Port Elizabeth (Gqeberha) - True Clean has launched an interactive ant-control guide on its website, giving homeowners a visual way to explore where ants may be coming from and what needs attention. The new page is the first in a planned collection of interactive pest guides, with more subjects to follow. At the centre of the page is an illustrated house and garden. Visitors can select the kitchen, plumbing, foundations, paving or garden to investigate possible entry routes, food and moisture sources, and nesting areas. Selecting the paving reveals a separate underground diagram explaining what may be happening below the surface. The guide addresses questions True Clean hears on local ant callouts: why ants appear indoors, why they keep returning, what surface spraying may miss, and how professional inspection helps determine an appropriate treatment. The explanations draw on the company's practical ant-control experience in Port Elizabeth. Visitors can choose the areas that interest them and open further explanations when needed. A compact navigation menu provides shortcuts to treatment information, prevention advice, prices and contact details. The page can be explored on phones, tablets and computers. An ant problem finder also lets visitors select where they are seeing activity and add clues about rain or previous spraying. It offers practical suggestions about what to check next, without presenting those answers as a species identification or a diagnosis. The illustrations show possible situations, rather than a map of any particular property. The guide explains, for example, that a trail at a skirting does not necessarily identify the nesting site, and that sinking paving needs assessment rather than an assumption that ants caused the whole problem. True Clean plans to extend the collection to other household pest problems, including cockroaches, rodents and bed bugs. The aim is to make common pest questions easier to understand through …

Psycho Bunny Brings Summer Polo Shirts and Swim Shorts to South Africa
South Africa: As October draws to a close, men across South Africa start swapping winter layers for lighter clothes. Jackets and jerseys get packed away, daylight stretches further into the evening, and diaries begin to fill with braais, golf days, end-of-year functions and early runs to the coast. It is a natural point to take stock of the warm-weather wardrobe and decide what should be replaced before the festive rush begins. Psycho Bunny South Africa, local home of the menswear label recognised by its embroidered skull and crossbones bunny, has a straightforward view of the season: the best summer wardrobe rests on a few hard-working pieces that look right in most of the places a man is likely to go. There is nothing complicated about that approach, and that is deliberate. Summer in South Africa is demanding on clothing. One day might begin with a breakfast meeting, carry on through a long lunch outdoors and finish at a family dinner, with heat, wind and perhaps a late afternoon thunderstorm along the way. The items worth keeping are the comfortable ones that are simple to look after and smart enough for nearly any setting. The polo comes first No summer garment earns its keep like the polo, and it is the anchor of the Psycho Bunny range. It occupies the space between a T-shirt and a collared shirt: easy enough for the weekend, yet the collar and placket give it enough polish for a relaxed office, a restaurant or an event where a plain tee would look underdressed. The brand's polo shirts cover classic pique styles in Pima cotton, sport polos and knit polos, all carrying the embroidered bunny on the chest. Pima cotton deserves a brief explanation, since it helps explain why these polos have loyal fans. As a long fibre cotton, it produces a fabric that is soft to the touch and keeps its shape through repeated wear. That is a real advantage in summer, when the same polo will likely go through the wash and back into rotation many times over a few …

IUDS: Benefits, Side Effects, And What to Expect
Affinity Health, a leading provider of high-quality health cover, says an intrauterine device (IUD) is one of the most effective forms of contraception, working for years with very little daily effort. An IUD, also known as an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) or the “loop”, is a small device, usually shaped like a T, placed inside the uterus. It can prevent pregnancy for several years but can be removed if a woman wants to stop using it or try to have a baby. IUDs are more than 99% effective. Unlike the pill, their effectiveness does not depend on remembering to take something every day. However, the best contraceptive choice depends on a woman’s health, periods, preferences, and plans for future pregnancy. What Is the Difference Between Hormonal and Copper? There are two main types of IUD: hormonal and copper. A hormonal IUD slowly releases a small amount of progestogen into the uterus. This thickens the mucus in the cervix, making it difficult for sperm to reach an egg. It also thins the lining of the uterus. A hormonal IUD could prevent pregnancy for approximately three to eight years, depending on the product used. It often makes periods lighter, shorter, and less painful. Some women eventually stop having periods while using it. This is generally not harmful and does not mean that blood is building up inside the body. A copper IUD contains no hormones. The copper affects sperm movement and function, preventing fertilisation. Depending on the device available, it may provide contraception for approximately five to 10 years. The copper IUD starts working immediately. It can also be used as emergency contraception when inserted within five days of unprotected sex. A doctor or nurse must first check that it is a safe and suitable option. Why Do Women Choose an IUD? Once an IUD is in place, there is no pill to remember, injection appointment to keep, or contraceptive to use every time a couple has sex. Other possible benefits include …

Cup of Tea Co Offers Stellenbosch-Blended Rooibos and Loose-Leaf Tea to Guesthouses, Offices and Cafés
Cup Of Tea Co offers Stellenbosch-blended rooibos and loose-leaf tea to guesthouses, offices and cafés The Stellenbosch blender lists 36 loose-leaf teas, from Classic Red Rooibos to honeybush and chai, with bulk supply, private label and custom blending. STELLENBOSCH, South Africa - On a guesthouse tea tray in the Winelands, a tired bag of black tea gets noticed. Cup Of Tea Co, which has blended loose-leaf tea in Stellenbosch Central since 2011, has published its range of loose-leaf teas (https://cupof.co.za/teas) with supply options for guesthouses, lodges, office kitchens and gift buyers as well as home drinkers. Rooibos at the centre Rooibos leads the range. Classic Red Rooibos is a smooth, naturally caffeine-free cup that stands a longer steep without turning harsh, and around it sit vanilla, citrus, spiced, mint, chai, lavender, apple-cinnamon and morning blends, plus green rooibos for a lighter, grassier taste. Honeybush Comfort is the mild, naturally sweet alternative. Herbal infusions include lemongrass, chamomile, peppermint, hibiscus berry and ginger zest. The black and green teas cover Earl Grey, Breakfast Black, a Ceylon-style black, pure green, jasmine green and a masala chai for stovetop brewing, and peach iced tea and citrus iced rooibos are made for summer. In all there are 36 teas. "Caffeine-free has stopped being the side order," said Cup Of Tea Co's head blender. "Lodges want a rooibos and a honeybush on every tray, because guests drink tea late in the afternoon and after supper. And in coastal towns we tell clients to keep packs sealed. Humidity takes the aroma out of tea quicker than people expect." Supply for venues and offices Guesthouses, lodges, cafés and boutique accommodation can set up ongoing hospitality supply in bulk packs, and offices can arrange recurring restocks for staff kitchens, reception and meeting rooms. The team helps small cafés build a focused tea menu, sets up tea bars for functions, packs wedding …

"We buy tomatoes and cucumbers from local farms and keep the batches small, so we can taste every one before it goes into jars," said Lindiwe Ndlovu, Cumato's production manager. "Produce changes through the season, so one batch can be a touch different from the last. That's what happens with real vegetables, and we're happy with it."

For events Cumato packs gift boxes, custom hampers, small-jar favours for weddings and showers, and corporate gifts for client thank-yous.

CYP450 Insights Publishes Plain-Language Enzyme Briefs for South African Pharmacists and Clinicians
CYP450 Insights publishes plain-language enzyme briefs for South African pharmacists and clinicians The Rondebosch science communication team offers CYP450 research briefs, training talks and literature reviews, written for education, not diagnosis. CAPE TOWN, South Africa - A patient on several chronic medicines asks why a new script came with a warning about something they already take. Pharmacists and clinicians field questions like that every day, and the honest answer often runs through the cytochrome P450 enzymes. CYP450 Insights, a science communication practice in Rondebosch, Cape Town, has published a library of CYP450 research briefs (https://cypcut.co.za/research-briefs) written to help professionals explain those answers clearly. What the briefs cover Individual briefs give overviews of the enzymes most often discussed in practice, including CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2B6, CYP2A6 and CYP2E1. Others deal with concepts: phase 1 metabolism, what enzyme induction and inhibition mean and why timing matters, prodrugs that have to be metabolised to become active, genotype and phenotype language, and what poor and rapid metaboliser status mean in general terms. A brief on age and metabolism explains why children are not simply small adults, and why older patients on several medicines call for more care in counselling. Education, with clear limits The practice is explicit about where its work stops. It prepares literature reviews, educational briefs, plain-language summaries and training talks drawn from established, widely accepted science. It does not test patients, diagnose, treat or give dosing advice, and every brief sends readers back to their own doctor or pharmacist for decisions about a specific medicine. "Most teams don't need more data, they need a shared way of talking about it," said Ayesha Daniels, the practice's lead science writer. "If the pharmacist and the nurse use the words inducer and inhibitor the same …

Deephole Supplies Gun-Drilling and Deep-Hole Boring Machines From Benoni to South African Workshops
Deephole supplies gun-drilling and deep-hole boring machines from Benoni to South African workshops The Benoni supplier offers CNC and manual gun drills, deep-hole borers, tooling and coolant systems, with installation, training and breakdown support. BENONI, South Africa - A standard drill that starts true at the surface can wander off line by the bottom of a long hole, and on a hydraulic manifold or a mould cooling channel that means scrap. Deephole, a Benoni supplier of gun-drilling and deep-hole boring equipment, has published its full range of gun-drilling machines (https://deephole.co.za/machines), tooling and support services for manufacturers and engineering shops across South Africa. The machine range Deephole supplies CNC gun drills for repeatable production work and manual machines for simpler jobs and workshop flexibility, in single-spindle and multi-spindle formats. Horizontal machines support long workpieces, vertical machines suit selected part shapes and tighter floor plans, and dedicated configurations cover tube sheet drilling, mould core drilling, shafts and long bars. Deep-hole borers and finish boring machines bring a hole to size, straightness and finish after drilling, and pilot hole machines prepare the entry for deeper work. Tooling and the support kit Gun drill tools are selected by hole diameter, depth, workpiece material and machine setup, with matching boring and burnishing tools, holders, bushings and guides. Supporting equipment includes tool presetters, coolant filtration units, high-pressure coolant systems, chip conveyors, steady rests, workholding fixtures, alignment kits and measuring tools. Rental gun drills and coolant units are available for shops that want to trial the process or cover a short contract. "In gun drilling the coolant is half the machine," said Deephole's applications engineer. "It carries the chips out and it supports the tool in the hole.

iCAUR V27 Takes Top Interior Design Honours at 2026 Torino Automotive Design Award
iCAUR V27 Takes top interior design honours at 2026 Torino Automotive Design Award The iCAUR V27 was named Best Interior Design in the Premium Car category at the 2026 Torino Automotive Design Award. Judges praised the cabin's blend of modern styling, everyday functionality, and intuitive technology. This win builds on the momentum of the V23, which earned a Red Dot Award for Design Concept earlier this year. The iCAUR V27 has scooped up the Best Interior Design Award in the Premium Car category at the 2026 Torino Automotive Design Award (TADA), marking another major win for the growing iCAUR V Series. Presented on 11 September in Turin, Italy, the award highlights how seamlessly the V27 pairs its rugged, boxy SUV roots with a refined, modern cabin. Hosted by Salone Auto Torino, TADA shines a spotlight on real innovation in vehicle design. Entries are judged on overall design execution, creativity, and how well the vehicle functions in the real world—making a win in Turin, long recognised as the global home to legendary automotive design houses, particularly meaningful. Inside, the V27 features iCAUR’s signature “Interstellar Cockpit” design language. While the exterior keeps the classic, bold proportions drivers expect from an off-roader, the cabin delivers a refreshingly uncluttered space focused on clear visibility, roominess, and effortless day-to-day usability. An elevated driving position and generous window layout give drivers a commanding view of the road, while soft-touch materials and a sensible, intuitive control layout ensure comfort on both short commutes and long road trips. “The V27 shows how iCAUR approaches design as something far deeper than just good looks,” says Shannon Gahagan, Head of Brand and Marketing at iCAUR and OMODA & JAECOO South Africa. “While it makes a strong visual statement on the outside, the interior has to genuinely work for people every single day. Practical details, visibility, space, and comfort …
