What are your thoughts on the private sale of fireworks?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

The Auckland night sky is set to sparkle once again with the return of Guy Fawkes on November 5th - but not everybody is looking forward to it.

An Auckland horse owner is asking for people to consider their rural neighbours this year, after her horse was previously spooked by fireworks and injured her jaw on a fence. To read more, click here.

So we want to know your thoughts on fireworks. Do you think the private sale of fireworks be banned? Or are you all for it. Let us know your thoughts in the replies.

Some Choice News!

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!
