Reporting a fire hazard

Do you wish to report long grass and/or weeds?

Before reporting a fire hazard to us, please consider what the vegetation is. Vegetation which is green and actively growing is not considered a fire hazard until the vegetation is dead and no longer green.

If the vegetation is dead grass and/or weeds over 10cm high, you can complete the fire hazard report below.

Before you make a report, please see examples of what are genuine fire hazards and not fire hazards below.

Snake sightings

In South Australia, snakes are a protected species. Under the National Parks and Wildlife Act it is an offence to kill or remove a snake from its environment, with fines of up to $10,000 and two-years’ imprisonment.

If you see a snake, contact a licensed snake catcher who will catch and remove the snake. Do not attempt to catch, remove or kill a snake yourself. 

For further information and advice, please visit Department for Environment and Water or our Pets and animals page.
