VISITING OPPOSUMS 24/5/24

Ragni from Pakuranga Heights

I have been regularly getting 2 opossums in my guava trees and Auckland Council has been no help nor has pest control. So it is up to me to buy a trap and try to catch them, which is really disappointing. I have a lot of bird life in the back yard and I can see the opossums scaling branches for nests etc. Next they will be in our roofs. Can someone help me or give me some advice, as they are not my pets and it should be a community concern, as I just happened to notice them in the dark by being in the backyard, while a lot of community members are in their houses especially in this cold weather.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
