Pests and properties in Randburg

Randburg is an established suburban area of homes, townhouse complexes and small business parks, and its pests reflect its age. Ferndale, Blairgowrie, Linden and Northcliff have mature gardens, thatch and timber roofs, so termites, borers, rats in roof voids and ants are regular callers. Around the Randburg CBD and Bromhof, flats, takeaways and small shops see cockroaches and rodents, especially where refuse is stored outside. The rocky Northcliff ridge brings snakes and mongoose into gardens after rain. Flying ants and harvester termites emerge once summer storms begin. Typical clients are homeowners, landlords, body corporates and restaurant owners, and teams cover the area from nearby Strijdom Park and Midrand.
