Pests and properties in Benoni

Benoni is known for its lakes and large gardens, and its pests lean toward the garden and the water's edge. Northmead, Rynfield and Lakefield have mature trees, thatch and timber roofs, so termites, borers, ants, mosquitoes and snakes are common calls, and flying ants swarm after summer storms. Around Crystal Park and Putfontein, smallholdings and plots keep poultry, horses and feed that attract rats and flies. The Benoni CBD and Daveyton have flats and shops with cockroach and rodent problems, while light industry along Rynfield and Northmead handles food and workshops. Clients are homeowners, smallholders, landlords and small businesses, and teams typically work from Boksburg and Brakpan across the East Rand.

Typical grain fumigation requests in the area come from:

  • Homes and families: rarely needed; a small pantry infestation is handled with bait and a clean-out instead
  • Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: treating maize, wheat and sorghum in silos, sheds and bag stacks before sale
  • Landlords, agents and body corporates: not usually relevant, apart from a landlord with a stored grain or feed store
  • Restaurants and food businesses: mills, bakeries and feed makers treating flour, meal and raw material stores
  • Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: seldom relevant, except lodges with large dry food stores treated by a registered operator
  • Factories, warehouses and mines: silos, mills and feed plants with recurring weevils or moths in grain and dust
