There’s up to $20,000 worth of bugs hiding around Mackay… and we need YOU to find them!

Over four big weeks, Star will be hiding bugs across Mackay and dropping clues to help you track them down. Each bug comes with its own slice of the $20,000 cash prize and once a bug is found, we move straight on to the next one and the next lot of cash!

Here’s the twist: we’ll release clues revealing the bug’s location… but guess carefully. Every time someone calls in with the wrong location, the prize pool shrinks.
So do you lock in your guess early or wait it out and risk someone beating you to it?

Here’s what to do-

Step 1. Stay tuned to Star101.9

Step 2. Listen out for our clues throughout the day to uncover the hidden bug location.

Step 3. Think you’ve cracked the clue? Call 1300 891 929 when you hear the cue to call and tell us where the bug is hiding!

Step 4. If you guess right- you win your share of $20,000!

Stay listening, trust your instincts, and let your inner spy‑hacker loose.
