Now that is just too weird Bob, when someone says "dickhead", I don't think your response was the best one to make here fella, for multiple reasons, innuendo can be a bitch, just like karma!

Hah! Sounds like you guys know very familiar territory. Hail from a rough old timber town a few dozen clicks from Rotorua, grew up out on the coast between Opotiki and Whakatane. Was a possumer for 8 or so years in late 80s to late 90s winter-skinning aussie pests for damn good money (if the o/heads were low) in the Urewera bush (FIFO work NZ style - Robinson R22, wool fadge swinging below stocked with food for a month!) and out of Opotiki. A great wee town. The Stag and Boar bar on skin-buying day :eek: :D I think Opotiki had the highest number of people named C Ash on skin-buying day. The bar and the take-away counter did a roaring trade cashing all those cheques. :)
We can probably spare a few salties, cane toads, snakes & spiders, if you would like a bit more ecological diversity.
Nah, we'll take a pass on them Andy. Should also mention wallabies are a pest over here too. The hopping variety not the Hooper variety. :angel:
Occasional redback seen in amongst shipping containers etc. Had a fruit fly scare a few months back. The ex-brother in law could easily qualify as an unwanted aussie pest too :D.
Not another k1w1 having a whinge about things being different here or why things are better back in NZ...
I just cant figure out why 85% of them are here???
Apparently Kiwi taste like chicken, can I trap Kiwis(the bird BTW) and eat them if I go over for a holiday to meet some relos eh??
Baz.
sure, but you would probably be done for breaking and entering, since the only Kiwi you could fined would be in a ZOO.
No my post started because i have gotten myself in a bit of poo
Opossum in the roof, so a kiwis natural reaction was to deal with the problem.
apparently this is not the way things are done here.
with out thinking, i assumed what is a pest there is a pest here.
would not have been a problem if i did not skin them
