You've probably seen the empty canisters — on the footpath, at the park, outside the dairy. They're called nangs (nitrous oxide), and right now, they are flooding our community at a frightening rate. Community leaders, police, and Health NZ have already called it an epidemic right here in Hawke's Bay.
So what ARE nangs?
Nangs are large pressurised canisters of nitrous oxide gas, originally designed for whipped cream dispensers, now being sold at dairies and vape stores, and deliberately marketed to our young people. Each big canister contains roughly 300 hits of the gas. When inhaled, the gas deprives the brain of oxygen and can cause:
⚠️ Loss of consciousness — blacking out for 30 minutes or more
⚠️ Permanent nerve damage — numbness, weakness, difficulty walking
⚠️ Permanent brain damage from oxygen deprivation
⚠️ Vitamin B12 destruction — leading to serious neurological harm
⚠️ Fatal car accidents — Nangs have already contributed to road fatalities
Right here in Hawke's Bay, at least two people have already been admitted to the ED with nerve damage in just the past few months. These are our kids. Our whānau. Our neighbours.
Selling nangs recreationally is illegal in New Zealand — it carries up to 2 years imprisonment or a $500,000 fine. [They bypass the law by getting people to complete declarations of what they are going to use it for, with little or no checks on the truthfulness of the declaration]. Yet some local shops are still selling them. That ends now.
💪 HERE'S WHAT WE'RE ASKING YOU TO DO:
1. Find out which local stores are selling nangs — ask around, keep your eyes open
2. Do NOT spend a single dollar in those stores until they stop selling this product to our young people
3. Share this post so every family in Hawke's Bay knows what's going on
4. Talk to your kids about what nangs look like and why they're dangerous
5. Report retailers selling nangs to the NZ Medicines Enforcement team at Medsafe: 0800 444 472
Our community came together after Cyclone Gabrielle. We can come together again. Retailers — we are watching, and we will vote with our wallets. Stop selling nangs, or lose our business. It's that simple.

I have availability on my lawn mowing run at the moment, for regular cutting, in the Napier area. My customers include residential and commercial properties and they are happy with the service I provide. Autumn is also a great time to get your lawn sorted, if you need some help. I have also had customers in the past, that were selling their property and needed it tidied and maintained, while on the market.
So if you are interested or need a quote, or know someone that needs help with their lawns? Please contact me.
You can reach me at 027 3731310 or Bradley.mw@gmail.com
Have a great day!
Michael from Blade Lawns.
