We'll be posting a few Winter Efficiency Tips over the next two months.

Our first tip is to choose a heater that suits the room and your needs. Portable electric heaters are 100% efficient, but heat pumps can be more than 300% efficient. Consider heating only the room you are in rather than the whole house.

Choose a heater with a thermostat which cycles on and off, and a timer. This helps maintain an even, constant temperature.

A lot of mahi is going on to remove wilding pines around Te Taitokerau Northland. Where today you may see trees turning brown, in future these landscapes will be restored.

This is thanks to huge efforts around the region by Iwi Trusts, community groups, volunteers and workers, in coordination with Northland Regional Council. It's all part of the National Wilding Conifer Control Programme. If you have questions about wilding pines locally, talk to Northland Regional Council or visit the website.

To learn about the removal of wildings from Taharoa Domain and why we need to prevent the spread, visit wildingpines.nz

A new email scam impersonating the NZTA is being sent around telling vehicle owners their licences are due.

The email directs the recipient to renew the funds through clicking a 'Renew Now' button at the bottom corner of the email. It then takes the individual to fake website that gets them to fill in personal details.

CERT NZ, the government authority responsible for cyber security said in a tweet, that anyone who receives this email should report it directly to Waka Kotahi (NZTA).

How to spot a phishing scam:
- NZTA will only send an email through if an individual has contacted them first.
- Email addresses will always end in @nzta.govt.nz, @enews.nzta.govt.nz or @reply.nzta.govt.nz.
- The email may be missing specific details that the NZTA will have on file: such as your plate number, the date your vehicle license is due and vehicle make and model.
- Hover over buttons and links to see if the pop-up will take you to a genuine government (.govt.nz) website

Neighbourly will update this message as further information comes to hand.
