Pests and properties in Boksburg

Boksburg combines large logistics parks, cold stores and food distributors with a dense belt of older suburbs and flats. Around Jet Park, Anderbolt and Witfield, warehouses handling food and consumer goods deal with rodents, stored product insects, flies and birds, and customers often ask for audit ready records. Parkdene, Boksburg North and Reiger Park have crowded flats and houses where cockroaches, rats and bed bugs spread between units, while Sunward Park and Beyers Park have family homes with gardens and termites. Boksburg Lake draws mosquitoes and rodents to the nearby edges in summer. Clients include warehouse managers, landlords, body corporates and restaurant owners, with many teams working from Germiston and Kempton Park.

Typical container fumigation requests in the area come from:

• Factories, warehouses and mines: treating machinery crates and wooden dunnage, with a certificate for the shipping line
• Restaurants and food businesses: treating packed dry food, dried fruit, nuts and spices before export or after import
• Landlords, agents and body corporates: not usually relevant, apart from furniture or goods being shipped in a container
• Homes and families: rarely needed, except for a household move shipped overseas with antique wooden furniture
• Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: treating wooden decor and furniture for a lodge fit-out arriving from abroad
• Exporters and freight forwarders: exporters of timber, grain, fruit and goods on wooden pallets needing a certificate to match the bill of lading
