Our vision for Predator Free Port Hills is to protect native species and to see their populations flourish in our lifetimes. Ultimately we want the Port Hills to become predator free with thriving native wildlife in our neighborhoods, local parks and reserves, farmland and bush areas. This will also mean no rats scavenging from compost bins, more birds nesting, no more pesky possums eating garden plants, fruit trees and native bush, and more birdsong from a wider variety of birds. Predator Free Port Hills will cover the Port Hills and the urban fringe bounding Banks Peninsula so that our pest control efforts will act as a buffer zone to Pest Free Banks Peninsula.
