Kaharoa Kokako Trust is undertaking pest control in the Kaharoa conservation area using pindone and targeting ship rats. This year bait will be laid twice - in August and December. Warning signs will be up and it is safe to use the forest but any scavenging dogs may be at some risk of secondary poisoning if they are allowed to eat dead animals. Please see their summary of the upcoming Kaharoa Kokako Trust pest control operation for 2022, below. KKT are also asking for helpers to lay the bait this Saturday, 6 August 9am. Please find following details about the workday from Graeme Young:

On Saturday the 16th of July the Kaharoa Kōkako Trust will be collecting tracking cards which will have been left out in tunnels in the forest the night before.
