Director of Public Health and Community Medicine Dr Liam Flyn said the residents did not touch or handle the bat in any way, which is really important, and means that no one was exposed.
A trained bat handler collected the animal and transported it to the RSPCA where it was tested and found to be positive to ABLV.“Thepositive result is a timely reminder not to touch bats

“Australian Bat Lyssavirus can be fatal to humans.“Bats should never be handled by members of the public, including if you come across a sick or injured bat, or even if the bat appears to be dead,” he said.
Only people who are trained and appropriately vaccinated should ever handle bats.

“By taking part, you can make the roads in your area safer and help save lives.”
“There’s plenty of work that still needs to be done which is why we’re calling on Queenslanders to take part in this survey which only takes a few minutes to complete.”
RACQ is calling on you to join its advocacy efforts and help identify roads that are in urgent need of an upgrade.

Heavy infestations of fireweed often result from neglect of steadily increasing fireweed infestations from previous years and lack of good ground cover caused by overgrazing, drought, fire or slashing.
In ideal conditions it can grow to 50cm tall with multiple branches and about 100 daisy-like bright yellow flowers.
The Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries advises that Fireweed (Senecio Madagascariensis) is a category 3 restrictive invasive plant under the Biosecurity Act 2014 and as such requires everyone to take all reasonable and practical steps to minimise the risks associated with invasive plants under their Fireweedcontrol.isanintroduced weed that competes strongly with pasture species and is toxic to livestock.
Best control of fireweed uses integrated management strategies, including herbicides, used before plants reach maturity or after flowering if a stronger rate of herbicide is used and mechanical methods of removal and bagging, and permanent pastures that can compete with fireweed seedlings.
LIFE CYCLE
DOUBLE STRIPED TRUCKERS CAPS
Fireweed is an annual or short lived perennial and is a daisy like herb that can vary greatly in size and shape depending on environmental conditions.
ERADICATION
Fireweed is responsible for illness, slow growth and poor conditioning of cattle and horses and can cause death.
Unless fireweed poisoning is severe it can be difficult to detect in cattle and horses, because the symptoms can have a variety of causes but symptoms of more severe poisoning such as loss of appetite, aimless wandering, sensitivity to sunlight and jaundice can result in death.
Fireweed spotted at a Wyreema property recently.
Fireweed has a shallow-branched taproot with many fibrous roots.
Seeds germinate in mild, warm conditions (15/27 degrees)
Recent ideal environmental conditions for the growth of the dreaded Fireweed has resulted in its sudden reemergence in paddocks and gardens in the region.

Fireweed is generally unpalatable to cattle and horses so poisoning occurs when fireweed is dense so stock cannot feed selectively or when there is a shortage of pasture.
Sheep and goats are less susceptible to fireweed and can graze in fireweed infested paddocks for at least one season, however, goats used for milk production should not graze in fireweed infested paddocks as milk will be tainted with fireweed toxins.
Ideal environmental conditions for Fireweed
Flowers and seeds are produced continuously over the growing season and an average plant can produce over 10,000 seeds during this time.
Fireweed is toxic whether green or dry so contaminated hay or silage may be toxic.

Children were able to predict the outcomes of experiments, participate in experiments and learn fun facts from the world of science.Itwasgreat fun and there were lots of laughs as well.
Alastair and his dinosaur friends taught the students about energy, circuitry and robotics using simple experiments which the children could repeat at home.
This year we created refrigeration devices and followed on from an awesome staff development session at the Cobb and Co Museum.
Recently School Performance Tours brought their “Teach your Dinosaurs Science” to the school.
National Science Week is Australia’s annual celebration of Science and Technology and we love being one of the schools to be so involved!
