Rat Education and how they breed.

Hillcrest Kwikspar

Setting the example is to put Hygiene and quality number one on your list.
At Hillcrest Spar, we try and set the example so please show this video to your community in the area of Crawford because we have no control over the hygiene of other Spar's in other areas after seeing the video it looks rather messy and out of our control.

Let the Kromboom Spar make a video of there business to win back the confidence and try and get rid of the infestations that are bothering the consumers.

They are giving our brand a bad name.

Let them invest in better hygiene because that is what our brand is all about.

Your Sincerely

The Spar Team

Boeta Ameen Story

The Story of Brother Ameen of the same neighborhood.


Dead Rats found in Sunnyside road in parking area close to power station.

Good Morning/Salaam

My name is Ameen I am from the area and well known to the public, and ever since Spar moved here It was just ugly and stinky just taking a stroll to the chemist was a smelly effort.

I need my excercise, on the 15 January 2019 I remember well on a Teusday morning at about 11:30 am, I walked pass the rear end of the Spar Sunnyside road opposite the pharmacy and I saw two dead RATS in the road smelling at the rear gate of the Spar most probably ran over or killed by a delivery vehicle or a passing vehicle

The Smell is unbearable during the day, we have a pharmacy opposite the same road making it even more difficult for customers to get into the entrance because trucks are forever blocking the way.

That whole food complex is just filthy in the backyard.

Why don't they throw their dead rats in their own bins instead of the street, where other, vehicles drive and people walk. Rats even on the grass of another parking lot on the side of the pharmacy right behind other peoples property, this is not right. It is unethical.

I AM JUST WARNING BUSINESS IN THAT COMPLEX NOT TO PROTECT SPAR IN ANYWAY WHATSOEVER, YOUR PEOPLE JOB IS TO KEEP YOUR OWN BUSINESS CLEAN. SO YOU BETTER ALL JUST SHUT UP AND STAY THE HELL OUT OF THIS STORY, BECAUSE THEN YOU WILL BE INVOLVED IN THIS MESS.

CONSUMERS MUST GET THE BEST QUALITY NOT CRAP OR JUNK.
YOU CAN BUY CHEAP BUT LET IT BE QUALITY.



I was in the bakery before the new owners, it is right next to the bins and the public may go investigate themselves the condition of that stinking backyard.

Truck drivers are hazardous to the area as many large and expensive vehicles find it difficult driving in Sunnyside road, that part of the road is not designed for the parking of trucks or even any form of delivery vans.
These drivers do not take any responsibilty for damaging your expensive vehicle they lie just as the SPAR owners.

I do not expect the public to take my word, go and do your own investigation at the Spar and the Backyard, they look all clean from the inside but checkout their kitchen and have a good eye for cockroaches, you never get rid of that insect no matter how hard companies try.

A very good friend of mine who had passed away bought a block of flats in paarl infested with cockroaches for more then 45 years did you hear, 45 years the previous owners tried their best to get rid of the cockroach epidemic until the building burnt down many will know in paarl about Kats flats with all those cokroaches.

Cockroaches and mice live from waisted food from restaurants and bakery scraps this is how they breed.
If those companies do not have the best hygiene and scientific methods to control it, you the consumer will end up eating these insects and rats/mice in your fast food and even baked pies.

THE SPAR IS WELL AWARE OF THE TRUTH ABOUT THE STORY THAT IS HITTING THE INTERNET THEY ARE QUIET AND ARE TRYING THEIR BEST TO CLEAN UP.

OTHER BUSINESS IN THE SAME COMPLEX ARE MARKETTING BIG TIME SOTHAT THE STORY CAN DIE OUT.

BUT I AM ALIVE AND STILL TICKING AND WILL KEEP THE TRUTH ALIVE.

TO THE PUBLIC GO TO THEIR BACKYARD FOR A TOUR AND HAVE ALOOK AT WHERE THEIR BAKERY IS SITUATED..

FIRSTLY THE SPAR MUST STOP LYING TO THE PEOPLE AND STAYING SILENT ABOUT THEIR INFESTED PEICE OF SPACE THEY ARE RENTING.

RATHER GET THE HELL OUT OF THE AREA AND FIND SHOP SOMEWHERE ELSE.

WARNING! RATS AND COCKROACH INFESTATIONS AT KROMBOOM ROAD KWIKSPAR UNHYGIENIC

To all members of the public who shops at Kwikspar Kromboom Road should refrain from shopping there as new evidence has arised that their cockroach and rat infestation is now uncontrollable.

Three weeks ago Mrs Samuels from heideveld purchased a large pie with a mouse in it.

On Wednesday 2 weeks one of the workers who cleaned one of the isles scooped a rat and took it to the back most probably where the bins were, one of the co-workers quickly covered it with a mop so-that this awful scene could be out of the public eye as the shop was extremely busy on a Saturday morning.

Another incident that I have observed was when an elderly person most probably suffering from dementia who walked with his trolley to go to the atm next door to Tashreeqas was ill-treated by a security guard for walking out allegedly for not paying, the security guard who followed him gave him a few smacks and he fell to the ground, after observing all this the goods were all paid at the counter by a family member who ran out of his vehicle.

On 17 Sunday 2019
I went to the bakery counter at KWIKSPAR to order a dozen of rolls and to my demise, I saw cockroaches walking over the rolls, I could not handle the sight of what I saw and just walked out and promised myself never to purchase at KWIKSPAR ever again.

Nadeema Davids.

Biodynamic Gardening Guide: Definition, Key Principles, Best Practices, Benefits, Tools and Preparations

Biodynamic gardening offers a profound approach to cultivating the earth, resonating with ancient wisdom and modern ecological consciousness. It transcends conventional organic practices by fostering a holistic understanding of the garden as a living organism, intertwined with the rhythms of nature and the cosmos. Embracing this philosophy nurtures vibrant, nutrient-rich produce while promoting a deeper connection to the natural world.

Key Principles of Biodynamic Gardening

1. Understanding the Farm as a Living Organism:

  • Biodynamics views the farm or garden as an interconnected entity, where soil, plants, animals, and cosmic forces collaborate in a delicate dance of life.
  • Nurturing this interconnectedness is paramount, ensuring a synergistic balance that promotes vitality and resilience.

2. Strengthening the Soil:

  • Biodynamic preparations, meticulously crafted from natural substances, act as catalysts for soil health.
  • These preparations invigorate microbial life, enhance fertility, and promote a thriving soil ecosystem—the foundation for robust plant growth.

3. Aligning with Cosmic Rhythms:

  • Biodynamics recognizes the profound influence of celestial rhythms on plant growth.
  • Planting, cultivating, and harvesting in harmony with lunar cycles, planetary alignments, and seasonal transitions optimizes plant vitality and yields.

4. Embracing Biodiversity:

  • Biodynamic gardens embrace diversity, fostering a tapestry of plant species, insect life, and beneficial organisms.
  • This biodiversity fosters resilience, thwarts pests, and creates a harmonious ecosystem where each element contributes to the garden's overall health.

Essential Practices for Biodynamic Gardening Success

1. Composting: The Heart of Soil Fertility

  • Biodynamic composting is a meticulous art, transforming organic matter into a nutrient-rich elixir for the soil.
  • Specific preparations, such as BD500 and BD502, enhance compost vitality, accelerating decomposition and enriching the soil's microbial life.

2. Planting by the Moon and Stars:

  • Biodynamic planting calendars guide gardeners to align sowing and harvesting with auspicious cosmic rhythms.
  • This practice is believed to optimize plant growth, nutrient uptake, and flavor development.

3. Fostering Biodiversity:

  • Intercropping, companion planting, and cultivating a diversity of species create a vibrant ecosystem that benefits all inhabitants.
  • Beneficial insects thrive, pests are kept in check, and the garden becomes a resilient, self-sustaining microcosm.

4. Honoring Animals and Their Role:

  • Biodynamic farms often integrate livestock, recognizing their crucial role in nutrient cycling, soil fertility, and overall farm health.
  • Animals contribute manure for compost, grazing for weed control, and their unique energy to the farm's ecosystem.

The Rewards of Biodynamic Gardening

1. Nutrient-Rich, Flavorful Produce:

  • Biodynamic practices yield produce that is not only free of chemicals but also brimming with vitality and flavor.
  • The heightened nutrient density and vibrant energy of biodynamically grown food are often palpable to those who consume it.

2. Deeper Connection to Nature:

  • Biodynamic gardening cultivates a profound sense of connection to the natural world, fostering respect for the delicate balance of life forces that sustain us.
  • This intimate relationship with nature enriches both the gardener and the garden, fostering a sense of stewardship and gratitude.

3. A Path to Regeneration:

  • Biodynamic principles offer a roadmap for healing the Earth and restoring vitality to our food systems.
  • By nourishing the soil, honoring biodiversity, and embracing cosmic rhythms, we can participate in a movement that nurtures life and promotes a thriving planet for generations to come.

Delving Deeper into the Cosmos: Advanced Biodynamic Techniques

We've established the core principles and practices of biodynamic gardening, but the journey doesn't end there. For those seeking to truly connect with the cosmic rhythms and unlock the full potential of their gardens, several advanced techniques await exploration.

Honing Your Sensitivity to Cosmic Forces

1. Observing the Subtle: Planetary Influences

Each planet in our solar system exerts a unique influence on plant growth. For example:

  • Mars: Associated with vitality and action, Mars days are ideal for seeding fast-growing plants like lettuce and radishes.
  • Venus: Ruling over love and beauty, Venus days favor planting flowering ornamentals and nurturing delicate fruits.
  • Saturn: Known for structure and boundaries, Saturn days are well-suited for tasks like transplanting seedlings and pruning woody plants.

By keeping a keen eye on planetary movements and aligning your gardening activities accordingly, you can tap into these subtle cosmic forces and potentially enhance your yields and harvest quality.

2. Harnessing the Moon's Cycles: The Biodynamic Sowing Calendar

The moon's waxing and waning phases have long been recognized as potent influences on plant growth. Biodynamic sowing calendars, meticulously crafted to correspond with these lunar cycles, offer detailed guidance for optimal planting times.

  • Root Days: During the waning moon, focus on planting root vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and beets. The downward pull of the moon's gravity is believed to encourage vigorous root development.
  • Leaf Days: Under the waxing moon, prioritize leafy greens like lettuce, spinach, and kale. The moon's upward pull is thought to stimulate lush foliage growth.
  • Flower Days: The days surrounding the full moon are auspicious for sowing flowering plants, fruit trees, and herbs. The moon's heightened energy is believed to promote vibrant blooms and bountiful harvests.

3. Rhythms of the Zodiac: A Deeper Dive

For the truly dedicated biodynamic gardener, delving into the specific influences of the zodiacal constellations can add another layer of complexity and potential benefit. Each constellation is associated with different plant parts and qualities, offering further guidance for aligning your gardening activities with cosmic rhythms.

For instance, planting tomatoes under the sign of Leo (associated with fire and fruit) or sowing leafy greens under Libra (linked to air and balance) might be seen as particularly auspicious choices. However, mastering this level of astrological integration requires dedication and ongoing study.

Tools and Preparations for the Advanced Biodynamic Gardener

1. The Seven Preparations: Catalysts for Life

Biodynamic preparations are potent natural concoctions crafted from specific plant and animal materials. These preparations, numbered BD500 through BD507, each address different aspects of soil health and plant vitality.

  • BD500 (Horn manure): Enhances soil fertility and humus formation.
  • BD501 (Horn silica): Strengthens plant stems and resistance to disease.
  • BD502 (Cow manure): Stimulates composting and microbial activity.
  • BD503 (Chamomile): Promotes flower formation and fruit quality.
  • BD504 (Nettle): Enhances leaf growth and chlorophyll production.
  • BD505 (Oak bark): Strengthens root systems and resistance to pests.
  • BD506 (Dandelion): Balances soil moisture and nutrient uptake.

Mastering the application and timing of these preparations takes time and experience, but their potential to invigorate your garden and elevate your biodynamic practice is significant.

2. The Dowsing Rod: Intuition Meets Practicality

The dowsing rod, a simple Y-shaped tool, can be used to intuitively locate underground water sources, ley lines (energetic lines in the Earth), and even compost piles with optimal activity. While its scientific validity is debated, many biodynamic gardeners swear by the dowsing rod as a valuable tool for connecting with the subtle energies of the land.

Conclusion: A Lifelong Journey with Biodynamic Gardening

Biodynamic gardening is not merely a set of techniques; it's a lifelong journey of observation, experimentation, and deepening connection with the natural world. As you delve deeper into its principles and practices, you'll witness firsthand the vibrant life force coursing through your garden, responding to your care and resonating with the rhythms of the cosmos.
