Do it for the natives (birds, lizards and invertebrates) - sign up to become predator free!

Predator Free Wellington

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.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
