Why do mosquitoes and flies keep returning to our duplex in Aljumum, even after a spray? Most owners here ask this because the problem seems to come back within days. The answer is that a single treatment rarely removes the breeding sites around the building. Aljumum's centre sits about 200 m above sea level, so the area is not low-lying ground where standing water collects in the same way, but warm weather, irrigation, and small pools of water in courtyards, drains, and water tanks still give insects what they need to multiply. A visit that treats only the adults without checking these sources will leave the cycle intact.
A proper inspection of a duplex starts outside and works inward. The technician checks the shaded corners of each unit, the drainage points, the rooftop water tanks and their covers, the garden areas and any containers that hold water, and the gaps around windows, doors, and pipes where flies enter. Both units of the duplex are checked, because a problem next door often reaches a shared wall or drain. The findings are recorded so the owner can see exactly which sources were found and what was done about each one. Where a treatment is applied, the technician explains where it went and why, and notes any areas that need the owner to act.
Before the visit, it helps to clear the courtyard and balcony of loose containers, empty any buckets or planters that hold water, and make sure the technician can reach the water tank and the drains. Note when the problem is worst, such as evenings or after irrigation, and describe where you have seen insects, since this narrows the search. If there are birds nesting on the roof or in the eaves, mention that too, as nesting sites can attract flies. Keeping these areas tidy between visits makes any treatment last longer and lets you see early when the problem is starting to return.
In a duplex, the two floors often share lines, so tests are done floor by floor.
