FREE PANASONIC 50" TV
Broke down on me a few days ago. It was displaying a green line on the screen. Maybe there's someone out there into repairing TV's 😁 or would be cool if someone could pick up from me to recycle it. I can't wait till the next inorganic collection next year to clear it. Call/text me 0273862680 Cheers Helen

Hornet tracking continues!
Biosecurity New Zealand is urging Aucklanders to continue to be on the lookout for yellow-legged hornets (Vespa velutina) or nests.
Risk to New Zealand from hornets:
The yellow-legged hornet is a biosecurity concern due to its potential impact on honeybee and wild bee populations. It primarily feeds on bees, wasps, and flies. It may compete with native insects and birds for food, and it has a painful sting.
Since 17 October 2025, 9 confirmed queen hornets have been found in Glenfield and Birkdale. All detected hornets and nests have been safely removed.
The best surveillance tool we have is for people to report any sightings of suspected hornets or hornet nests.
Biosecurity New Zealand is aware of members of the public taking previously published photos of the hornet and posting them on social media, with claims it is a new discovery in a different region of New Zealand. This means confirmation from photographs alone is not possible and could be misleading.
