Professional Pest Control Protea Glen
Protea Glen's newer homes sit close together on small stands, and the boundary walls that separate one yard from the next give rats an easy, continuous route straight through the area. Treat one yard on its own and the run stays open for the next rat to use. We seal the runs along your boundary as well as treating, so the route itself is closed.
Protea Glen, Johannesburg
We know what's
bugging Protea Glen.
Pests in Protea Glen aren't the same as pests two towns over. We know the ones that show up here, and we know how to get rid of them. Take a look at what we treat below.
Ants Control
Ants Control
Ants are sneaky. They get into your food and hide deep inside your walls. We find exactly where they’re coming from and stop the whole colony for you.
Spiders Control
Spiders Control
Nobody likes walking into a spider web. Whether they're in the garage or the basement, we clear them out and make sure new ones can't get back in.
Roaches Control

Roaches are tough to get rid of by yourself. We use special tools to find their hiding spots and clear them out quickly.
Rodents Control

Mice and rats can chew on wires and make a big mess. We catch them and seal up any tiny holes so they can’t sneak back into your house.
Mosquitoes Control
Mosquitoes Control
Mosquitoes can ruin a nice day outside. We treat your garden and the places water collects so they stop breeding and stop biting.
Bed Bugs Control

Bed bugs hide in your mattress and bite while you sleep. We use heat and safe treatments to get rid of them so you can sleep soundly again.
Fleas Control

Fleas are tiny bugs that jump on you and your pets. We clear them out of your carpets and bedding to make your home feel clean again.
Silverfish Control

Why our neighbours trust us.
A small stand doesn't mean a small problem. It means whatever is moving along the boundary wall is only ever a few metres from your back door.
Registered and accountable
We are registered as a Pest Control Operator under Act 36 of 1947, so if the work is poor you can take it up with the Department of Agriculture, not just with us.
Randburg based
We work out of Randburg, and Protea Glen is part of our regular coverage. That means a callback here is a short trip, not a scheduling headache.
We close the route, not just the yard
On these newer, closely built stands, rats travel wall to wall between properties. We find where that run crosses onto your stand and seal it as well as treating.
We seal the runs
Bait alone leaves the route along the wall open for the next rat. We deal with the run itself, not only with what is currently on it.

Tell us what you are seeing and where. You get a written quote before anything is booked, so the number you agree to is the number you pay.
We Come to You
We walk the boundary wall on your stand first, looking for the worn paths, weep holes and gaps rats are actually using to move between yards, and treat both what's inside and what's along that route.
We Back Our Work
We seal the entry points we find on your property as part of the same visit, not as a separate quote later.
Stay Bug-Free
If movement starts up again, so do we. You have a written record of what was sealed and treated, so any follow-up starts from what was actually done.
Good work
speaks for itself.
No lock-in contract and no vague verbal promises. A written quote, a boundary-wall inspection, and a written record of the work.
Pest control questions from Protea Glen homeowners
The things people here ask us most, answered straight.
Because your yard was never the only stop. On the smaller, newer stands in Protea Glen the walls between properties give rats a continuous route from one garden to the next, so a rat you bait out of your yard is simply replaced by the next one moving down the same wall line. Bait alone treats a symptom in one property on a route that runs through several.
A run is the worn path a rat repeats along a wall top, through a gap under a gate, or through a weep hole into a cavity. We walk the full boundary of your stand, find where those paths cross onto your property, and close the actual gaps, weep holes, a lifted paving edge, a gap where a pipe passes through the wall, as well as treating. Baiting without sealing just restocks the same doorway.
Yes, though it will need watching more closely. We treat and seal what is on your stand and along your boundary regardless of what is happening next door, and we will tell you plainly which entry points are the ones worth raising with a neighbour. It is common on these small stands for the real fix to need both sides eventually, and we would rather say that upfront than let you think one treatment ends it.
Yes. On a compact Protea Glen stand there is usually far less distance between the boundary wall and where children or animals actually play, so placement matters more, not less. We use registered products at the registered rate, placed into cavities, gaps and covered bait stations rather than open ground, and we will show you exactly where we've placed things and which areas to keep clear.
We work out of Randburg and cover Protea Glen as part of our regular run. Our line is open 24 hours Monday to Friday, so you can call in whenever you actually spot the droppings or hear the movement along the wall, rather than waiting for a weekday morning.
