Moth Plant weed infestation - Help!
Hi all,
I'm in need of desperate advice or help..
We've noticed a strong presence of the infectious weed, Moth Plant at our neighbours land, and I did what I could to eradicate it from my end, but yesterday I discovered that it's spread all over our land - literally everywhere!
Most of the area it's engulfing is at a cliff top which I can't reach without endangering myself.. Part of that clifftop is considered a wildlife reserve too, if that helps in any way.
I'm afraid that we're going to end up with tens and tens of bulbs now because of this, and the possibility of other natural vegetation dying off which is not only a danger to the reserve, but to the integrity of the clifftop as many of the plants hold it together.
What can I do? I can't win this war by myself and need help.. Is this something the council can (would/should?) assist in? Or do I need to call a professional to deal with it at my own expense? Or maybe volunteers that would be willing to assist?
This is based around the start of Tiri Road, overlooking Matakatia beach.
Appreciate your feedback.

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
