Thank You!

A huge thank you to the Tasman District Council for supporting TET and our fantastic volunteers.  
Thanks to a grant from the Tasman District Council Community Grants scheme we have been able to purchase high vis, first aid kits and coffee making supplies to support the wonderful work of our many volunteers.

Wasps

Donate via Givealittle

Thank you so much to everyone who has made a donation to Wasp Wipeout for Summer 2020. This work is making a huge difference to people's enjoyment of our forests and recreational areas and is so important for the protection of our native species. Due to the disruption of Covid 19 and the resulting restrictions, some planned operations could not go ahead so we were not able to cover as much ground as we had hoped this season. Please be assured that these funds are set aside for Wasp Wipeout and will be used only for that purpose. Any unspent funds will be held over to next wasp season, Summer 2021. Thank you all for your generosity and support!

Practical guide to trapping

Since we first heard this publication was being worked on we have been eagerly awaiting its arrival.  
DOC's 'Predator Free 2050: A practical guide to trapping' offers easy steps to trapping of mustelids (stoats, ferrets, weasels), rats and possums in any environment. It's a simple 'how-to' with advice from DOC's technical experts for trappers of all skill levels.  
​Great work, Thanks DOC!
You can download a copy of the guide, or request a hardcopy from your local DOC visitor centre.
