Pests and properties in George
George lies below the Outeniqua Mountains on the Garden Route, with mild temperatures and rain through much of the year, so pests are active in every season. Cockroaches, ants, silverfish and rodents are common in homes, flats and eateries, and damp spells encourage mould and wood-destroying insects. Termites and wood borer affect older timber homes and sheds in George, Blanco and Wilderness. Guesthouses, holiday rentals and hotels along the coast, and the busy tourist trade, need bed bug and cockroach control, especially in the December holidays. Timber, dairy and farm businesses nearby ask for rodent and insect control. Teams often work from George and travel to Mossel Bay and Knysna.
