Due to popular demand we were approached to install bait
stations in the Wairere section of the gully. This has been done over this
winter. To make management a bit easier, and to allow for the varying floral
types, we have divided Mangaiti Gully into three stages (sections). Mangaiti which
runs from Sexton road to Gordonton Road. Wairere, a short gully section from the
Hukanui Road entrance up to Wairere Drive (see map) and the Hukanui section which is
everything in between these two.
We have acquired the services of two volunteers who are interested
in servicing the bait stations one day every fortnight in the Mangaiti section and logging the service data in TrapNZ . This will greatly decrease the times between servicing the stations with the aim of suppressing the usual summer popular explosion of rats.
