Protecting Native Species Starts in Your Backyard 🐦🌿

At Proactive Pest Solutions, our clients are helping make a real difference for urban wildlife.
By keeping rodent and pest numbers under control, we’re helping native species such as tūī, kererū, and kōkako thrive – even in town!
While Conservation Week has been and gone (1-7 September 2025), the mahi doesn’t stop! The protection of our unique ecosystems continues year-round — and it’s something we are proud to do alongside our clients, local volunteers, and community partners.

Proactive Pest Stats Snapshot:

🐀 Rodent stations: 1200+ across around 100 properties (last month - August)

🐝 Wasp control: 60 queen traps installed this season + 300 wasp nests treated to date

🦫 Possums removed: 50+ in urban areas alone total to date

Every property on a regular rodent management plan contributes to lower pest numbers and healthier, safer environments.
