Do it for the natives (birds, lizards and invertebrates) - sign up to become predator free!
Kia ora neighbours, it's Brittany and the Community Outreach team from Predator Free Wellington.
We are close to finishing our Phase One rat and mustelid (stoat/weasel) eradication on the Miramar Peninsula. Our Phase Two eradication involves 19 suburbs - from Kilbirnie around to Ōwhiro Bay and up through to the CBD.
We're looking for household sign-ups in these suburbs. This involves the installation of traps/bait stations on or near your property. It's FREE and the devices are FULLY SERVICED by our team.
Our team will be working in Houghton Bay, Island Bay, and Ōwhiro Bay over the next few weeks. We will be pounding the pavements, knocking on doors, putting up posters - and getting people excited about becoming predator free.
Sign up now online - and spread the word! Or get in contact with our team by calling 0800 NO RATS.
