What you need to know:
- The product is called Large $20 Acacia Serving Tray and was sold nationally.
- The product may be infested with Lyctus africanus (also known as the African powderpost beetle), a species not present in New Zealand.
- Kmart are no longer selling these products and will wait for instruction from MPI before destroying these.
Anyone who finds a suspected exotic pest is encouraged to call MPI’s hotline on 0800 80 99 66.

They deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about their power bills, or their health.
They might be eligible for Warmer Kiwi Homes, a government grant offering 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
And they may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.
Go to warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz to check their eligibility.

A life that's filled with energy, confidence, good gut health, less stress and most of all, no deprivation or calorie restrictions.
It is so important to UNDERSTAND how your body works.
We educate you and that education lasts a lifetime.
Once you know how your body functions, you know how to look after it for life.
You will learn about your gut health, your hormones, toxins and what foods are going to serve your body over others.
You'll also learn a lot about mindset and how this is going to be one of the biggest factors to overall change.
Life is so much richer and way more fun when you're fit and healthy.
We are on a mission to help as many people as possible create a completely new lifestyle in 2023 and ditch the traditional diets that don't teach you anything about your body.
