Pests and properties in Johannesburg
Johannesburg is a large, mixed city, so pest work varies widely from one area to the next. Older suburbs such as Parkview, Melville and Observatory have timber floors and roof voids where borers, rodents and flying ants settle, while the dense flats of Hillbrow, Berea and Yeoville struggle with cockroaches, rodents and bed bugs. The inner city and southern industrial areas have food outlets, warehouses and workshops that need regular programmes and compliance certificates. Harvester termites and flying ants appear after the first Highveld summer rains, usually from October. Property managers, body corporates, landlords, restaurants and offices are the usual callers, and many pest control teams work across the whole metro.

Typical snake removal requests in the area come from:
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: a prompt callout for tenants, with advice on rubble and rodents the landlord can fix
- Homes and families: a handler to catch a snake in the garage, roof or garden and release it alive
- Restaurants and food businesses: removal from storerooms and loading areas where rodents attract snakes, with a written callout record
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: quiet, discreet catching in gardens, pool areas and chalets without alarming guests
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: removal from car parks, courtyards and school grounds, with safety advice for staff
- Factories, warehouses and mines: catching snakes on mine and plant grounds, in stockpiles and around warehouse docks
