    Im in a similar situation to you Ben, there are bait stations allover this country. Talking to the contractor this year they have an average of 1 bait station every 4 hectares in the area.
    The monitor trapping for the last 2 years has only returned 5 possums so evidently it's working down.
    I am happy to eat venison from the area, as you point out the quantity required to reach ld50 is impratically high and it's not an everyday meat.
    I have always been fascinated by the "restriction" on game meat from these control areas entering the commercial food chain versus farmed protein, animal access to bait stations and their contents is basically the same.
