Tips to protect biodiversity in your garden

Protect your backyard birdsong

Love seeing tūī, pīwakawaka and kererū in your garden? Come and learn how to keep them safe!

Drop in and meet the friendly team from Pest Free South Auckland and discover simple, practical ways to protect your backyard birds, veggie garden and compost from common pests like rats, mice and possums. These invaders can cause real damage—but with the right tools and know-how, you can make a big difference.

We'll also have expert advice on how to identify and manage pest plants, so your garden can truly support native wildlife.

Free rat traps available!
If you live in the Papakura or Manurewa Local Board areas, you could take home a free rat trap (limited numbers available). Not in those areas? No problem—we can connect you with your local conservation group to help you get set up.

Whether you're just getting started or already on your pest-free journey, come by for a chat—we're here to help!
