Used for personal photos & the like, must be the same kind as 'Better the devil you know' and I am not technically minded! Price negotiable I hope.

Mouse in the house

John from Tawa

After finding an electrical cable that has been chewed by mice I went on the offensive and bought some traps from Envirotools a couple weeks ago. I bought one that mounts into the ceiling and is accessed from below and 2 mice/rat traps.

After finding an electrical cable that has been chewed by mice I went on the offensive and bought some traps from Envirotools a couple weeks ago. I bought one that mounts into the ceiling and is accessed from below and 2 mice/rat traps.
We have caught one mouse in the kitchen, 9 in the roof and a rat under the house in just 2 weeks. I had heard that if you see a mouse in the house you will have multiple in the roof but I hadn't thought it would be anything like that. The really cool thing about the ceiling one is that when the trap goes off a little red button pops down and lets you know it's sprung so you don't have to keep checking it
With so many different traps available it's nice to find one that works really well

Green thumbs are being asked to watch out for a beautiful but toxic flower that could be growing in their backyards.

What you need to know:
- Every part of the plant is poisonous, and can cause gastroenteritis, thirst, paralysis, blindness, and heart and kidney failure.
- This plant is hardy and normal pest control efforts are often not enough to eradicate.
- The cape tulip, growing up to 90cm high with one strap-like leaf, was introduced to Aotearoa in the 1940s, the Ministry for Primary Industries’ manager for pest management John Sanson said. “Cape tulips, like many of these invasive weeds, are really attractive ornamental species ...but they escape over people’s backyard fences and into pasture, as these things often do,”
- It was classified as a noxious plant in the late 1970s after they were discovered to cause harm to livestock and humans, even killing animals when too much as ingested.
- The salmon-pink flowers bloom for about two days a year between June and December, and have previously been an ornamental species for keen gardeners.

Sanson urged people who believed they had the weed growing on their property to leave it untouched and contact Biosecurity New New Zealand’s Exotic Pest and Disease on 0800 80 99 66.

Once a site was confirmed, manual removal or chemical treatment would start.

Why Leonie loves lawn bowls

Malvina Major Retirement Village

For the uninitiated, lawn bowls may just look like a bunch of people throwing balls up and down a flat piece of grass.

But for Evelyn Page Retirement Village resident Leonie, it is a game of skill that has brought her 40 years of friendship, camaraderie and many fun-filled experiences and memories.

So much so, that she has dedicated most of the last 20-plus years to umpiring the game. It is her way of giving back, she says, and now she is lending those skills to the upcoming trans-Tasman inter-village Ryman Roll Up.
