Frequently asked
Why focus on disease transmission rather than just cleanliness?
Messaging the health and environmental consequences increases compliance. Dog waste carries pathogens and parasites that contaminate waterways and pose genuine public health risks.
Where should I mount this sign?
Position it near waste bins, at park entries, along trails, and on perimeter fencing where dog owners are most likely to see it before or after their dogs toilet.
Is one size enough for a large reserve?
The 450×600 mm format is visible from 20–25 metres. For sprawling reserves, consider multiple installations at key entry points and trail junctions.
Can I add my council logo or contact details?
Yes, we can customise the design with branding, QR codes, or local contact information. Request a quote with your specifications.
