Don’t flush wipes, keep workers safe.
You might be using more wet wipes to keep your home clean, but it’s very important not to flush them afterwards.
They block up the pipes, which then need fixing immediately. When workers have to leave home to fix blocked pipes, they’re at risk of COVID-19. That puts everyone else in their bubble at risk as well.
Do your bit for workers and their whānau, and put your wet wipes in the bin.

The PICKERS
🌼 Surprising Spring Gardening Tip for NZ 🌼
Bury a banana peel near the roots of your rose bushes or tomato plants! 🍌🌹🍅 The peel releases potassium, phosphorus, and calcium as it decomposes, giving your plants a natural nutrient boost. It helps strengthen stems, promotes flowering, and even improves fruit quality. 🌼🍅
Next time you snack on a banana, don't throw away the peel - use it to supercharge your garden!
