What we do ...

NZ Bushpest has a large pool of experienced and professional workers that are employed on a contract-to-contract basis.  

The wide skill set and flexibility our team offers means we can provide a tailored approach to your conservation project countrywide.  When working on public or private land our team strictly follow and apply set procedures within an ever-changing, challenging landscape.  

As technology advances, so does the range of tools NZ Bushpest uses to enhance our control methods.

We currently use:

• GPS/GIS Mapping technology – the latest in topographical mapping systems for quality assurance and accountability
• Motion cameras – sensory field cameras that pick up animal movement (useful for monitoring densities, gauging control method effectiveness)

To help with the information flow required in control operations we have created:

• Online Landowner database – to capture information gathered from landowners (landowners can login and enter own details)
• Online information – a webpage for stakeholders  to inform them about our latest contract
• Extranet – to share documents quickly and easily with contract principals, landowners, iwi, suppliers, workers and other stakeholders

Sustainability is what we’re about – that’s why we have an Environmental Management System (EMS) which is Enviro-mark Gold accredited.

Owned and managed by Landcare Research, Enviro-mark is a five-step programme which aligns with ISO 14001:2015; the world’s best-known environmental standard.

NZ Bushpest achieved Enviro-mark Gold in 2014 after progressing through the Bronze and Silver levels.  Reaching Gold level ensures we:

• comply with current relevant legislation.
• identify, evaluate and manage our environmental aspects and impacts.
• make measurable improvements to our environmental performance.
