Before we start: what we know about Wadi Aldawasir

The centre of Wadi Aldawasir sits about 683 m above sea level (SRTM open elevation data).

Do pigeons and other birds keep coming back to your roof, balcony or courtyard after you have cleared them? In Wadi Aldawasir, a town whose centre sits about 683 m above sea level, many property owners find that a one-time clean-up is not enough, because birds return to the same ledges and openings each season. A preventive periodic check is designed for exactly this problem. Bird control here is priced at SAR 30–80 per m, and a follow-up visit costs SAR 100–250 per visit, so the cost of a regular check can be planned in advance rather than paid as an emergency bill.

The inspection follows a set order. The technician first walks the property to identify where birds roost, nest or droppings collect, such as parapets, air-conditioning units, water tanks and gaps under eaves. Measurements are taken so the work can be quoted per metre, which is how bird control is charged. Sealing points, deterrents and any cleaning needed are then recommended, and the visit ends with a summary of what was found and what should be checked at the next follow-up. Where other pests are noticed during the walk-through, they are noted separately, since a pest-control visit costs SAR 150–400 per visit and rodent control costs SAR 200–500 per visit, and these are quoted only if you ask for them.

Before the visit, clear access to the roof, balcony and any shaft or service area so the technician can reach every edge. Note where you have seen birds or droppings and when the problem is worst, as this helps focus the inspection. If you are considering a longer arrangement, an annual pest-control contract is listed at SAR 500–1,500 per month, and it can be a sensible way to keep preventive checks on a regular schedule. Keep any previous service reports or photos to hand, so the technician can see what has already been tried and avoid repeating it.

Preventive checks follow a written schedule instead of waiting for a fault.
