5 Easy Remedies To Get Rid Of Snoring
Another family gets together and another possible chance for you to laugh at your uncle’s snoring problem. The thought of waking up neighbor’s dog with Uncle’s snore might seem very funny but the concern might be really serious for him.
When you sleep, your muscles relax and while this happens, your throat gets narrower and tongue falls back. So, when you breathe there is a specific snoring sound that is created. The narrower your throat becomes, louder the sound of your snore gets. Besides the muscle relaxation, there are different other causes such as old age, blocked airways, and excessive neck fat.

Latest scams to look out for 👀
Neighbourly hopes to keep you safe by keeping you informed of the latest scams circulating. This week, we are sharing two common text message scams:
NZTA / Waka Kotahi scam:
- The scam is a text message saying it's from New Zealand Transport Agency Waka Kotahi, and it encourages the recipient to pay an overdue road toll by visiting a fake website, threatening to take the matter to court within 15 days if they don’t pay up.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- While it is not the first time toll payments have been utilised by scammers, the threat of court action could see more people fall victim.
- The sender will either be a unknown phone number or unknown email address.

NZ Post scam:
- This scam arrives by test message and says it's from NZ Post.
- The premise is that delivery of your parcel was unsuccessful so in order to rearrange delivery. you must click on a link to give your correct address.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- NZ Post advises people not to click the link, but to report the message to the Department of Internal Affairs by forwarding it to 7726.
