How can you help keep our parks and islands pest free
Whakanewha Regional Park is pest-free and we need your help to protect its pristine environment.
Before your stay:
- Check your gear and footwear for stowaway pests - rats and mice, plague skinks, and Argentine ants.
- Clean your gear and footwear to remove soil and seeds. This will help prevent the spread of weeds and plant diseases such as Kauri dieback.
- Seal your food in containers.
