You can help Project Island Song
Stop! Check! And then Go! And have Fun!
You can help keep the islands free of pests by carrying out some simple checks before departing from the mainland if you are heading to, or sailing around, Ipipiri (islands of the eastern Bay of Islands).

- Check and clean all stores, equipment, daypacks and camping gear and keep them properly sealed before leaving for the islands. This will ensure they are free of rodents and ants.
- Keep your boat rodent-free. If you know you have a rat or mouse onboard, don't land on the islands or tie up to them until you have got rid of it.
- If you see pests on the islands or need advice about pests on board your vessel, please call DOC +64 9 407 0300 during office hours or 0800 DOC HOT after hours.
