Pests and properties in Gqeberha
Gqeberha has a mild, windy coastal climate with rain through the year, so pests are active in most months, with a peak in the warmer months. Cockroaches, ants, rodents and silverfish are common in flats and older homes in Summerstrand, Walmer and Newton Park, and bed bugs are a concern in guesthouses and student accommodation. Food processors, motor industry suppliers and warehouses in Struandale, Markman and Coega use regular pest control. The port and the Coega Special Economic Zone handle exports and imports, including citrus and other produce, so container fumigation is often requested. Teams normally work from across the metro, including Kariega and Despatch.
Typical flea control requests in the area come from:
- Homes and families: a spray of carpets, beds and the stoep, with the vet treating the pets the same day
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: a treatment before a new tenant moves in, with a certificate when a pet left fleas behind
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: guest rooms and pet-friendly cottages treated between stays, with the kennel and lawn included
- Restaurants and food businesses: rare indoors, but staff areas, storerooms and the yard are treated where a stray animal visits
- Factories, warehouses and mines: yards, loading areas and guard huts where stray animals bring fleas near staff
- Exporters and freight forwarders: seldom needed, except staff housing and offices at depots where strays shelter
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: carpet and upholstery treatment where an office dog or a stray cat has been
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: kennels, dog sleeping areas and farmhouse floors, using products suited to working dogs
