Are your knees giving you a hard time?
See how Peter Williams found help from using a NZ made relief cream.
After retiring from our TV screens after 40 years, veteran broadcaster Peter Williams, still gets up at 5am each weekday morning to prepare for his morning radio show.
Peter Williams explained, “Look, I’m 65. When I get up the body’s often a bit on the stiff side. “
Peter Williams claims, “Within 10 minutes, the pain was gone. I felt so much better. My body was nice and relaxed, and I was ready to go off and do my day’s work.”
“I’ve been using Relief Fx by Koru Nutrition. It’s New Zealand made, natural and best of all it works .”

Have you ever been sitting in the bathroom, minding your own business (or perhaps doing your business) only to be interrupted by bugs? If it's not one of those slow, dopey blowflies, it's a mosquito waiting to make its move on your bare skin.

In summer flies, bugs, spiders and insects can be a real pain… sometimes literally.
Exceed insect & fly screens are the perfect solution to get rid of these troublesome insects...
A retractable insect screen for the bathroom is a great idea. You can pull the screen across when you open the window to keep bugs away. And use the loo and shower in peace. That way you can ventilate your bathroom without letting bugs getting into the rest of the house and keep the breeze flowing through the house, even at night, without worrying about moths, mozzies and blowflies stalking you at night.
We can also help you find the perfect mosquito screen for your bedroom windows, so you can enjoy a good night's sleep without having to fight that irritating mosquito buzzing in your ear.
