Pests and properties in Alberton

Alberton sits on the southern East Rand, with a broad industrial area in Alrode and Meyersdal and a ring of older suburbs and growing townships. Factories, workshops and food processors in Alrode need pest programmes for rodents, flies, cockroaches and stored product insects. Older suburbs such as New Redruth, Brackenhurst and Randhart have homes with timber roofs and gardens where termites, borers and flying ants are regular callers. Dense housing and flats toward Thokoza and Katlehong face cockroaches, rodents and bed bugs. Meyersdal and the nature reserve ridge bring snakes and moles into estate gardens. Clients are factory managers, landlords, homeowners and estate bodies, with teams based locally or in Germiston.

Typical tent fumigation requests in the area come from:

  • Factories, warehouses and mines: tenting timber-framed buildings and stores, or gas treatment of a stack of timber
  • Landlords, agents and body corporates: a clearance and report so a landlord can show the timber is treated before new tenants arrive
  • Homes and families: tenting a house for drywood termites that have spread through roof timbers and cupboards
  • Restaurants and food businesses: rarely tented while trading; usually a closed-day treatment of roof timbers or a stock room
  • Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: tenting a guesthouse or lodge in a quiet season, with wooden decks and thatch assessed
  • Offices, schools, clinics and shops: treating an older office building or a school hall with infested roof trusses
