Pests and properties in Richards Bay

Richards Bay has a hot, humid coastal climate, with mosquitoes, cockroaches, ants and termites active for much of the year. The port handles bulk cargo, timber and other goods, so exporters, importers and agents may ask about container and cargo fumigation to meet destination rules. Offices, guesthouses and rental flats in Meerensee and Arboretum, and homes and shops in Empangeni, call for cockroach, ant and rodent control. Sugar cane and timber farms nearby deal with rats and snakes, and storage sheds and grain stores need rodent and insect control. Mosquito control is often raised after summer rains. Teams usually come from Richards Bay, Empangeni or Durban.
