Identification of serrated tussock
Serrated tussock is a Weed of National Significance (WONS). It is regarded as one of the worst weeds in Australia because of its invasiveness, potential for spread, and economic and environmental impacts. It can spread rapidly, invading pastures, native grasslands and urban areas, and already covers more than a million hectares across New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and the ACT. Find out more.
The Victorian Serrated Tussock Working Party (VSTWP) began in 1995 in response to the community’s deep concern with the spread of serrated tussock, and a strategy for the control of serrated tussock in Victoria was produced.

Preventing serrated tussock from establishing on your property is the best method of control and is best done in Spring prior to seeding. The Victorian Serrated Tussock Working Party (VSTWP) is asking landholders with seeding serrated tussock to make reasonable efforts to reduce seed spread to neighbouring areas, as serrated tussock seeds late spring.
