Pests and properties in East London

East London has a humid, warm coastal climate with rain in most months, so cockroaches, ants, termites, mosquitoes and rodents are active for long periods. Flats, homes and takeaways in Quigney, Vincent, Nahoon and Beacon Bay, guesthouses along the coast, and rental housing in Mdantsane often need cockroach, bed bug and rodent treatment. The port and the industrial development zone handle exports and imports, so container fumigation and cargo treatment are sometimes needed. Motor industry suppliers, food processors and warehouses on the Buffalo River side use regular contracts. Dairy and pineapple farms nearby also call for rodent and insect control. Teams usually work from East London or Gonubie.
