Paper wasps can be easily identified by their long, drooping back legs and laid-back, slow style of flying.
Asian, Australian and European paper wasps have gradually made their homes around our houses and fences and over the past few years and while they are useful for some unwanted bugs like the great white cabbage butterfly, unfortunately they aren't picky and have been feasting on our monarch butterfly caterpillar and other useful native bugs as well.
At Wasp Wipeout we are working hard to help raise funds to wipe out the most invasive species of wasps - the vespula (common and German) variety which inhabit a lot of our bush areas and regularly invade picnics and barbecues. To help us fight this species you can donate here
If you want to find out more about paper wasps, you can read the story and watch the video here

Good to see the rain outside. With demand creeping up yesterday, it's nice to know that our rivers will be getting a boost .

Trying to work out where I can drop some used clothes I don't need anymore.
I'm in Waiwhetu and was wondering where the nearest clothing bins are?
The one near Te Whiti Park and Woburn station seems to have disappeared.

It's been a good start to 2018
With lots of people heading out of the Wellington region for the Christmas and New Year period we saw a massive decrease in demand. And a bit of rain on the side means some of the water in our storage lakes has been replenished.

With lots of people heading out of the Wellington region for the Christmas and New Year period we saw a massive decrease in demand. And a bit of rain on the side means some of the water in our storage lakes has been replenished.
There is still a ban on residential sprinklers and irrigation systems around the region.
We are not yet half way through summer, so keep encouraging your neighbours to #watcheverydrop.
We will be celebrating some of the communities this summer who #loveeverydrop, so keep your eyes peeled.

I do not understand why people cannot keep new pets inside for a couple of weeks for settling down time and getting the smells of new places, so sad they are now lost and have no idea where to go. I still have this tabby who had 4 kittens here I am in the process of catching them to go to the … View moreI do not understand why people cannot keep new pets inside for a couple of weeks for settling down time and getting the smells of new places, so sad they are now lost and have no idea where to go. I still have this tabby who had 4 kittens here I am in the process of catching them to go to the SPCA, I already have 3 cats and two dogs. but PLEASE get them microchipped and used to a place before you risk them outside, it is so sad. I KNOW it is hard watching every time you open a window or door but if you love them and want them to stay it has to be done

I am not happy as my parents have bought a new puppy into my home and I just dont like it at all.
I need a loving caring person to look after me, preferably with no other animals or small children. In return I will give you lots of cuddles and always be at home with you.
Why are my parents giving me away...because I pee everywhere inside the house. They gave me a dirt box but I still pee everywhere. The vet told them I do it because I am anxious.
So if you can offer me a home please pm my mum as soon as possible
thankyou Simba
