Last summer we embarked on an ambitious project to make a dent in the wasp population in the Nelson region. We fundraised and were able to lay 390km of bait lines in some of the region's most popular recreational areas, effectively making 10,000 hectares wasp free.
This summer we are delighted to announce we are expanding the programme to other parts of the country which are also affected by high wasp numbers. Vespex is laid in bait stations in late January and February when wasps change to a protein-based diet. It is of low toxicity and safe for bees. Results from last summer showed it has a 95%-99% success rate.
While a small amount of work is Government funded, we're going to raise more funds to get as many areas baited as possible, and we need your help. Go to our Popshop page to contribute to a wasp-free region
So join us in the battle. The more we raise the more areas we can cover.

While it may look unpleasant and sometimes smell, most algae in our waterways is harmless. However, some species found in Auckland can be harmful to people and animals if ingested.
If you’re planning an event on or in the water that could affect the normal operation of other vessels and water users in the area, you need to contact Harbourmaster on 09 362 0397.

Bug Lab Auckland is the brilliant new exhibition at Auckland Zoo, which I officially opened yesterday. Developed by Te Papa and Weta Workshop, it took six months and over 40,000 hours to design. I highly recommend checking it out this summer - it's great for kids, but adults will love it too. … View moreBug Lab Auckland is the brilliant new exhibition at Auckland Zoo, which I officially opened yesterday. Developed by Te Papa and Weta Workshop, it took six months and over 40,000 hours to design. I highly recommend checking it out this summer - it's great for kids, but adults will love it too. It's your last chance to see it in New Zealand for the foreseeable future as the exhibition is heading overseas in the New Year.
Check out the video below for a sneak peak, including a live wētāpunga - New Zealand's endangered Giant Weta.
