Hi there! We had a different kind of surprise for Easter. When we reached out in the pantry to surprise our toddle with a chocolate bunny, we discovered it with tiny teeth marks and it’s head gnawed. Definitely a mouse!

When we reached out in the pantry to surprise our toddle with a chocolate bunny, we discovered it with tiny teeth marks and it’s head gnawed. Definitely a mouse!
This is the first time we noticed something like this. Luckily our 4yo didn’t mind the mouse getting the treat but we’re obviously not to keen on the company. Think they might be nesting in the garage (it’s an old rental so not the most sealed basement and garage) and we think we see some droppings there 👀
Any ideas on what we can do? And leads on pest control options in this lockdown? Should the landlord be looking into this as well?
Thank you and happy Easter!

Here are some tips we've put together below:
1. Keep your weight down
Obesity is linked with osteoarthritis (loss of cartilage in the joints), which commonly affects knees and hips. Carrying too much weight can also lead to varicose veins. Varicose veins are not life-threatening but they look unsightly and can be painful.
2. Walk
Exercise is very important for the health of your legs. Walking is an excellent way to tone the muscles in the leg, reduce body fat and improve circulation. Aim to walk 30-45 minutes daily, this can be done in bursts through the day.
3. Put your feet up
Standing or even sitting all day can lead to swollen legs and ankles.
Being inactive causes circulation problems. Normally when you walk, the blood is pumped back towards your heart and swelling is reduced. Putting your feet up for just ten minutes a day can help.
4. Check for changes in moles
The leg is a common area of the body in which malignant melanomas can develop. Be vigilant and check regularly for any changes in colour, size or shape of moles.
A yearly mole check with your GP is recommended.
5. Eat a healthy low-fat diet
Sometimes described as your 'second heart', your leg veins help pump blood back up to the heart. Nutritionally, the same rules apply for healthy leg vein circulation as for a healthy heart. Cut back on saturated fat and sugar, make sure you have enough fibre in your diet to maintain normal bowel motions.

With numerous gigs, concerts and festivals postponed or cancelled as a result of the level 4 response, we want you to dance the lockdown away with the new Neighbourly Spotify Playlist! Make your suggestions in the comments below - recommend anything you like on there, as well as tunes you think your Neighbours will enjoy. Chuck in some taste-breakers, one-hit wonders or some good old Kiwi classics - it really doesn’t matter. So if you’re running out of ideas on things to do, why not a dance party?
Just remember: keep it PG, refrain from putting any songs in the mix that may cause offence to your Neighbours. You can find the playlist here.
Happy raving NZ!

If you want an appointment for a phone consult please phone the clinic number and the receptionist who is manning the phone from home will book you in.
Southern Cross has stated that they will cover telehealth consults but if you are with another insurance company then you will need to check with them whether they will also cover them. The cost will be on the same basis as ordinary consults. The phone number is 09 459 1739 and the skype name is the email address river.women@xtra.co.nz
