Explanation

Fruit Flies
By:Faith

Screenshot 2015-03-05 at 12.36.16.pngFruit flies are destroying and harming our vegetation.  These insects are stopping New Zealand from selling our best products globally.  Many countries will not buy New Zealand’s fruits or vegetables if fruit and vegetables are infested with fruit flies. It will affect our economy. We need to get rid of these fruit flies and destroy them. The job of eradicating fruit flies is harder than you think.


MPI (Ministry for Primary Industries) are asking everyone, not to remove any fruit, vegetables or garden waste in the affected area. If you are to take fruits or vegetables out of your home only take store bought fruits and vegetables, but not home grown. These are only true in the affected area. Don’t move these off your property, only the secure bins given from the Ministry for Primary Industries are situated 200 metres away. If you think you have seen or found any fruit flies note down the location, catch a sample if you can and dial MPI. Freephone 0800 80 99 66.


Fruit Flies lay eggs only in ripening fruit.
Be extra careful with all fruits and vegetables including: Tomato, Capsicum, Pumpkin, Marrow, Courgette, Avocado, Olives and Eggplant. Berries and even weeds and trees. Fleshy fruits nuts like walnut and macadamia.



If you see or find maggots in ripe fruit put the fruit in a plastic container and crumple up several tissue paper, put the lid on.

Infestation

Infestation


Have you ever wondered what will happen if there is infestation on earth? Well Infestation has caused a lot of things that you might never have known.

Infestation caused by insects damage our fruit and plants just like the fruit flies. Infestation has a big effect  to the economy. So no more countries will buy our best products.

Our nutrition would be affected then we wouldn't have enough food and we would start to starve and we might die.

It would also be harder to eradicate because insects like fruit flies are laying eggs in our fruit so there will be more insects to get rid of.

Head lice are another infestation, they are little insects which like to overspread in a human’s scalp. Head lice are very common with children. Head lice have been infesting for thousands of years.

We need to stop Infestation so we don’t spread diseases!

Book Review 1

Chinese Cinderella

Chinese Cinderella is about the life of Adeline Yen Mah. Adeline’s life was very hard. She was called “Bad luck” because when she was born, two weeks after her mother passed away. Her family would never remarried to a young lady named “Niang”. She would always say nasty things like “When you grow older you get uglier and even uglier”. Adeline always had this question in her head “What did my mama look like?’’. But her father had ordered for all her mother’s pictures destroyed.

My favourite character is Aunt Baba because she loved Adeline Yen Mah so much, she was like another mother to Adeline. But except Nicer than “Niang”.

I rate this book five stars. I recommend this book for 10+.
