After more than a decade in development, ACTA has developed an Australian innovation to tackle this destructive pest – HOGGONE.

This Australian innovation is effective, fast-acting and humane.

It uses a unique form of sodium nitrite that is an approved food preservative in low doses which kills pigs quickly.

Pigs are more susceptible to sodium nitrate because they have low levels of a protective enzyme that is present in other species.

HOGGONE completely breaks down even after the feral pig has died.

HOGGONE, and its active constituent sodium nitrite, degrades totally in the environment, further boosting HOGGONE’s environmental credentials.

Considerations When Using HOGGONE:

It is a regulatory requirement that HOGGONE meSN Feral Pig Bait is deployed in a Bait Box.

Regulations require warning signs (supplied with the Hog Bait Box) to be placed at entry points to properties undertaking a baiting program

Notifying neighbors is always recommended but is not obligatory with HOGGONE.

HOGGONE does contain peanut paste so should not be used by anyone with nut allergies

Active Constituent:
100 g/kg Sodium Nitrite

This placebo (non-toxic) HOGGONE bait is used to free-feed and train feral pigs onto the Hog Bait Box before a toxic baiting program begins, helping pigs become comfortable accessing the box. Deploy it in the Hog Bait Box as required by regulation, and put up the supplied warning signs at property entry points before starting any baiting program. Notifying neighbours is recommended, though not obligatory, with this placebo product. Tips: Since HOGGONE bait contains peanut paste, anyone handling it should be aware of nut allergy risks. Once pigs are reliably feeding from the box on the placebo bait, you can move on to the toxic HOGGONE product following label and regulatory requirements.

Common Questions

What is HOGGONE used for?

HOGGONE is an Australian innovation designed to control feral pigs. It is fast-acting and humane, using a unique form of sodium nitrite as its active constituent.

Why are pigs more susceptible to HOGGONE than other animals?

Pigs have naturally low levels of a protective enzyme that is present in other species, making them more susceptible to sodium nitrite. This selective action is part of what makes HOGGONE effective for feral pig control.

What happens to HOGGONE after it's used?

HOGGONE and its active constituent sodium nitrite completely break down and degrade in the environment, even after the feral pig has died. This gives HOGGONE strong environmental credentials.

What do I need to know about using HOGGONE safely?

HOGGONE must be deployed in a Bait Box as a regulatory requirement. Warning signs (supplied with the Bait Box) must be placed at entry points to properties undertaking a baiting program. HOGGONE contains peanut paste, so it should not be used by anyone with nut allergies. Always read the product label and follow all directions before use. For specific application and safety details, consult the registered product label or contact a veterinarian or agronomist. TGRM can also help—call (07) 5482 1692 or visit 55 Tozer St, Gympie.
