Pollinators, Predators and Pests

The vast majority of the insects we see every day are beneficial or benign. I hope this group will provide a forum to discuss the insect world and all the wonderful and occasionally devastating ways the bugs interact with our gardens.

Tell us about your garden and what you're growing
We're on a big parcel of land that is part established garden from the early 1900's when the house was built and part raised vege garden on the back lawn (7 beds). Aren't currently growing much as we have the house on the market and intend returning to N.Z. to live (hopefully) on Waiheke! I moved away in the 70's but we have family in Auckland and Northland and would like to be nearer to them.

Hi, If any Ooooby residents of Waiheke know of any properties coming onto the market in the 400 mark, with at least two bedrooms and a sleepout or a garage - studio would be even more fantastic - plus room to plant a vege garden - would they please let us know. We're looking to shift over there in about ten months. Many thanks.

Should have said, we need the extra room as my husband Vic is an artist and I'm a glass artist/jeweller. Thanks again.
