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 termite control requests in the area come from:
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: treatment of thatch roofs, decks and timber chalets at lodges and guesthouses
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: inspection of ceilings, door frames and timber floors in shops and offices
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: an inspection and treatment before a lease, with a report that covers the timber structure
- Homes and families: trenching around the house walls or a bait system, with a guarantee of several years
- Restaurants and food businesses: treatment of timber roofs and wall cavities, with records for the owner and insurer
