Pests and properties in Free State
The Free State is grain country, with maize, wheat, sunflower and livestock farms around Bloemfontein, Bethlehem, Welkom, Kroonstad and Sasolburg. Silos, grain stores, feed mills and farm sheds attract rodents, weevils and moths, so grain store fumigation and rodent control are common requests. Summer storms bring termites, flying ants and flies, and cold dry winters push rats and mice into houses and flats. Bloemfontein has student housing, offices and hospitals, and Sasolburg and Welkom have industrial plants and mine hostels with regular programmes. Guesthouses along the N1 route book bed bug and cockroach treatment. Distances are long, so ask early and plan treatments before harvest.
Typical ant control requests in the area come from:
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: farm stores, dairy sheds and orchards treated, including ants that tend aphids on crops
- Homes and families: a kitchen bait treatment with a perimeter spray and nest drenching in the garden
- Factories, warehouses and mines: control panels, loading bays and paved yards treated with dusts and baits
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: a treatment before a new tenant arrives, with a follow-up visit for returning trails
- Restaurants and food businesses: bait placed away from food zones, with records of each visit for the audit file
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: gardens, braai areas, pool equipment and kitchens treated without upsetting guests
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: break rooms, reception areas and server cupboards treated with dusts and gels
