I'd never want to cause one unnecessary pain or suffering, which is why we've chosen to manage pests in our home with traps. It's not ideal, but it's better - and safer - than poison. I've done a little research on humane, effective vermin control during the wet months, when they like to come in from the cold. Take a look:

"As vets we don't get any subsidies from the Government to reduce the costs of animal care and it's been a long-held dream of mine to create a service which provides vet care to those who might otherwise struggle to afford it," she said.
"Pets are so important for wellbeing and especially in uncertain times when we can turn to our pets for a source of comfort and routine."
Bagheri is currently developing a plan for the community vet service and is keen to hear from others who would like to be involved in the project.

The Hurunui District Council’ claimed a storage building had been constructed on a rural Amberley site without consent by the tenant, Ian Ffitch, and told him to remove the containers from the property.
Determinations manager Katie Gordon said the council was correct in saying the roof should have had a building consent, but that could be rectified by removing the roof, which Ffitch has since done.

I'm working on a travel story for Stuff about the things that have surprised returning Kiwis about New Zealand. If you have recently returned from overseas or know someone who has, it would be great to hear about the things that have stood out for you, for better or for worse. Whether it's to do with the weather, the cost of things, the public transport, the food, the housing, the people or something else entirely, we'd be keen to hear about it. Please remember that your comment may be included in the article, unless you say you don't want it to be. Thank you.

"My neighbour Ann, a retired special ed teacher, goes the extra mile for her community. On her neighbourhood walks she notices blocked drains, or dangerous pavements on school routes and spends time phoning the Council to get them fixed. She is part of a local group that petitioned for new school crossings on Takanini School Road. She volunteers at the local school for free maths tuition. She sets a really great example of looking out for her community and makes the world a better place."
