Queensland fruit fly activities

Biosecurity New Zealand

With the warmer winter and spring approaching, our Queensland fruit fly baiting work has begun again.

Our staff will be letting homeowners know if they need to enter properties and if they have been on properties.

Restrictions are still in place on the movement of locally grown fruits and vegetables.

Check what this means for you at biosecurity.govt.nz/queenslandfruitfly

We know it’s an inconvenience, but the work is vital for our horticultural industries and back yard fruit trees.

Thanks for your support, we cannot do this without you.
