treatment, and do not display unacceptable physical signs of distress or trauma as a consequence of treatment.

WHY CANE TOADS ARE A PROBLEM

Cane toads became pests after being introduced to Australia from Hawaii in June 1935 by the Bureau of Sugar Experiment Stations. The expansion of cane toad populations has become a national concern.

HOPSTOP CAN PROTECT YOUR PETS

The cane toad invasion has put your pets and local fauna at risk. When used properly, HOPSTOP removes the threat and is safe for people and pets - and is humane for the toads.
