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 cockroach control requests in the area come from:
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: quiet night-time treatments of kitchens, laundries and rooms for guesthouses and hotels
- 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
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: farm kitchens, packhouse canteens and worker housing treated with baits
- Restaurants and food businesses: bait stations, crack treatment and records for restaurants, takeaways and bakeries facing an audit
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: tea rooms, canteens and storerooms treated after hours with low-odour baits
- Factories, warehouses and mines: canteens, loading areas and drains treated, with cardboard storage moved off the floor
