Bit of a dusty job , Strangely we don,t see as much in Ag Ops , few years back they were regulars in around the Christchurch port hills , the areas close to CHCH are now life styled blocks with a limited size , cheaper to have the truck spray and considering Canterbury is ideally suited for that cheaper option now .
