Pests and properties in Tzaneen
Tzaneen is a warm, humid subtropical town among the avocado, mango, banana and citrus farms of the Letaba valley, so pests are active for most of the year. Fruit and packing sheds fight rats, flies and fruit-attracting insects, and the export growers need clean records for their buyers. Cockroaches, termites, ants and mosquitoes trouble homes in town, and snakes and bees are frequent call-outs on farms and plots. Parts of Limpopo are malaria areas, so ask an operator and a health professional about mosquito control and precautions. Lodges and guesthouses at Magoebaskloof and Haenertsburg also book service. Operators work from Tzaneen and Polokwane, about an hour away.
Typical cockroach control requests in the area come from:
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: farm kitchens, packhouse canteens and worker housing treated with baits
- Exporters and freight forwarders: warehouses and cold stores checked so stored cargo stays clear of roaches
- Homes and families: a gel bait treatment of the kitchen and bathrooms, with a follow-up visit after three weeks
- 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
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: treatment between tenants and across a whole block, so roaches do not move from unit to unit
- Factories, warehouses and mines: canteens, loading areas and drains treated, with cardboard storage moved off the floor
