[IshaalK]

What my assumption is that the GC will dock somewhere at the very end of this month.

Is your car on Glovis Stinkship?

If you Google "stink bug" you'll find dozens of articles. The bug attacks some 300 crops, including citrus fruit trees.

Fumigation of cargo vessels uses these chemicals (ref The Ultimate Stink Bug Season Guide [2022/23 Update] | International Cargo Express):

• Sulfuryl Fluoride Fumigation
• Methyl Bromide Fumigation
• Heat treatment

This article from the Aust Gov almost has some important information https://www.agriculture.gov.au/biosecurity-trade/import/before/brown-marmorated-stink-bugs NZ Gov also has the same / similar treatment process https://www.mpi.govt.nz/dmsdocument/30212/direct

Once the bug is in our country and impacting our crops, this article covers multiple methods you can use at home / in your garden, including natural and pesticide/insecticide treatment. 5 Ways to Kill a Stink Bug - wikiHow

When we get our Tesla's, I suspect there is no guarantee that a stink bug might have survived in your car somewhere (most likely the undercarriage). Given these bugs can fly, I guess I'll have to be vidulant and check my garage/house/garden for the pest and use the natural soapy-water method of killing them.

Looks like a thorough wash as soon as it comes home.... that's when it comes home...

Hi, that guy works as traffic control for the FICT Department, he doesn’t know what’s going on as communication with the GC is very poor. Keep in mind I get the AAT Documents early before public release. As of right now, I won’t be saying anything until it has been confirmed from QShips and the GC.

It'll take just over 30 hours to get to PK, so if it doesn't leave Qld waters soon, arrival date for Thursday at 8am was another holder.

Yeah Stinky ship indeed… sigh

You can go right ahead and ignore anything you see in the PK schedule for now. The only authoritative record of planned/approved ship movements at this point is QSHIPS: Public Pages. If it ain't listed there, it ain't going nowhere. Everything else is an estimate/placeholder/wishful thinking.

I have been called upon to deliver sweet justice against the Stinky bois.

Interesting that your MELB EDD date is a few days earlier than my SYD date. The waiting game continues.

Ha i have one of those bug-a-salt things. Very cool way to dispatch flies, spiders etc

 

[IshaalK]

Even the shipping company doesn't know when its docking somewhere, I feel something bad is happening

"doesn't know" or "won't tell"? Maybe the earlier suggestions that we had two more weeks of "quarantine" (from mid-Nov) is roughly correct. We'll find out by the end of the month I guess.

They don't have any communication with the Glovis Caravel.

I want one for Christmas the bugs will have no chance.

Sounds to me more like a deliberately blunt reply to make it clear that they don't want Tesla customers contacting them directly.

If they give any information at all, they're more likely to receive more and more enquiries.

I never stated I was a customer of Tesla and didnt even say the word Tesla in my email.

I guess it's only Tesla that gives the shipping information to its customers, so since you knew your car is there, they assumed you are a Tesla customer.

Most likely it will sit there for another week and we may see movement as December hits. The PK schedule is (speculation) definitely a placeholder as all the previous ones were. The ship seems to be in shambles and the docks can't do much either....

Sigh. My excitement for this has waned to apathy at this point.

 

[IshaalK]

I'll be suprised if we see hear any positive news before December, might be a miracle.

Just another placeholder has been set at the Portauthourity Portkembla website, its 28Nov still at 8am. From what I reckon, the real date will the next one pushed.
