Pokeno Pestbusters

Bluff Road Conservation Group

It started in 2017 with a group of people living along Bluff Road who got together to restore ecosystems on their land.  We have greatly expanded our target area since than, and are now using the latest smart trap technology alongside more traditional methods to clear pests on this side of the Waikato.  Anyone in the Pōkeno area is welcome to join this project, and we have special expertise in methods that work for large lifestyle blocks/small farms.  Please drop us a line if you are interested.
