Mbombela notes on guarding & response
Gated estates around Sonheuwel and West Acres usually run a guardhouse with a roving patrol at night, and some add a dog handler for the perimeter. Citrus and macadamia packhouses hire seasonal guards at harvest, then drop back to a skeleton team. Lodges near the park gates sometimes want a discreet escort for guests arriving late.
