Pests and properties in Rustenburg
Rustenburg lies on the hot bushveld plain below the Magaliesberg, where long warm summers keep cockroaches, ants, termites and mosquitoes busy and winters are mild and dry. The platinum belt means mine hostels, single quarters and contractor camps, which need rodent control, bed bug treatment and cockroach service in bulk. Homes and complexes in Safari Gardens and the older suburbs, guesthouses and lodges around the Pilanesberg and Sun City road, and busy township kitchens in Boitekong and Tlhabane also call. Snakes are common in gardens near the ridge. Operators serve the area from Rustenburg itself, with bigger crews coming from Pretoria and Brits along the N4.

Typical cockroach control requests in the area come from:
- Factories, warehouses and mines: canteens, loading areas and drains treated, with cardboard storage moved off the floor
- 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
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: tea rooms, canteens and storerooms treated after hours with low-odour baits
