Visit from Environment Canterbury and Biosecurity

Today we had an interesting talk about the history of different pests in NZ and what is being done to control them. We also found out about a number of other pests which are present here in Canterbury, or are currently being actively targeted by Biosecurity.
e.g. Chilean needle grass, Alligator weed, Pampass grass, stink bugs, magpies and rooks, Velvet Leaf, Parrot's Feather and Lagrosiphon (an aquatic weed).
