Severe infestations can kill affected plants and have long-term impacts on the regeneration of young plants and seedlings. And it’s now in New Zealand – the first sighting has been reported in Kerikeri.
If you see it, DO NOT TOUCH OR DISTURB THE PLANT. Please take a photo and call us immediately on 0800 80 99 66.

Originally I was in favour of the 'Option 2' that Council seem to be pushing BUT you need to look very closely at the chart on page 11 and the impact of Option 2 in 2018/19, a further increase of $125 or $2.50/week. Considering that the Long Term Plan agreed rate for 2017/2018 was $752.68 and this has been increased by $113 to do Option 1, serious questions need to be asked. The existing budgets will already include money for CCTV work and SCADA upgrades and Council will have money available from depreciation of the existing assets.
I am disappointed that much of the document, Council has produced, has a definite bias for Option 2, when it should be unbiased and straight up as it is supplied to the owners of Council, the ratepayers.
These options have been created by consultants, and now is a great time to suggest to Council that they need to look at ways of trimming the budgets to keep them affordable when many people are struggling. I am not directly affected (as I am on septic tank) but am writing because I know people who will be. Our local Councillors will take our comments to the budgeting meetings so copy in Eugene Patterson and Janet Gibb

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.
2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.
3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.
4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.
5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.
