Pests and properties in Mpumalanga
Mpumalanga mixes a warm, frost-light Lowveld with a cooler Highveld, so the pests differ across the province. Around Mbombela, White River and Hazyview, heat and humidity favour termites, mosquitoes, cockroaches and snakes, and guesthouses and lodges often need bed bug and cockroach treatment. Citrus, subtropical fruit and vegetable farms and packhouses face rodents and stored product pests, while maize farms on the Highveld need silo and grain store treatment. Mining and power towns such as eMalahleni, Secunda and Middelburg have hostels, canteens and workshops with rodent and cockroach problems. Peaks follow the rainy season from October to March, and in malaria areas mosquito advice should come from a qualified person.
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
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: gardens, braai areas, pool equipment and kitchens treated without upsetting guests
- 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
- Restaurants and food businesses: bait placed away from food zones, with records of each visit for the audit file
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: a treatment before a new tenant arrives, with a follow-up visit for returning trails
- Exporters and freight forwarders: yards, pack houses and warehouse walls checked so ants do not get into stored cargo
