NZ Catchment Groups Thrive with ‘Source to Sea’ Approach
The most successful catchment groups in NZ are those that have 'a source to sea' approach.
By New Year's Eve, MPI and Biosecurity NZ had successfully located and destroyed 39 queen hornets, 26 of which had been nest building, according to Apiarist's Advocate, thanks to intensive trapping and monitoring.

NZBI says it just wants MPI to think more long-term and more nationwide about the response to the yellow peril.
