If you're dealing with a pest problem in Knysna, our termite treatment service is designed to find the source, treat it properly and stop it coming back.
Termites cause silent damage. Subterranean termites travel from the soil through foundations and wall cavities to feed on skirting boards, door frames, floors and roof timbers. Across the drier parts of the Western Cape, harvester termites also strip lawns and grazing, leaving bare patches and small soil heaps.
Why is it a problem in Knysna?
Knysna's humid lagoon and forest setting, holiday homes and timber-rich houses encourage damp-loving pests, rodents and wood-attacking insects.
The Garden Route is wetter and greener than most of the Western Cape. Humid forest and lagoon towns like Knysna, Wilderness and Sedgefield see more damp-loving pests, rodents and spiders, while the hot, dry Klein Karoo around Oudtshoorn and Calitzdorp has more termites, ticks and scorpions. For areas outside the Cape Town metro, WhatsApp us to confirm scheduling.
