Pests and properties in Welkom
Welkom is a goldfields town on the flat northern Free State plain, with hot summers, cold dry winters and large farms of maize and sunflower around it. Rodents follow grain and feed into stores and homes, and cockroaches and ants are constant in kitchens and flats. Mine hostels, compounds, guesthouses and rental rooms in Thabong and Virginia need bulk cockroach, bed bug and rat control. Ageing buildings and empty properties bring pigeons and rodents, so bird proofing and cleaning are common requests. Farmers book grain store and silo fumigation after harvest. Operators serve the area from Welkom itself and from Bloemfontein, with Klerksdorp crews sometimes covering the north.
Typical ant control requests in the area come from:
- Factories, warehouses and mines: control panels, loading bays and paved yards treated with dusts and baits
- 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
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: farm stores, dairy sheds and orchards treated, including ants that tend aphids on crops
- 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
