Check the changes to fruit fly zones before you pack that lunch box. 🍇🍏🍍🥥🍌🥕🥑🥝🍑🍐🍉‼️Important changes to fruit fly restrictions in the north-east 🪰 🍎🍊🍌🥭
The north east suburbs are in a unique spot with around half of our suburbs inside a fruit fly suspension area (yellow) and the other half outside (green) and not currently impacted by the restrictions.
This has left many families confused about what you can and can't pack in lunch boxes.
Changes have now been made and will hopefully make it easier to understand:
🟢 If you live in a GREEN area, and go to school/work in a YELLOW area you can take fruit and veg that fruit fly like into the yellow area, but you cannot take it back into the green. (example - if kids don't eat all the fruit in their lunchbox whilst at a yellow area school, and you live in a green area, you will need to dispose of the fruit inside the yellow zone).
🟡 If you live in a YELLOW area, and go to school/work in a GREEN area, you can’t take the fruit or vegetables that fruit fly like out of the yellow area and into the green area.
With a number of local schools very close to both sides of the suspension area it's important you check what restrictions apply to you. I understand it’s difficult for some who live just inside the yellow zone and only a few hundred metres away is your school that is in a green area and you can't pack your child’s favourite fruit as a result.
Hopefully, with no further outbreaks, restrictions will be lifted soon and our State’s horticultural industry will stay strong. For further info please head to: pir.sa.gov.au/biosecurity/fruit_fly_in_sa/faqs#movingfruit
