Pests and properties in George
George lies below the Outeniqua Mountains on the Garden Route, with mild temperatures and rain through much of the year, so pests are active in every season. Cockroaches, ants, silverfish and rodents are common in homes, flats and eateries, and damp spells encourage mould and wood-destroying insects. Termites and wood borer affect older timber homes and sheds in George, Blanco and Wilderness. Guesthouses, holiday rentals and hotels along the coast, and the busy tourist trade, need bed bug and cockroach control, especially in the December holidays. Timber, dairy and farm businesses nearby ask for rodent and insect control. Teams often work from George and travel to Mossel Bay and Knysna.
Typical bird control requests in the area come from:
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: keeping pigeons off terraces, entrance canopies and outdoor dining areas without harming them
- Homes and families: spikes on a garage lintel, mesh under solar panels and pigeons kept out of the roof void
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: proofing balconies and roof edges in complexes where droppings foul washing lines and walkways
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: netting for packhouses and feed stores, and proofing pigeon roosts above grain and silo bins
- Restaurants and food businesses: netting over loading bays and delivery areas, with cleaning records for food safety audits
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: spikes along building ledges, roof gutters and covered entrances to stop fouling
- Factories, warehouses and mines: netting beneath high roof trusses, spikes on gantries and a clean-up of old guano
