Pests and properties in Gauteng
Gauteng is the busiest market for pest control in the country, with dense suburbs, flats, townships, offices and industrial parks. Summer rains on the Highveld bring flying ants, harvester termites and flies, while cockroaches and rodents are a year-round problem in blocks of flats, restaurants and food factories. Landlords, letting agents and body corporates in Johannesburg and Pretoria book regular treatments, and food manufacturers in Isando, Wadeville and Midrand need documented programmes for audits. Cold winter nights push rats and mice indoors. Bed bugs turn up in guesthouses, student housing and shared rooms. Most pest controllers work across the metro areas and travel between them daily.
Typical ant control requests in the area come from:
- Homes and families: a kitchen bait treatment with a perimeter spray and nest drenching in the garden
- 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
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: break rooms, reception areas and server cupboards treated with dusts and gels
- Factories, warehouses and mines: control panels, loading bays and paved yards treated with dusts and baits
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: gardens, braai areas, pool equipment and kitchens treated without upsetting guests
- Exporters and freight forwarders: yards, pack houses and warehouse walls checked so ants do not get into stored cargo
