 Hi there, we're here at New Frontiers 2016 and I'm with Stu Ba, who is one of the co-founders of Good Nature. So what does Good Nature do? We develop conservation technology to increase our ability to enhance our native biodiversity. That sounds fantastic. What sort of technology are you creating? We work in the area of piss control. So we make rat, stoke, possum, hedgehog and mouse traps, and the idea of them is using new technology we reduce the labour input necessary to take pest populations down to the levels where native species can recover. Right so our native bird life can recover from these introduced species that have been brought into New Zealand? Yes and not that long ago there were not millions but billions of birds on New Zealand and with different times of immigration and native pest species being brought to New Zealand, some are extinct, some are nearing extinction and most are pretty well and truly damaged. But we can turn that around purely by getting rid of those pests that do the damage. Right so how do your traps work? We've developed a CO2-powered trap so the logic is to get more than one impact for every human input. So if you think about a traditional trap, you set it, it kills an animal until you reset it again, it can't kill another animal. So we've made a device where multiple animals up to 24 animals will be killed before you have to go back there. That means for every human effort we're getting a huge benefit instead of just the one animal removed from the population. Right so it seems like a much more efficient system than having people walking through the bush clearing traps? Yeah, now it's more like a walk in the park, you know just go out and re-lure it and things like that rather than pulling dead animals out and yuck myself. And what sort of results are you seeing where you've been trialing this technology? Well we developed it with the Department of Conservation, part of their management vision was to partner with us to develop this and they've also then done the trialing to prove that it works and as an example we've now done seven rat control projects, large scale rat control projects with DOC and in all of those they've reduced the rats to the level where they're undetectable. And to put that in perspective DOC has never achieved that with any other trap before. So the results are even better than we dreamed at this stage of the project, but it's not the end. It's only the start. That's fantastic. Are you working with local communities, involving people around the rural areas you're working? Yeah absolutely. So there's a massive shift in New Zealand, just in the ten years this company's been around, every week there's a new community group that starts up to do pest control to enhance their local biodiversity and one of the things we, although we're a pest trap manufacturer, really we're a conservation organization so we provide advice and training and even when we can we go out and help put the traps on the ground. That's what keeps us happy. And how can people find out how to get involved? In conservation in general or with us? With you guys. Go to www.goodnature.co.nz, there's a summary of everything we do on there, there's some cool videos, there's some descriptions of our products and a bit of a description of our vision and what we're trying to achieve. Fantastic. Thank you Stu. You got it. Go to www.goodnature.co.nz and check out how you can help.
