For a company taking on bird control in Makkah under an annual contract, the first thing a technician checks is the height and exposure of the site. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), so the surveyor notes how the building's roofline, parapets and ledges sit within the local terrain and what open ground or courtyards surround it. This matters because the same nesting ledge can be reached by different birds depending on the open ground nearby, so the first pass is about access points and perching surfaces rather than a generic price. Pricing for bird control here is typically set per metre of treated length, in the range of SAR 30–85 per m, so measuring the affected run of ledge, cornice or netting line is one of the first tasks.
Some matters are left for the site visit itself, because they cannot be judged from a description. The technician will walk the roof, balconies and light fittings to see where droppings, nests and roosting are concentrated, and will confirm whether the building needs netting, spikes, wire or a combination. The annual contract is usually billed at SAR 525–1,575 per month, and the level within that band depends on what the survey finds. Follow-up work is priced separately at SAR 105–265 per visit, and the technician will agree the schedule on site rather than assume it. Where pest issues overlap, such as rodent control at SAR 210–525 per visit, or a standard pest-control visit at SAR 160–420 per visit, these are noted in the survey and quoted as distinct line items.
To help the technician arrive prepared, the company should share the building's floor plan or a rough sketch with measured lengths of affected ledges, the number of floors, and whether the roof is accessible. Tell the team which areas are used by staff, customers or residents, since this shapes the timing of work. Note any previous treatments, the dates of past bird problems and the kinds of birds seen, because these details help select the right method. Finally, confirm who will give access to roofs and private balconies and at what times, so the visit can proceed without delay.
For companies, an annual contract sets the scope, the visit schedule and the reports in writing.
