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.

Typical cockroach control requests in the area come from:
- Homes and families: a gel bait treatment of the kitchen and bathrooms, with a follow-up visit after three weeks
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: treatment between tenants and across a whole block, so roaches do not move from unit to unit
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: quiet night-time treatments of kitchens, laundries and rooms for guesthouses and hotels
- Restaurants and food businesses: bait stations, crack treatment and records for restaurants, takeaways and bakeries facing an audit
- Factories, warehouses and mines: canteens, loading areas and drains treated, with cardboard storage moved off the floor
- Exporters and freight forwarders: warehouses and cold stores checked so stored cargo stays clear of roaches
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: tea rooms, canteens and storerooms treated after hours with low-odour baits
