Carethy internet shopping site DO NOT USE scammers
If anyone is doing an internet search for a particular item and you consider buying anything from Carethy.net, Carethy.com or Carethy. nz. DO NOT! They are a bunch of scammers which as I now notice is very much out there in their reviews. I wished I had known this before I ordered. The general theme seems to be the same. You order what you want, they take your payment and it all looks very professional. Weeks later and after many emails to them, they inform you that they do not have the stock. They offer you the opportunity to spend your money elsewhere on their site rather than a refund. This is also a con so don’t go there either! Eventually, you will manage to get a response which offers you a refund within 14 business days! (Does it really take that long to refund a card). Anyway, that is where any communication with you ends, no matter how many emails a day you could possibly send, and they run off into the sunset with your hard earned cash. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY, IT IS A SCAM! Please share this information far and wide so that they hopefully stop thinking they can scam Kiwis.

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!
