Pests and properties in Pretoria
Pretoria is warmer and more sheltered than Johannesburg, and its jacaranda lined suburbs hold many older homes with timber roofs and ceilings. Waterkloof, Brooklyn, Arcadia and Muckleneuk see borers, subterranean termites and rodents in roof voids, and swarms of flying ants follow the first heavy summer rains. Hatfield and Sunnyside have student housing and flats where cockroaches and bed bugs are common, while government buildings, hospitals and offices need scheduled pest programmes. Silverton, Waltloo and Pretoria West have food producers and workshops that call for hygiene audits. Many pest controllers serve both Tshwane and Johannesburg, so quotes are easy to compare.
Typical termite control requests in the area come from:
- Homes and families: trenching around the house walls or a bait system, with a guarantee of several years
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: an inspection and treatment before a lease, with a report that covers the timber structure
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: inspection of ceilings, door frames and timber floors in shops and offices
- Restaurants and food businesses: treatment of timber roofs and wall cavities, with records for the owner and insurer
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: treatment of thatch roofs, decks and timber chalets at lodges and guesthouses
- Factories, warehouses and mines: soil treatment before a new factory slab and bait checks around storage yards
