Bee Swarms
Hi Everyone. With spring approaching it is nearly time for bees to start swarming. A swarm is nothing to be afraid of and is quite spectacular if you happen to see them during the process. If anything the bees tend to be less defensive of a swarm than they are of an established hive. If you happen to come across a swarm on your property and want it removed please feel free to contact me directly on 0272944402 or alternatively there is a list of ‘Swarm catchers’ available from www.kiwimana.co.nz.... Please do not call an exterminator! Swarms can typically be removed easily or will move on by themselves once they find a suitable home.
Thanking you

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
