Do you live in the area around Taurus Crescent, Gemini Place and Rangatira Reserve?
Hi - do you live in the area around Taurus Crescent, Gemini Place and Rangatira Reserve?
Pest Free Kaipatiki will be in your area for two events in the next few days:
On Sunday 13 December, the Rangatira Reserve restoration group will meet at 10am to hand weed the area in the reserve where native planting was done earlier this year. If you want to know more please follow the contact details below.
On Monday 14 December, the Pest Free Kaipatiki Hit squad will be visiting Taurus Cres and Gemini Place from 9.30am and can help you control pest plants at your place or across your back fence in the reserve.
Please check your section - particularly along the boundary - and your street for the weeds shown in the flyer below - especially moth plant and woolly nightshade - which are both allergenic. They will soon be seeding - it's quickest and most effective to control them now before they spread more widely around our homes and parks.
Take this opportunity to talk with your neighbours to get on top of these pest plants. For more information about how you can tackle weeds on your property or street, go to this website: www.pestfreekaipatiki.org.nz...
If you see these weeds, follow the guidelines in the flyer below. Or if you can't deal with them, please send details of the street address and location to PestPlants@pestfreekaipatiki.org.nz - if possible please talk to the land owner or occupant and give us their contact details.
And if you are free on Monday mornings, please come along and join us - we'd love to work with you to help make your neighbourhood more eco-friendly and beautiful. It's a great way to keep fit, meet good people and help to improve your environment. Ring 021-240-9414 for details
Most of our volunteers will be working hi-vis jackets with "Pest Free Kaipatiki" on the back. But if you have any questions about what our volunteers are doing, please phone us.
And don't forget if you want to control rats and possums, see the page www.pestfreekaipatiki.org.nz...
Help keep Beach Haven & Birkdale pest plant and predator free.

Auckland Harbour Bridge summer works
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi is carrying out essential maintenance on the Auckland Harbour Bridge this December and January. The southbound clip-on lanes will be closed (24/7) from 26 December to 5 January for road resurfacing. Night-time lane restrictions will be in place throughout the summer for recoating work on the bridge. Traffic will still be able to travel in both directions at all times.
