Waikato SPCA frustrated with puppy dumping

Wayne Timmo Reporter from Waikato Times

Hi Neighbours,
It's been puppies filling up the Waikato SPCA lately but the kittens are on the way.

Remember to get your pets de-sexed if they are not already and contact the SPAC if you can help as a foster carer for the impending cat boom.

United Video Dinsdale closing down

Kelley Tantau Reporter from Hamilton Press

After more than a decade, one of Hamilton's last remaining video stores is checking out. It's the latest outlet to meet its maker, after a flurry of video store closures throughout the country, owed in part to the convenience of competitors like Netflix​ and other streaming services.

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Are you going out of your way to collect plastic bags before they become illegal in NZ? Some Kiwis have admitted they are stockpiling bags before they can no longer get them from supermarkets and petrol stations.

It's been noticed that some customers have been taking plastic bags for things like single chocolate bars and drinks "to save up".

Do you find plastic bags handy for bin liners? What eco-friendly tips and alternatives to plastic can you share with your neighbours? Leave a reply to share your thoughts.

Bees are becoming very active in our gardens and trees, so if you see a bee swarm, and want help to sort it out or have it removed, I will willingly attend the site with all the required gear to look after and save our bees.
I am an approved AFB inspector, member of the Waikato Domestic Beekeepers Association and Apiculture New Zealand who has taken up beekeeping as a hobby in Tamahere, where we have room for bees to flourish.
Please call me on 021964000 any time if you need help with a bee swarm.
When swarming bees are relatively harmless (they generally will not sting you if you don't mess with them), as all they want to do is find a new home. They will settle in one spot for up to 24 hours and may move on if they can't find what they need, so time is critical to give them a hive to settle into. We don't want them living wild (not in a hive) as this can result in the death of these bees due to varroa mites or AFB or other disease issues. Also wild bees can infect other bees and are a threat to bees looked after in hives by responsible beekeepers.
