Have you got this Kmart product?
Kmart has recalled a line of wooden trays after reports of an invasive wood-eating beetle species within them. A Northland woman found sawdust and holes in her serving tray and alerted the Ministry of Primary Industries (MPI), the government’s biosecurity agency.
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.
