What is specific about Jeddah for mosquito & fly control
Team note on Jeddah: Kashf teams serve this city and its nearby districts with the same documented inspection standard: device-based leak detection without demolition, a written report, and a clear scope before any work begins.. The centre of Jeddah sits about 15 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).
Jeddah is about 2 km from the sea coast (OpenStreetMap).
Jeddah's centre sits about 15 m above sea level, and the city lies roughly 2 km from the coast. For mosquito and fly control in residential buildings, that means our technicians start with the ground-level and low-lying spaces around the building before looking higher up. Standing water in drains, basement sumps, unused water tanks, and shaded corners near the entrance are checked first, because these are where breeding is most likely to begin. Fly activity around bins, refuse rooms, and food-preparation areas on the ground floor is the next thing to look at, since waste and moisture tend to draw the most flies.
Some points can only be settled on the site visit. The technician will walk the building to see how doors, windows, and vents let insects in, check whether screens are intact, and judge how far treatment should extend into shared stairwells or car parks. The number of visits and the scope of work depend on what is found, so the technician will confirm these on arrival rather than from a desk. Where the building has rooftop water storage, outdoor seating, or neighbouring plots with vegetation, the technician will note these and advise on how they affect the plan. Pricing for the visit itself is set at SAR 160–420 per visit, and any follow-up visit is quoted separately at SAR 105–265 per visit.
To help the technician prepare, residents and building managers should tell us in advance which areas they have noticed insects gathering, whether there have been recent leaks or standing water, and when the problem is worst during the day. Please also say whether the building has a basement, a rooftop tank, or a refuse area on site, and whether any other pest problems such as rodents or termites have been seen, since those may need separate treatment at SAR 210–525 per visit for rodents or SAR 10–25 per m² for termites. Clear access to the areas listed, and a named contact for the building, will let the visit run smoothly.
For a whole building, a survey of the shared systems comes before unit-by-unit work.

Questions from Jeddah
Can I use household chemicals instead of calling a technician?
Using unsuitable chemicals may corrode pipes and does not fix the root cause of the blockage, so it is better to rely on a specialist technician.
What is the difference between foam insulation and other types of insulation?
Foam insulation is easy to apply on uneven surfaces and forms one continuous layer with no joints, while other types, such as bitumen rolls, need the joints to be welded. The contractor decides which is most suitable after inspecting the site.
Can thermal insulation be applied to an existing building?
Yes, thermal insulation can be installed on the roofs and walls of existing buildings without the need for major structural modifications. The contractor prepares the surface, then applies the insulating material and the protective layer over it.
