Pests and properties in Randfontein

Randfontein is a small mining and farming town on the far West Rand, ringed by mine dumps, open grassland and smallholdings. Old mine houses and compounds, hostels and worker accommodation in the area often struggle with cockroaches, rodents and bed bugs, and the grassland around town supports rats, mice and snakes that move into sheds and stores in winter. Smallholdings and feed merchants deal with rodents and stored grain pests, while homes in Greenhills and the town centre see termites and ants. Flying ants swarm after summer storms. Clients include mine housing managers, farmers, landlords and local shops, and most work is done by teams based in Randfontein or Krugersdorp.
