Glyphosate aka Roundup
Has anyone else had the same misfortune as I have had with cancer in your dogs?
In the 23 years I have lived in Totara Vale I have lost 3 dogs to lymphoma. All girls and all 5 years old when they died.
I have discovered that the council sprays our park with glyphosate 4 times a year without warning aside from on their website. The contractor puts a sign up for the 30 minutes or so that it takes him to spray.
When I called the council call centre I was told that it was safe to walk my dog in our park that same day. My vet said leave it at least 7 days and preferably after rain.
Ventia were there yesterday using weed eaters which pleased me no end and when I called the council they said they were using 'mechanical' means in our ward (Kaipatiki) but when I called a local councilor I was told they are still using Roundup as well. Not happy.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
