Fly dumping at the back of Taharangi Street.

Malcolm from Rotorua Central

Fly dumping at the back of Taharangi Street. This rubbish is visible on Google Maps; what a dreadful advert for Rotorua! The council refuse to do anything about this because they maintain it is on Maori land, therefore not their problem.

Reporter Rotorua News

Tobacco product prices went up 10 per cent after the latest tax hike on January 1. So how much more do smokers have to fork out now? Enough to buy a basketload of groceries, it seems.

Great beer key to Brew's appeal

Reporter Rotorua News

Having good beer as your pub's USP – unique selling point – might seem rather obvious.
But back in 2011, however, it was almost a novelty.

But back in 2011, however, it was almost a novelty.
When Brew Craft Beer Pub opened its doors in Rotorua, the domination of bland offerings from the country's two major brewers, Lion Nathan and DB, held sway in the majority of watering holes across New Zealand.

Howdy all. Here at Wasp Wipeout we thought we'd give you some information on how to deal with the wasp that most populates urban gardens - the paper wasp.

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
