Bird control in Madinah: the local context
Team note on Madinah: 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 Madinah sits about 589 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).
Imagine an apartment owner in a multi-storey building who notices pigeons settling on the balconies, droppings collecting on window ledges, and nesting material wedged into the air-conditioning units. Tenants start raising complaints about the mess and the noise at dawn, and the owner wants the problem solved without a rushed, poorly planned job. For a building like this, the first question is usually not which product to use but where the birds are getting in and what they are attracted to.
The local facts shape that planning. The centre of Madinah sits about 589 m above sea level, so the city's built environment is a mix of dense low-rise blocks and open ground that gives birds plenty of places to perch and roost. Bird control is priced at SAR 30–80 per m, which means the length of ledge, railing or roofline that needs protection is the main driver of cost. Owners who measure these edges carefully before requesting quotes can compare offers on a like-for-like basis rather than guessing at a total.
Start by walking the building and recording every surface birds use: balcony rails, parapets, window sills, ventilation grilles and the roof edge. Measure each length in metres so the scope is clear. Next, block the easiest entry points and remove nesting material, taking care not to disturb active nests, since this is where many owners make mistakes. Then arrange a site visit with a pest-control provider, where a visit typically costs SAR 150–400, and ask for a written scope. If the problem returns, a follow-up visit at SAR 100–250 is often sufficient, while a yearly plan at SAR 500–1,500 per month suits buildings that need ongoing monitoring. Where rodents or termites are also present, treat those separately, since rodent control is SAR 200–500 per visit and termite treatment is SAR 10–25 per m². Finish by checking the work after a few weeks and keeping a simple log for tenants and the owner.
In apartment buildings, the floor below is often where a leak shows first.

Common questions about bird control in Madinah
What is the difference between standard spraying and integrated pest management?
Standard spraying treats visible symptoms only, while integrated pest management includes diagnosis, sealing entry points, and multiple methods for longer-lasting results.
Could the leak be caused by weak waterproofing rather than the pipes?
Yes, damage to the waterproofing layer beneath the bathroom floor is one of the most common causes of leaks, especially in older buildings. In this case, water seeps through the tile joints into the screed and then down to the ceiling below. A specialized inspection can distinguish this from a pipe leak.
What is the difference between drain unblocking and drain cleaning?
Unblocking removes an existing blockage that prevents drainage, while cleaning is a preventive procedure that removes deposits and grease from pipes before they cause a blockage.
