Researchers from Victoria University are on the hunt for Waikato properties to set traps as part of a project aimed at keeping the country safe from mosquito-borne diseases coming from across the ditch.
Backed by the Ministry for Primary Industries, the project is targeting high-risk areas—including Northland, Auckland, Bay of Plenty, and Hawke’s Bay—to keep a close eye on mosquito activity.
What do you think—are we ready to take on the mozzies, or is it a lost cause?

If someone contacts you unexpectedly – whether over the phone, through the post, by email, on a website, in person or on social media – always consider the possibility that it may be a scam.
Scammers target lots of people, often for small amounts of money. They constantly evolve their approach making scams harder to spot. Most scams come from overseas, but they may pretend to be locally based — from a reputable company, bank, or government agency, or even from your friends on social media if your account has been hacked. It is very difficult to get your money back once it is sent overseas.
Scams hurt us all. You can protect yourself and others by learning how to spot scams, share what you see and report them.
Figure out if you are being scammed: Use these questions to help figure out if you have been targeted by a scammer.
