Thanks Paul. So NZ is also a termite free area. :) Well, that's what I thought, but on searching the web I found that we have just declared victory in a battle against Australian invaders: http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/PA0505/S00139.htm And it appears that there are 3 (harmless, do I need to say i...
