Unfortunately a second fruit fly has been found in a trap at Northcote Point, not far from where the previous fly was caught 🙁
That is the third fly caught on the North Shore: 1 in Devonport; 2 in Northcote Point.
There is no change to the Northcote/Birkenhead Controlled Area Notice (CAN) zones at this stage. Please continue to adhere to the restrictions in place for the movement of home grown fruit and vegetables, and keep an eye out for this invader! If you find something suspicious, please call 0800 80 99 66.
