NZ-made pest traps — reusable, effective, and built for Kiwi homes and businesses

Pest Control in Katikati

The flies, wasps and fruit flies common in Katikati — and the reusable, chemical-free traps that handle them.

Katikati pest intel

Katikati's warm, sheltered Bay of Plenty position and surrounding orchards and lifestyle blocks make it prime wasp and fly territory through the warmer months. The town's abundant fruit trees attract fruit flies from late summer, and house flies are active around bins and outdoor living. Reusable, bee-safe traps suit Katikati's growing and beekeeping community.

Buzzy The AI App GotchaPest - AMAZING!!

I have had issues with flies on our lifestyle propeorty for a long time and I bought all those cheap products from Bunnings and Mitre 10 but they never solved the issue. The game changer that this crowd has is the app that has a vast community of recipes. Best of all, they use ingredients from my pantry!

Could see the fly hotspot on my street

Logged my catches on the community map and could see there was a clear fly hotspot on our street — turns out a neighbour had uncontained compost. Got them sorted and fly numbers dropped across the whole street. That's the community angle you don't get from a regular trap.
