Alligator weed found at Ruapuke Beach
A new Waikato outbreak of one of the world's worst weeds has been discovered at Ruapuke Beach.
Alligator weed - an aquatic and land-based pest plant - is a serious threat to waterways, wetlands and productive farm land. Under the region's pest management strategy it is targeted for total eradication at an annual cost of $220,000.
It's believed the new infestation at Ruapuke - fortunately spotted by a Department of Conservation officer familiar with the plant - may have been spread by fishermen using contaminated nets, said Waikato Regional Council biosecurity officer Wendy Mead.
"We will be ensuring that this small site of alligator weed is removed promptly," said Mrs Mead.
"We would ask that west coast beach users keep a look out for alligator weed this summer following this discovery."
Alligator weed does not set seed in New Zealand but is spread by bits of the plant being moved around. Stems can break easily and it only takes a small fragment breaking off to form a new plant. It is being spread around the region by soil movement, contaminated agricultural equipment - such as diggers and harvesters - and by water users such as eel fishermen or other boat users.
