Pests and properties in Mpumalanga
Mpumalanga mixes a warm, frost-light Lowveld with a cooler Highveld, so the pests differ across the province. Around Mbombela, White River and Hazyview, heat and humidity favour termites, mosquitoes, cockroaches and snakes, and guesthouses and lodges often need bed bug and cockroach treatment. Citrus, subtropical fruit and vegetable farms and packhouses face rodents and stored product pests, while maize farms on the Highveld need silo and grain store treatment. Mining and power towns such as eMalahleni, Secunda and Middelburg have hostels, canteens and workshops with rodent and cockroach problems. Peaks follow the rainy season from October to March, and in malaria areas mosquito advice should come from a qualified person.
Typical flea control requests in the area come from:
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: kennels, dog sleeping areas and farmhouse floors, using products suited to working dogs
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: guest rooms and pet-friendly cottages treated between stays, with the kennel and lawn included
- Homes and families: a spray of carpets, beds and the stoep, with the vet treating the pets the same day
- Factories, warehouses and mines: yards, loading areas and guard huts where stray animals bring fleas near staff
- Restaurants and food businesses: rare indoors, but staff areas, storerooms and the yard are treated where a stray animal visits
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: a treatment before a new tenant moves in, with a certificate when a pet left fleas behind
- Exporters and freight forwarders: seldom needed, except staff housing and offices at depots where strays shelter
