Prepare for your trip by being alert for stowaways such as Argentine ants, 
rainbow skinks, soil, seeds, mice or rats. Do:

  • • check that your bags are clean and free of stowaways and then seal them up 
  •  
  • tight as soon as you have finished packing them.
  •  
  • • make sure all food is packed at source and sealed in plastic rodent proof 
  •  
  • containers with lid. Ensure cardboard boxes are closed and taped – there 
  •  
  • must be no opportunity for a rodent to access the box in transit.
  •  
  • • thoroughly check any camping or overnight gear for stowaways. Gear that 
  •  
  • has been stored is high risk.
