Pests and properties in Bloemfontein

Bloemfontein is a Free State capital with cold, dry winters, hot summer thunderstorms and a mix of old sandstone homes, student housing and government buildings. Mice and rats move indoors in winter, while the warmer months bring termites, ants, flies and cockroaches. Landlords near the university and in Brandwag and Langenhoven Park book treatment between tenants, and hospitals, schools, guest houses, restaurants and food depots keep regular schedules. Old timber roofs and floors in the older suburbs can hide wood borer. Farms across the surrounding maize and wheat land fumigate grain stores and control rodents. Operators serve the city and the wider province, including Botshabelo and Thaba Nchu.
