Martinborough residents have been warned to boil their water after E. coli was detected in the township's water supply.
The South Wairarapa District Council issued the warning on Tuesday evening advising the bacteria had been found in "very low" concentrations.
The council has instructed water for drinking, food preparation and brushing teeth should be boiled to ensure it is safe.
The council would be testing the water supply to identify the source of the contamination. Read more here.

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!
