Questions people actually ask
How do pest control businesses get more work?
Availability wins almost every job. A customer who has just seen a rat or a swarm wants it dealt with today and will book the first business that confirms a time, rarely comparing prices at all.
Is pest control seasonal in South Africa?
Strongly. Rodents move indoors with the cold, and insects spike with the first rains — enquiry volume can double in those weeks, which is exactly when call-outs are missed.
