Does a duplex in Mkhymat Al Hjaj Al Afraqa Ghyr really need professional cockroach control, or can it be handled with household sprays? For most owners here, the answer depends on how many units share walls, ducts and drains. The area's centre sits at 21.4112, 39.8980, about 4.8 km from the centre of Makkah, with an approximate radius of 1.2 km, and it lies about 352 m above sea level. Shared building services in duplexes give cockroaches an easy route between units, so a treatment limited to one flat often fails within weeks. A pest-control visit on the basis of SAR 160–420 per visit covers the whole structure, not just the spots you can see.

An inspection usually starts with a walk through both units and the common areas, looking at kitchens, bathrooms, under sinks, behind appliances and around drain openings. The technician records where droppings, egg cases and activity are found, then checks gaps around pipes, cable entries and the edges of cabinets. Where the problem overlaps with other pests, the same visit can note rodent signs, with rodent control priced at SAR 210–525 per visit, and bird activity, which is quoted at SAR 30–85 per m. Treatment is then planned by zone, and a follow-up visit at SAR 105–265 per visit checks whether activity has dropped and treats any areas that were missed.

Before the visit, clear the cabinets under sinks, empty the pantry shelves that are close to walls and bag any food waste in sealed containers. Move furniture slightly away from walls so the technician can reach skirting boards, and make sure both units can be accessed on the same day. Note any past treatments, when you first saw activity and which rooms are affected, since this helps the technician pinpoint the source. If you rent out the second unit, let the tenant know the date in advance so both households can prepare together.

In a duplex, the two floors often share lines, so tests are done floor by floor.
