Cockroach control in Al Qshashya Al Jdyd: the local context

The centre of Al Qshashya Al Jdyd is at 21.2290, 39.8669, about 17.8 km from the centre of Makkah, with an approximate radius of 1.2 km. The approximate area shown on the map is centred here. The centre of Al Qshashya Al Jdyd sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).

Picture a homeowner in a mid-sized apartment or villa who has just spotted a cockroach in the kitchen after dark. Like many households in the district, they want the problem gone without a long disruption to their daily routine, and they are not sure whether a single visit will be enough or whether they need a regular plan. Most owners in this situation are looking for a clear sense of what the work involves and what it is likely to cost before they commit.

Al Qshashya Al Jdyd sits at roughly 21.2290 N, 39.8669 E, about 17.8 km from the centre of Makkah, with an approximate radius of 1.2 km. It lies at around 301 m above sea level. For a homeowner, the distance from the city centre means the area has its own local conditions rather than simply mirroring the city, so it makes sense to plan treatment around the building itself, not a generic template. The modest elevation and the defined radius also mean that neighbouring properties are close enough to share pest movement, so treating one unit in isolation may leave cockroaches to return from adjacent kitchens, drains and stores.

A practical approach starts with a site visit, where the technician checks kitchen cabinets, drains, waste areas and any gaps around pipes. Next, treatment is applied to the harbourage points rather than only to visible insects, followed by a scheduled follow-up visit to confirm the activity has dropped. If the property also shows signs of rodents or birds, those issues are handled separately, with rodent control at SAR 210–525 per visit and bird control at SAR 30–85 per m. Owners who want ongoing protection can compare a monthly annual pest-control contract at SAR 525–1,575 per month. Finally, keep food sealed, clear waste promptly and report any new sightings quickly so that the next visit can focus on the real hotspots.

Each job ends with a written report that carries a verification code you can check on our site.
