Them to just leave nature to grow in the country side? No! It must be a monoculture. /s
It’s not just Coillte unfortunately private forestry management companies are the same.
That’s an old sign. Coillte have largely changed their policy with regards the application of herbicides since.
Yes but nature probably won’t go onsite, eat said vegetation, and then sue. This is about absolute gombeens acting the maggot and then taking it to court. So the big take home is can society stop producing absolute chancers and turning a blind eye to all shite that comes with it.
No wonder Ireland has the worst biodiversity in Europe.
Everything is just there to give the government a few quick €€€
Those mushrooms would have a hell of a kick 🦄🦄🦄🦄
Not to be nitpicking here, but Coilte manages 7%, of Ireland not 8%. Also, they are a forestry business, not a natural park, despite the fact that they host many recreational and open forest areas throughout
The fact that some area need a herbicide warning has probably more to do with trying to avoid compensation claims than any grave danger to human or wildlife health.
I saw one of these in the last two months by Garryduff Woods in Rochestown in Cork. Even worse it was just one poxy sign, and it’s a loop walk so from our point of view it was at the end of our walk. Delighted with all those hazlenuts I picked up, leaves, the moss etc. Mmmm. Herbicides. Seriously though, why is it sprayed at all? Like, what are the perceived benefits of it in a Coillte forest?
Why is herbicide being sprayed in wildlife areas?

Fucking hate coillte, charging 5 euro for parking in donedea 😐
What’s the logic of this?
Assholes
I really wish they wouldn’t.
Me and my m8 usd to go shroom picking. There’s 2 golf course within 10 min drive or half hour walk. We’d both had kids a few months apart both uad dogs aswel. So We’d go picking in late August/Sep mornings with the kids qnd dogs the golf course was always treated with these spra6s but 4/5foot off the course was untreated we had some good little spots. We would also break some of the not so good looking shroom up and through them over the grass to help spread there spore.
Then the course green keepers seen us doing this and started clocking on to what we were up to. Amd I’m 100% sure he’d do his overtime in the mornings and deliberately hit the spots we picked.
Like why man i know your jobs to keep the course clear were wernt doing any wrong. Always following rules for the dogs mess and leash.
Was like this dude made it his things to mess us up so we stopped going to that course then he must have called the other course. Both run by local council.
So that messed up lucky both us drive so just ment finding new spots. Been a few years from sorting morning walks. Gonna make the point to gwt bk at it next season
People that spray stuff like this outside should have it sprayed over their houses and gardens, just to ensure it’s safe for use
There’s a particularly nasty disease that kills Ash trees called Ash Dieback.
Basically, if a tree gets infected, it dies, and any tree within 20 miles is likely tog et infected.
It was inevitable it was going to arrive in Ireland, but Coillte inadvertently imported ash saplings from Denmark, neglected to put them through quarantine, then distributed the saplings to forestry companies all through Ireland, leading to the widespread distribution of the disease.
Thankfully, there are disease resistant breeds of Ash trees, so it’s not as bad as the Dutch Elm disease.
Nevertheless, Coillte turned it from a managed slow moving disease into a widespread plague throughout the island.

Well whose fault is that? If the animals cannot take the time to learn to read then we cannot be expected to take responsibility for them!
/s
Can someone from Coillte explain why this is necessary? Lots of talking heads here.
In the forests near where I live (South County Dublin) Coillte are removing pine forests in order to replant native trees. It is a pretty ambitious multi year programme.

We’re so bad to nature on this island.
Forests gone, bogs dried out or dug up, native trees gone or disappearing. Wild bird numbers way down.
It’s a shite state of affairs.
And gaining more. Won’t be long before our country is ruined.
People complain about this yet have no problem about building blocks and blocks of apartments, where do you think the land is taken from?
You know the guy who wrote that in fact foraged for some of those mushroom.
Coillte are a scourge on our land
Pf like herbacide will stop me from picking my magic mushies

Wildlife don’t like Japanese knotweed either. Sadly there’s no other way to get rid of it.
Less than 1000 lairds own 50% of Scotland (for context)
Herbicide, Pesticide, Fungicide are just trigger words, would everyone calm down.
Could somebody with a degree in ecology, or perhaps some knowledge of the herbicide involved like to speak up and educate us?
Coillte and inland fisheries have to be the greatest shower of uneducated cunts to walk these lands. What is it about Ireland and it’s tendency to elect dickheads to do jobs that require knowledge and skill which they know absolutely fuck all about. Wildlife management in this country is horrendous. Deer populations exploding out of control and while salmon are slowly becoming a memory
