Pests and properties in Welkom
Welkom is a goldfields town on the flat northern Free State plain, with hot summers, cold dry winters and large farms of maize and sunflower around it. Rodents follow grain and feed into stores and homes, and cockroaches and ants are constant in kitchens and flats. Mine hostels, compounds, guesthouses and rental rooms in Thabong and Virginia need bulk cockroach, bed bug and rat control. Ageing buildings and empty properties bring pigeons and rodents, so bird proofing and cleaning are common requests. Farmers book grain store and silo fumigation after harvest. Operators serve the area from Welkom itself and from Bloemfontein, with Klerksdorp crews sometimes covering the north.

Typical flea control requests in the area come from:
- Factories, warehouses and mines: yards, loading areas and guard huts where stray animals bring fleas near staff
- 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
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: kennels, dog sleeping areas and farmhouse floors, using products suited to working dogs
- Restaurants and food businesses: rare indoors, but staff areas, storerooms and the yard are treated where a stray animal visits
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: guest rooms and pet-friendly cottages treated between stays, with the kennel and lawn included
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: carpet and upholstery treatment where an office dog or a stray cat has been
