Before a technician even opens the door, it helps to know where Al Slama sits. The centre of Al Slama is at 21.5940, 39.1524, about 6 km from the centre of Jeddah, with an approximate radius of 2.5 km. The centre of Al Slama sits about 7 m above sea level, and Al Slama is about 4.7 km from the sea coast. Because the district is close to the coast but not on it, the team will look at how humidity, ventilation and older building layouts may let pests move between apartments. Bed bugs do not depend on geography in the way some outdoor pests do, so the first checks focus on the flat itself: bed frames, mattress seams, skirting boards, sofa joints and the spaces behind headboards.

Several things can only be judged on site. The technician will decide how far the infestation has spread, whether neighbouring units need to be included, and which treatment method suits the furniture and the room layout. They will also confirm whether any other pest problem is present, such as rodents or termites, since these need separate work. Pricing for a visit falls within a range that depends on the size of the flat and the work needed, and the final quote is given after inspection. Follow-up visits are normally planned once the first treatment has been applied, and the technician will explain the schedule at the visit rather than in advance.

To help the technician, prepare the flat before they arrive. Note where you have seen bites, stains or insects, and when you first noticed them. Remove loose bedding and clothing from the floor, and tell the team if there are pets, young children or anyone with a medical condition who will be in the rooms during treatment. Keep access clear to wardrobes, beds and any storage areas, and let the technician know about any recent moves, used furniture or guests who have stayed over. Clear information at this stage makes the inspection faster and the treatment plan more accurate for the apartment.

In an apartment, a problem may start in your unit or in a shared line; we separate the two before any work.
