What drives pest pressure in La Lucia
La Lucia sits as a core affluent anchor in the Umhlanga belt with mature trees, generous gardens, and mixed freestanding and sectional stock — KZN humidity keeps ant colonies active along irrigation and paving; roof rats bridge from canopies before voids; cockroaches track compact kitchens and drains; mosquitoes lift near pools after storms; termite conversations stay evidence-led on timber and decks. Honest scope names body corporate rules, boundary depth, and coastal moisture together.
