Pests and properties in Secunda
Secunda is a planned Highveld town of regular suburbs, a large petrochemical works and maize land all around. Its cold dry winters push mice and rats into homes and sheds, and its summer rain brings flying ants, termites, flies and mosquitoes near the vleis. Homeowners in Secunda and Trichardt, tenants in Embalenhle and landlords of rental flats call for cockroach, bed bug and rodent control. Contractor camps, canteens, guesthouses and shops need scheduled service, often with records for client audits. Farmers nearby fumigate grain stores and silos after harvest. Operators reach the town from Secunda itself, from Bethal and from Johannesburg and eMalahleni by road.
Typical container fumigation requests in the area come from:
- Homes and families: rarely needed, except for a household move shipped overseas with antique wooden furniture
- Factories, warehouses and mines: treating machinery crates and wooden dunnage, with a certificate for the shipping line
