Pests and properties in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg lies in a warm, wet basin in the Midlands, with hot humid summers and cool, dry winters with frost on higher ground. Termites are a common concern in older brick and timber homes in Scottsville, Clarendon and Hayfields, and cockroaches and rodents trouble restaurants, student housing and rental flats near the university and the city centre. Dairy, timber and food businesses around Mkondeni and Willowton, and farms and lodges toward Howick and Hilton, ask for rodent and insect control. Fleas and ticks are often raised by pet owners in summer. Pest controllers serving the area commonly work from the city or travel in from Durban.
Typical bed bug treatment requests in the area come from:
- Homes and families: a bedroom treatment with a mattress encasement and a second visit about two weeks later
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: treatment between tenants and neighbouring units, with a report for the lease file
- Restaurants and food businesses: staff accommodation and rest areas checked, away from the kitchen and stores
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: farm worker housing and seasonal staff rooms treated in rotation
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: room and adjoining-room treatments, with an inspection log for hotels, lodges and guesthouses
- Factories, warehouses and mines: mine hostels and worker accommodation treated in blocks with repeat inspections
