Bay of Plenty residents, if you see myrtle rust…
...we recommend you don’t move myrtle species out of the area and don’t move green waste, tree prunings from myrtle species out of your property until further notice.
• Do not take green waste from myrtle species off your property as there’s the potential for it to be infectious.
• Green waste from myrtle species can be composted, but not taken to a refuse centre.
• Myrtle species include ramarama, pohutukawa, bottle brush and feijoa.

This is what greeted workers at Brookfield Sallies yesterday morning. All of it looks like it should have gone straight to the tip, which is what the Sallies will now have to pay to do. Surely whoever does this has no conscience. The Sallies do an amazing job of helping people in times of need and they don't need to be spending any money they receive on doing your dirty work, especially at this time of year.
