WHAT IS BIOLOGICAL
CONTROL?
Biological control of weeds uses one
living organism to control another. Weeds
are generally not native to New Zealand
so for some weeds their natural enemies
can be imported to help restore the
natural balance between the weed and
the wider environment.
The Taranaki Regional Council is part of a
national collective which provides
research, advice and assistance on
biological control of pest

Herbivores - Medium Extensive possum habitat in the vicinity. Situated on edge of
Egmont National Park which receives regular periodic possum
control and situated within the Taranaki Regional Council Possum
Self Help area. Goats are in extremely low numbers in the ENP.
Weeds - Low Current incidence of ecological pest plants is very low. The site is
situated adjacent post-harvest exotic forest land, which could give
rise to increased risk of
streams/rivers (i.e. wadeable) which
have beds predominantly composed of gravels and cobbles. These are the environments
where periphyton impact most on human values and contribute to aquatic food chain.
The MfE guidelines specify that for aesthetic and ecological health reasons, long algae
filaments should not exceed 30% coverage of the river bed, and thick algae mats should not
exceed 60%.
To determine the state of the region’s streams and rivers with regard to periphyton, the
Council monitors
