Pests and properties in Sandton

Sandton is a financial and residential hub where pest control is driven by offices, hotels, restaurants and large apartment blocks. High rise towers in Sandton Central and Rivonia attract cockroaches and rodents through basements, kitchens and shared refuse areas, and discreet service outside business hours is normal. Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside have big gardens with mature trees, so termites, wood borers, ants and snakes are common, and swarms follow the first summer storms. Restaurants and hotel kitchens need regular treatments and hygiene records. Clients are mostly facilities managers, property managers, hotel groups and homeowners, and teams usually travel in from across northern Johannesburg.

Typical tent fumigation requests in the area come from:

  • 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
  • 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
