What you can do about kauri dieback
Do your part to protect healthy kauri trees and prevent the spread of kauri dieback.
Visiting areas with healthy kauri trees
- Clean your footwear, tyres and equipment before and after visiting our kauri forests. If you are walking your dog, you should also make sure you clean their paws.
- Use cleaning stations every time you pass one while you are walking in a park.
- Stay on the tracks and keep off kauri roots.
- Stay away from closed tracks.
- Don't remove soil from, or bring soil into, areas with kauri trees.
Looking after kauri on your property
If you have kauri trees on your property, there are a few things that you can do to keep them healthy.
- Make sure you and your visitors have clean shoes around your kauri. Avoid the roots as much as possible.
- Fence off individual kauri or groups of kauri from people and animals (e.g. livestock), if appropriate.
- Educate yourself on the symptoms of kauri dieback disease. If you see kauri with some of the symptoms, or want to request a tree health inspection on your land, contact us at kauri@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz.
