Introduced species have their pros and cons. While some can help provide or maintain habitats, encourage pollination, or support new growth, others can become invasive and overwhelm native ecosystems. Can the usefulness outweigh the risk? Find out more about the role introduced species can play in ecological compensation in our most recent blog

At the same time, when introduced species begin threatening native biodiversity, targeted and humane pest management tools like the BT200 and BT250 range can help protect vulnerable taonga species and restore balance to our ecosystems.

One of the main goals of Ecological Compensation is to increase diversity, which helps ecosystems have higher resilience to change - they can keep functioning through different circumstances.

There are many techniques used to counteract the negative impacts of human involvement that can't be avoided or minimised from the start: restorative planting to mitigate loss of habitats or specific species, pest control to prevent further loss, as well as habitat creation and protection. Discover the tools and tactics that are used to protect the balance of our ecosystems.

Happy Outdoor Classroom Day! 🌿

Last week on 21 May, schools all over the world participated in getting outside and learning about nature. We loved seeing so many people connecting with the environment and inspiring the next generation of kaitiaki.

Let us know what you did to get involved!

Outdoor Classroom Day!!! - 21st May 2026

Did you know that spending time in nature can improve your hauora?

Mental and physical wellbeing, as well as mood, are linked to being outside enough.

Outdoor Classroom Day is an initiative across the globe to help children get that necessary fresh air and Vitamin D - and engage with their learning through nature.

Our latest blog goes into why this is important and how it's relevant to all of us

What role can pest control play in protecting our native wildlife?

Pest control, trapping, and tracking are some of the most effective ways to reduce the impact of invasive predators and give our native species the chance to thrive.

In Aotearoa, many of our taonga species evolved without mammalian predators - which means even small improvements in predator control can have a big impact.

Done well, pest control isn’t just about removal.

It’s about restoring balance, supporting biodiversity, and creating safer environments for our wildlife to recover and grow.
That’s where the right tools - and the right approach - make all the difference.

With Connovation’s range of innovative, science-led solutions, it’s easier to carry out targeted, effective, and more humane pest control.

Whether you’re managing a backyard, a farm, or a large-scale conservation project, there’s a tool designed to support better outcomes.
