Pests and properties in Newcastle

Newcastle in northern KwaZulu-Natal has warm summers with thunderstorms and cold, dry winters with frost, which pushes rodents indoors in the cooler months. Steel, textile and other factories, warehouses and the busy retail areas call for regular pest control, and food outlets and clinics usually need records. In Madadeni, Osizweni and the older town suburbs, cockroaches, bed bugs and rodents are common in dense housing and rental rooms. Termites and flying ants appear after the first summer rains. The surrounding farms keep grain, feed and livestock, and need rodent, insect and snake control. Pest controllers often travel in from Newcastle itself or from Gauteng and Durban for larger jobs.

  • 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
  • Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: keeping pigeons off terraces, entrance canopies and outdoor dining areas without harming them
