Pests and properties in Johannesburg
Johannesburg is a large, mixed city, so pest work varies widely from one area to the next. Older suburbs such as Parkview, Melville and Observatory have timber floors and roof voids where borers, rodents and flying ants settle, while the dense flats of Hillbrow, Berea and Yeoville struggle with cockroaches, rodents and bed bugs. The inner city and southern industrial areas have food outlets, warehouses and workshops that need regular programmes and compliance certificates. Harvester termites and flying ants appear after the first Highveld summer rains, usually from October. Property managers, body corporates, landlords, restaurants and offices are the usual callers, and many pest control teams work across the whole metro.
Typical weed control requests in the area come from:
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: tidying of common areas, pavements and parking bays between tenants or before an inspection
- Homes and families: weeds killed in paving and driveways, a selective lawn treatment or a cleared boundary strip
- Restaurants and food businesses: weeds cleared around buildings, bins and drains to remove cover for rodents and insects
- Hotels, guesthouses and lodges: gravel paths, paving and lawns kept neat for guests, with products suited to pets
- Offices, schools, clinics and shops: car parks, kerbs, paving and landscaped beds kept clear on a seasonal contract
- Factories, warehouses and mines: total herbicide on gravel yards, rail sidings and fence lines, with residual cover for months
