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 weed control requests in the area come from:
- 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
- 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
