Ministry for Primary Industries

Myrtle rust is a fungus that can destroy our native and taonga trees such as pōhutukawa, mānuka, kānuka and rātā. It also attacks feijoa trees. Severe infestations can kill affected plants and have long-term impacts on the regeneration of young plants and seedlings.

Myrtle rust is a fungus that can destroy our native and taonga trees such as pōhutukawa, mānuka, kānuka and rātā. It also attacks feijoa trees. 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 – sightings have been reported in Kerikeri in Northland, Waitara in Taranaki and Te Kuiti in Waikato.

If you see it, DO NOT TOUCH OR DISTURB THE PLANT. Please take a photo and call us immediately on 0800 80 99 66.

Outstanding local animal control team effort to celebrate

Cara from Ngaruawahia

7 year old husky type impounded with grossly infected eyes from entropia of top and bottom lashes in both eyes. 7 years of pain and discomfort.

Best thing that could have happened to her was find her way into the pound... because... thanks to the big hearts at the pound, funds have been raised to get her the surgery she desperately needs so she can start life fresh with new and improved eyes.

See plenty of bad press about pounds around the country so let's level the playing field with a good news story.

She will need a suitably fabulous home post surgery so any prospective home offers need to go to Amanda D at Waikato District Council pound team - 078248633 or 0800492452

Kudos to the team, they do a fab and unenviable job in our community.

Plenty of dogs and pups needing homes in pounds and rescues that support them - so adopt don't shop and stop unnecessary breeding. 💕

Do you want to change your chemical house to a non toxic one?
Thought about changing to non toxic but been worried about the cost?
Know anyone with eczema or allergies?
Know of any kids that have been poisoned by household cleaners?
Worried about your own kids getting poisoned at your place, grandparents or friends houses?
Thought about more income for your household but worried about hours?

If non toxic was the same price or cheaper than chemical products and did a brilliant job - what is there to think about, really? 🤔

Free info evening tonight Wed 24th May - 653 Ngaruawahia Rd, Te Kowhai 7pm
We can show you a range from over 450 non toxic products - we don't sell them direct. They are brought online through an online supermarket - delivery 5 - 7 days 😊


Looking after our families, children, employees, environment and ourselves 💕
