Thanks re guava moth and backyard orchards
Hi Neighbours. Re my issue with the dreaded guava moth which lays eggs on all kinds of fruit. You may remember my plea during summer to pick up and destroy windfall fruit. Many thanks to those who did. By breaking the cycle in the early part of the season, it meant less damage in the latter part. The recent fruit season was the best I've had since the guava moth scourge hit us. I eliminated about 200 guava grubs, drowned in a bucket of water. Late in the season I had about 10% of plums untouched, and about 50% of peaches. Good work. We must fight back. Take care, David H.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
