Pests and properties in Worcester
Worcester sits in the Breede River valley, a warm, dry farming region with hot summers, cold wet winters and frost on the surrounding mountains. Fruit and wine farms, packhouses, cold stores and cellars face rodents, fruit flies, ants and stored product pests, and snake removal is often needed in warm months. In winter rodents move into roofs and kitchens, and in summer flies and ants are more active. Homes and rental housing in Worcester, Avian Park and Zwelethemba, and eateries, shops and clinics, call for cockroach and rodent control. Exporters of fruit usually use Cape Town for container fumigation. Teams normally work from Worcester or Paarl, with farm visits planned around harvest.
Typical pest control requests in the area come from:
- Farms, grain stores and smallholdings: treatment of farmhouses, workers' quarters and feed stores, with rodent control around sheds
- Restaurants and food businesses: monthly visits with bait station maps and records for audits and health inspections
- 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
- 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
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: quiet scheduled visits for guesthouses and lodges, with rooms treated while guests are out
