Pests and properties in Eastern Cape

The Eastern Cape runs from the temperate coast around Gqeberha and East London to the dry Karoo and the green Wild Coast. Coastal humidity favours cockroaches, ants, termites and bed bugs in homes, flats, guesthouses and holiday rentals, while the Karoo brings rodents, snakes and scorpions. The ports of Gqeberha, Ngqura (Coega) and East London handle vehicles, citrus and other exports, so container fumigation and warehouse treatment are common. Makhanda and Gqeberha have student housing, and Gqeberha and East London have food factories and motor plants that need regular programmes. Citrus farms in the Sundays River valley and livestock farms inland book rodent and fly control. Peaks follow the warmer months.
