Shab Aly Al Jdyd sits at about 21.2552 north and 39.7310 east, roughly 19.9 km from the centre of Makkah, with an approximate radius of 1.2 km. The district lies at about 174 metres above sea level, and its nearest wadi channel runs about 0.5 km from the centre. Before a technician plans any treatment for cockroaches, these facts shape the first checks. Proximity to a wadi channel matters because low, watercourse-adjacent ground can hold moisture and debris that give cockroaches shelter and food, so the first inspection looks at drainage lines, damp corners, and the state of stored waste close to the property.

What is left to the site visit is the detail that no map can give. The technician will walk the building, check kitchens, bathrooms, ducts, and the spaces under sinks and behind appliances, and look for droppings, egg cases, and signs of entry such as gaps around pipes and door thresholds. The visit also confirms how far infestation has spread between units and whether the problem is in a single room or throughout the property. Pricing is set by the work found on the day, and the site visit is where that scope is measured and agreed, with rates such as the per-visit pest-control fee and the follow-up visit fee shown to the client before any work begins.

To help the technician, residents and expats can prepare a few simple things. Note when the problem was first seen, which rooms are affected, and whether there has been any recent flooding, leak, or heavy rain nearby, since those details link to the local wadi and drainage conditions. Keep food sealed and clear of the areas being inspected, and let the technician know whether there are pets, young children, or stored goods that need to be moved. Clear access to kitchens, storerooms, and outdoor bin areas will let the visit cover the full property in one go.

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