Pests and properties in East London
East London has a humid, warm coastal climate with rain in most months, so cockroaches, ants, termites, mosquitoes and rodents are active for long periods. Flats, homes and takeaways in Quigney, Vincent, Nahoon and Beacon Bay, guesthouses along the coast, and rental housing in Mdantsane often need cockroach, bed bug and rodent treatment. The port and the industrial development zone handle exports and imports, so container fumigation and cargo treatment are sometimes needed. Motor industry suppliers, food processors and warehouses on the Buffalo River side use regular contracts. Dairy and pineapple farms nearby also call for rodent and insect control. Teams usually work from East London or Gonubie.
Typical pest control requests in the area come from:
- Homes and families: a once-off treatment with a follow-up, then a quarterly visit to keep cockroaches and ants away
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: a treatment between tenants and a service report to put on the lease file
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: quiet scheduled visits for guesthouses and lodges, with rooms treated while guests are out
- Restaurants and food businesses: monthly visits with bait station maps and records for audits and health inspections
- Factories, warehouses and mines: warehouse and plant visits covering rodents, stored product insects and flies
- Exporters and freight forwarders: pest checks of packing areas and depots so cargo is not rejected for live insects
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: after-hours service of kitchens, storerooms and ceiling voids using low-odour products
