Before we start: what we know about Makkah

Rodents are the most common problem we are asked to deal with in annual pest management contracts for homes and small commercial premises in Makkah. Rats and mice find their way into stores, kitchens and loft spaces, and once they are established, a single visit rarely solves the problem. A preventive contract is built around regular inspection, sealing of entry points and monitoring, so that activity is caught early rather than discovered after damage has been done. Rodent control is typically priced at SAR 210–525 per visit, which is why it is worth agreeing on a schedule in advance rather than calling out an engineer each time a sign appears.
Local conditions shape the plan. The centre of Makkah sits about 301 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data), and the programme we set for a property reflects the surroundings and the season in which pests are most active. Termite treatment is charged at SAR 10–25 per m², so we assess timber, foundations and stored materials during the first survey and recommend treatment only where the evidence supports it. Bird control, at SAR 30–85 per m, is handled separately because nesting on rooftops and ledges needs its own exclusion work rather than a general spray. Where a property has several of these needs, we map them into one annual plan so the costs are predictable from month to month.
Before the first visit, ask for a written scope that lists every service included in the annual contract, the monthly fee of SAR 525–1,575, and the price of each follow-up visit, which is SAR 105–265. Ask how many pest-control visits are included and what they cost beyond that, which falls between SAR 160 and 420 per visit. Confirm whether the inspection report will be left with you after each visit, what chemicals will be used indoors and how long residents should stay away from treated areas, and who to contact between scheduled visits. A clear answer to these questions tells you whether the contract will protect your property throughout the year.
Preventive checks follow a written schedule instead of waiting for a fault.
