Pests and properties in Upington
Upington lies on the Orange River in the hot Kalahari, where irrigated vineyards, date palms and raisin farms sit beside red desert sand. Rodents follow crops and dried fruit into sheds and packing houses, birds nest on roofs and in lofts, and cockroaches and ants thrive in the heat in town homes and lodges. Snakes and scorpions are common near the river and in gardens. Raisin, grape and date exporters need fumigation and pest records for their buyers, and guesthouses and lodges around Kakamas and Keimoes book regular service. Winters are short and dry, so summer is the peak. Operators work from Upington and cover the river valley, with some coming from Kimberley.
