PRIVET
As a relative newcomer to Snells Beach, I am astounded at the amount of privet growing wild on the road sides - LOTS on the Warkworth to Snells Beach road.
As privet is well known as an allergen - hay fever, asthma and respiratory diseases - I would have thought that local residents would have made it priority to cut down and eliminate this pest.
PLEASE - please check your property for this - the hay fever count is high enough without adding privet (which is now flowering) to the problems.
If you are unsure what it looks like - there are some great photos on google images.
Thanks
Justine (who has recently savagely destroyed all privet found lurking in the undergrowth! :-) )

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
