Keep rag monsters away this festive season

The Team from Wellington Water

A full house over the Christmas period can put extra stress on your homes plumbing.

You don't want to have to call in a plumber to clear out a 'rag monster'.

‘Rag Monsters’ are made up of wet wipes, nappies, cloth, tampons, sanitary and incontinence pads, hair and other non-biodegradable material.

These items have no place in the wastewater system and should never be flushed down the toilet.

Give your loo the ultimate gift today by only flushing the 3Ps down the toilet: Pee, Poo and [toilet] Paper.

Happy Christmas!

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!
