Trap Giveaway

Saturday 18 February 2023, 11:00am - 1:00pm

Predator Free Herne Bay-Ponsonby are a group of motivated locals who want to see a diverse range of native birds thriving in the area. Rats, stoats and possums eat the eggs and chicks of our native species, so the group is targeting them by establishing a long-term network of active traps in back yards.

If you live in the area shown here and would like to join the group, you can pick up a free rat trap at their forthcoming trap giveaway event.

Date: 18 February
Time: 11am - 1pm
Location: Salisbury Reserve, 19 Salisbury Street, Herne Bay

Each trap comes with a wooden safety box to protect the paws of curious pets and kids. There will be full instruction given on the safe and humane use of traps on the day.

If you can’t make it but would like to get involved, contact Lisa Busch via https://www.pfhb.org
