Wasp wipeout - can you help?

Last summer we embarked on an ambitious project to make a dent in the wasp population in the Nelson region. We fundraised and were able to lay 390km of bait lines in some of the region's most popular recreational areas, effectively making 10,000 hectares wasp free.

This summer we are delighted to announce we are expanding the programme to other parts of the country which are also affected by high wasp numbers. Vespex is laid in bait stations in late January and February when wasps change to a protein-based diet. It is of low toxicity and safe for bees. Results from last summer showed it has a 95%-99% success rate.

While a small amount of work is Government funded, we're going to raise more funds to get as many areas baited as possible, and we need your help. Go to our Popshop page to contribute to a wasp-free region

So join us in the battle. The more we raise the more areas we can cover.

Young boy standing and sitting on the road in James street Tuesday night

Sonia from Whakatane District

I just wanted to thank all those people who stopped to try to help the young boy on the road in James street.
It was wonderful to see people trying to help him, a lady standing beside him to make him visible to traffic and the gentleman who was flagging down traffic.

I just wanted to thank all those people who stopped to try to help the young boy on the road in James street.
It was wonderful to see people trying to help him, a lady standing beside him to make him visible to traffic and the gentleman who was flagging down traffic.
Thankyou to the police officers who arrived so quickly after my call and without lights and sirens which i think would have made things worse.
This little man was walking and sitting on the road in the dark, walking in front of cars wearing dark clothes, he wouldn't let anyone help or move him off the road.
It was a very scary moment and i hope the situation was resolved in his best interests.
I love seeing this side of our community ...
