Does an annual pest management contract make sense for an apartment building in Dhahran? For most property owners, the question is whether a fixed yearly arrangement costs less and works better than paying for one-off visits each time a problem appears. The answer depends on how many units you manage, how often pests return, and how quickly you need problems dealt with. Our annual pest-control contract for apartments is priced at SAR 500–1,500 per month, and each pest-control visit on its own is SAR 150–400, with follow-up visits at SAR 100–250. Rodent control is SAR 200–500 per visit, and termite treatment is SAR 10–25 per m². Bird control is priced at SAR 30–80 per m. Because Dhahran sits about 16 m above sea level and about 5.9 km from the sea coast, the local conditions and pest activity can vary from one block to another, so a contract gives you a plan that suits the specific building.

The inspection starts with a walk through the common areas, rooftop, bin store and any gaps where pests could enter, then moves to a sample of apartments chosen with the property owner. The technician records signs of activity, such as droppings, nesting material or damage, and notes where treatments are needed. For termites, the inspection measures the affected areas so the treatment can be priced per square metre at SAR 10–25 per m². For birds, the nesting and roosting sites are measured, since bird control is charged at SAR 30–80 per m. The findings are reviewed with the owner before any treatment begins, and the agreed visits are then scheduled across the contract year, with follow-up visits added where the first treatment needs checking.

To make the visit run smoothly, prepare a list of the units and common areas to be inspected, along with the building layout or plans if you have them. Arrange access to each apartment in advance, and ask tenants to clear cupboards, under-sink areas and balconies so the technician can reach likely hiding places. Note any previous treatments, the dates they were carried out and any recurring complaints from residents. Keep the bin store and waste areas accessible, and confirm who will be on site to receive the report. With these details ready, the first visit can focus on solving the problem rather than gathering basic information.
