Why is Pest control in Cape Town such a highly requested service? Simply because Cape Town is known to be one of the top tourist attractions and one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
It’s for this reason that so many people flock to “The Mother City” annually for vacations or to relocate here.
The Cape is an ever-growing city and no matter where you drive/live you’ll quickly notice the ongoing developments in many of our suburbs.
This constant movement and development also means a disruption in the ecosystem for insects and rodents causing them to have fewer natural habitats thus forcing them to relocate to new homes and harbourage areas too.

German Cockroaches
German roaches are usually the small brown roaches found in your kitchen.
Poor hygiene is an aggravating factor and usually makes solving the problem harder.
German roaches are the rapid breeding species that reproduce millions of baby roaches in a single year.
The female roaches carry round egg capsules, named an oothecae, which is attached to their abdomens until they are ready to hatch.
Each ootheca capsule contains 30–48 eggs and females can reproduce multiple times in their lifetime.

American Cockroaches
American roaches are the big flying roaches usually found outside in your sewerage drains.

You NEED to open all the drain covers and any manholes on your property to effectively eradicate these American roaches.
Oriental Cockroaches
Oriental roaches prefer dark, damp places that are close to any exposed timber.
They are round in shape or long thin and dark with long wings.
You need to do a thorough inspection to locate their breeding and nesting grounds and do a proper fumigation treatment with a good Pyrethroid based chemical.
Rodent Eradication Cape Town
Winter months are the worst time for rodent infestations in Cape Town.
Due to the extreme cold and rainy weather we experience in Cape Town, rodents tend to move to higher ground to escape the cold wet inclement weather.
Thats when they find their way into your warm roof with its cosy insulation which creates the perfect nesting and breeding grounds.
If you have a rat problem and need a rat exterminator, book online and we’ll contact you ASAP.
How do you know if you have rats?
A tell-tale sign of rats are scratching and heavy thumping i.e running, sounds in your ceiling boards at night.
Rats are nocturnal which means they are dormant during the day and very active at night, which is mainly when you’ll hear them running around in your attic or ceiling.
If you have a pool and a citrus or any fruit tree nearby, you are a prime candidate for rats to move in.
DON’T DELAY, CONTACT US ASAP! Rats will literally destroy your entire house if left alone.
They will gnor through water pipes, electrical wires, wood, pastic, you name it!
How do you know if you have Mice?
Mice are similar to rats and also seek higher grounds during the cold and wet winter months.
Mice will seek out your kitchen and go straight for your breakfast cereals, rice, and baking powders.
If you notice small thin dark (Looks like chocolate sprinkles) substances, these are mice droppings.
Do not hesitate to contact us immediately because they will cause a lot of damage and contaminate all your expensive Woolies food if ignored.

They will rip up and destroy your beautiful lawn in no time.
Don’t delay contacting us to sort your mole problem out quickly and safely.
If you woke up to a lawn filled with runner mole tunnels, you need to act fast.
- The mole is hunting in your garden for grubs, worms, and other edible insects.
- After we have some heavy rain in the Cape you’ll notice many new mole tunnels.
- This is because they surface to feed on all the active worms in the moist soil after all the rain.
Moles are territorial but will move between properties and hunt on different patches of lawn between your property and your surrounding neighbours if they are alone in the area.
They will usually live near a large tree with lots of shade where they build their nest underground and operate from there via their extensive network of tunnels.

They can live anywhere people live, like hotels, motels, apartments, dorms, schools, hospitals, nursing homes, and offices.
Bedbugs often hide in mattresses, box springs, pillows, and blankets, but they prefer to nest in hard surfaces like the wooden or metal frame of a bed.

Ant Control Cape Town
Ants are very small but highly intelligent crawling insects that live all over the Western Cape, Cape Town.
You see them more often when it’s warm out.
You might see ants crawling around inside your house or outside foraging for food.
Ants like to make their nests near places where they find water, like puddles, pools, ponds, or wet grass.
- Ants love to eat things with sugar, protein, or carbohydrates, depending on the season and time of year.
- If you don’t get rid of them, these pests can damage homes, gardens, and businesses.
- To keep ants from coming inside, seal any cracks in your home’s foundation, basement floor, and crawl spaces.
- Seal areas under the eaves, decks, porches, gazebos, and sheds.
- To effectively eradicate the ant colony you also need to locate the nest and then apply your treatment. You should never spray or throw any poison directly into the nest as the ants will quickly relocate the queen ant to protect her. They will also reject any poisonous food you attempt to feed them. The ant scouts need to “FIND” the food and feed it to the Queen ant. Once she dies the entire colony will perish.

Termite & Beetle Inspection Services: WDO
If you suspect a Carpenter Ant or Termite infestation, it’s crucial to act quickly.
At Verm-Tech, we use targeted treatments and fumigation for wood borers that are effective against the pests while minimizing impact on the environment.
For carpenter ants, we might use baits or direct chemical treatments.
To control termites, we often employ a combination of soil treatments and bait systems.
We offer WDO (Wood Destroying Organism) Inspections with Compliance Certificates.
In a recent case in Claremont, we successfully eliminated a carpenter ant infestation using a combination of targeted sprays and bait stations.
The homeowner was relieved to save their beautiful wooden staircase from further damage.
We can apply similar fumigation techniques for beach houses to eradicate insects and other WDO pests successfully.
Mosquito Eradication Cape Town
Mosquitoes are more than just a nuisance – they can transmit dangerous diseases and ruin outdoor gatherings.
At Verm-Tech, we understand the importance of keeping these pesky insects at bay.
That’s why we’ve compiled this comprehensive guide on how to keep mosquitoes away, both inside and outside your home.
Read more about our Mosquito breeding prevention Cape Town homeowners guide here
Seal the Entry Points
The first line of defense against mosquitoes is to prevent them from entering your home in the first place.
Our team of experts recommends patching up any holes or gaps in window and door screens, caulking cracks, and using weather stripping to seal gaps under doors.
Remember to keep doors closed whenever possible to minimize the chances of mosquitoes sneaking in.
Natural Mosquito Repellents
If you do find yourself with an indoor mosquito problem, fear not! Verm-Tech has a few tricks up our sleeve.
Camphor is one of the best natural mosquito repellents out there.
Simply place a camphor tablet in a small bowl of water and position it in the affected room.
The strong odor will drive mosquitoes away.
Replace the camphor every 2-3 days to maintain its effectiveness.
Eliminate Breeding Grounds
Mosquitoes only need a few drops of water to reproduce, so it’s crucial to eliminate any standing water around your home.
Check plant saucers, flower vases, bathroom and shower areas for potential breeding grounds.
If water is necessary, like in a dog bowl or vase, be sure to change it daily.
Outdoor Lighting Adjustments
Porch lights and door lights can attract mosquitoes, and they may find their way inside when the door opens.
To avoid this, keep outdoor lighting off or dim, or replace white bulbs with yellow ones.
Essential Oil Repellents
Many essential oils are known for their mosquito-repelling properties.
Some of the most effective scents include lemon or citrus, rosemary, sage, lemon eucalyptus, lemongrass, lavender, geranium, peppermint, spearmint, citronella, and cinnamon.
You can use these oils in a vaporizer or diffuser to fill the room with their aroma, or apply them topically as a natural bug spray.
Citronella Power
Citronella oil is a tried-and-true mosquito repellent that can both kill and drive away these pests.
Look for citronella candles or use the essential oil in your vaporizer or diffuser for maximum effect.
Mosquito-Repelling Plants
Certain plants can act as natural mosquito deterrents.
Holy Basil, or Tulsi, is a great option that you can grow in containers around your home.
Rub the oil on your skin for an effective personal repellent.
Peppermint plants also have a strong scent that mosquitoes dislike. Plant them alongside your other houseplants or use peppermint essential oil in a vaporizer.
Garlic Power
Garlic is a natural mosquito killer and repellent, thanks to its strong odor.
Incorporate more garlic into your cooking to reap the benefits – the cooking aromas will drive mosquitoes away, and eating garlic will help prevent bites.
Mosquito Traps
If all else fails, a simple mosquito trap can quickly solve your indoor mosquito problem.
Mosquitoes are attracted to water, which they need to breed.
Create a trap by placing a small bowl of soapy water (1 pint of water with 5-6 drops of dish soap) in a discreet location in each room.
The water will lure them in, and the soap will trap and drown them, preventing the next generation.
At Verm-Tech, we’re committed to providing effective, eco-friendly pest control solutions.
By combining these proven methods, you can create a mosquito-free environment and enjoy your home without the constant buzzing and biting.
Contact us today to learn more about our mosquito control services and how we can help you reclaim your outdoor spaces.
Fly Eradication
House Flies and Fruit Flies can be a real nuisance, buzzing around your home and potentially spread diseases.
At Verm-Tech, we understand the importance of keeping these critters at bay, which is why we’ve compiled a list of effective methods to get rid of flies inside your property.
Read about our 10 ingenious homemade fly trap ideas here
DIY Fly Traps
One of the most efficient ways to eliminate flies is by creating your own custom trap.
Simply mix two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, one tablespoon of sugar, and a few drops of dish soap in a container. Cover the container with plastic wrap or tin foil, and poke a few holes in it.
The sweet smell of the vinegar will attract the flies, while the soap will break the surface tension of the liquid, causing them to sink and drown.
Sticky Fly Paper
Fly paper is a classic solution that works by using a sticky, pheromone-laced surface to trap flies.
When a fly lands on the paper, it becomes stuck and eventually dies, providing a simple yet effective way to reduce the fly population in your home.
Bait Traps
Another option is to create a trap using baits like syrup, sugar water, rotten fruit, or even eggs.
The strong, enticing scent of these food sources will lure flies into the trap, where they’ll meet their demise.
At Verm-Tech, we believe in providing our clients with a comprehensive range of pest control solutions, including effective DIY pest control methods for dealing with flies.
By combining these proven techniques, you can reclaim your indoor spaces and enjoy a fly-free environment.
