Control gorse with precise drone spraying.
Drone Spraying for Gorse is faster, safer and more cost efficient than usual methods.
Gorse is an invasive weed species, like blackberry and artichoke thistle, that rapidly takes over land. Infestations can quickly become unmanageable, making vast areas of land unusable and increasing fire risk and impacting the productivity of your land.
Methods such as cut & paint, mulching and ground spray rigs often aren’t effective at treating invasive weeds long term, with the weeds often surviving and growing back.
We cover more area per day, with less herbicides and overspray than helicopter spraying. Take control of your land again and maximise your productivity with quick and easy drone gorse spraying. We service Melbourne and all of Victoria.
Eliminate Gorse long-term with drone spraying
Field Master Systems drone spaying is the most precise and effective way to control gorse long-term. We precisely target the gorse and invasive weed at the root using cutting-edge drone technology.
Eliminate the gorse, once and for all
Precisely kill the whole plant by targeting the centre. Have peace of mind with our long-term gorse control knowing it won’t grow back.
Remove gorse quicker to access your land faster
Cover large areas of land quicker so less time is spent removing the gorse and faster access to land.
Target hectares of gorse infestation and difficult to reach terrain
Gorse infestations can become so large that it’s impossible to control them using traditional methods in a single go. The drone covers the whole plant, ensuring a total kill the first time.
Save on herbicide and reduce overspray
By only spraying where it’s needed, our customers save $1000’s on herbicides, all while preserving native vegetation.
We bring everything needed - from the drones, herbicides and expertise
We take care of the entire process for you and bring everything we need to make it easy and straightforward for you.
Drone Spraying for Gorse is precise, cost efficient and fast
Drone spraying for invasive gorse is ideal if:
You’re looking for a long-term solution to control gorse in Melbourne or rural and regional Victoria.
Gorse has built up over large swathes of land, reducing the usability and productivity of your land.
Your gorse infestation is in difficult to access terrain, such as rocky, steep and uneven land.
You want a safer and cheaper solution for your land and animals without unnecessary use of herbicides.
Drone Spraying Vs Other Methods
Whilst there are alternative solutions to removing gorse and invasive weed, drone spraying for gorse is the most precise, fastest and safest option to treat large scale gorse infestations long term.

Yes. We make things as easy as possible for our customers, and we can supply all of the required herbicides you’ll need to treat your gorse at competitive rates.
Any chemicals or herbicides used in the drone must be approved for aerial spraying. This information can be found on the label attached to the herbicide. If you’re not sure, give us a call and we’ll tell you if your herbicide can be applied with the drone.
Our customers who have used helicopter spraying in the past have told us that drone spraying leads to significant reductions in herbicide costs, as well as less overspray and damage to native vegetation. This is due to the fact that drones fly much closer to the ground, and have a narrower boom width capable of better targeting individual plants.
Yes, we use a hybrid approach to control gorse that is suited to your specific needs. Often properties will require a combination of drone spraying and ground spraying to ensure that all areas are fully covered.
It depends. While drones are great for gorse in steep, rocky and soft terrain, there are some places that are difficult for drones to access. Anywhere with thick tree cover such as remnant bushland and along creek lines can be better candidates for hand spraying. If you’re not sure, give us a call and we’ll arrange a site inspection to let you know if drones are the right solution for you.
Gorse can be treated all year round in Victoria. Depending on soil moisture conditions, we avoid spraying it when it’s too hot or dry to maximise the efficacy of the herbicide.

Drone spraying of gorse is a precise method which targets the gorse root, eliminating the majority of the gorse long-term. Some spot treatment may be needed to follow up but it is considerably less than traditional methods.
Traditional methods for weed control can be laborious and are often only suited to small sections of gorse. They often don’t penetrate the centre of the bush meaning the gorse can grow back and develop chemical resistance. Drone spraying is more precise and targets the whole gorse bush, covers vast areas of land and difficult to reach terrain, and often requires less herbicides overall.
