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.
