Annual contracts in Jabal Al Noor Makkah

Jabal Al Noor sits north east of the Grand Mosque on King Faisal Road and Souq Al Arab, a mountain that draws a steady stream of visitors year-round to the Hira cave. Apartment blocks and shops wrap its base, and Souq Al Arab is known for its traditional markets and street food. Annual foot traffic is high and constant. An annual contract here monitors shared zones, repeated entry points and the mountain environment.

Why they keep coming back in Jabal Al Noor

Repeated visitor traffic and high daily foot movement create very favourable conditions for insects, and traditional shops and street food outlets provide continuous food sources. The method is set out in full on what Annual contracts involves.

The first reason

Constant visitors and high daily foot traffic

Visitors reach the mountain and cave year-round. Monitoring points near entry areas and mountain bases are heavily pressured. Insects and rodents profit from waste left by visitors and goods carried up. Monitoring must cover the popular zones where visitors move and gather.

The second reason

Traditional markets and street food vendors

Souq Al Arab is known for traditional shops and street-food restaurants. Gaps between and behind shops shelter insects. Drain water from food vendors runs through streets and narrow gaps loaded with grease.

The third reason

The mountain itself and natural caves and gaps

The mountain holds caves and natural gaps where rodents, bats and insects nest. Mountain fissures may serve as source populations for insects moving down into the blocks below.

Jabal Al Noor sits about 3.5 km from Al Maabdah and about 3.5 km from Rai Adhakhir.

Before treatment

What sets the shape of the contract

The district spreads from the base of Jabal Al Noor toward Wadi Jaleel and Al Adl, with residential buildings and popular markets on King Faisal Road and around Souq Al Arab, and visitors climbing the mountain daily.

The goods-in door

The goods-in door to shops and food vendors at the mountain base sees very heavy visitor traffic and goods movement, and small old doors may have large gaps around frames.

Commercial waste containers beside a building

The waste area

The waste area in shops and street food vendors collects waste from visitors and merchants, and may sit in basement locations or tight corners.

Drains and grease traps

Drains and grease traps from street food restaurants provide pathways for insects and rodents to reach upper floors.

Dry store and pallets

Dry store and materials in flats close to the mountain may suffer from moisture from mountain fissures and from proximity to high traffic areas.

Fixed, numbered points

Fixed points are sited on entry paths from the mountain and market and into the apartment buildings, especially in shared hallways and stairwells.

The file itself

The file records visitor flow and notes waste patterns and gaps and the seasonal effect on insect and rodent populations.

How we work

1
Survey and risk assessment

We walk the building from the goods-in door through preparation, stores and washrooms, and record the species pressure, the entry routes, the moisture and which areas carry which level of risk.
2
The plan, the map and the frequency

We number the monitoring positions on a plan of the site, agree the visit frequency from what each area handles and how open the building is, and agree who receives and signs the report.
3
The scheduled visits

Every visit reads the same route, point by point, records the reading even when it is nil, and treats the area the reading calls for rather than the whole building.
4
Review and reading the trend

We read the visits together rather than one at a time: where the readings climbed, which corrective actions are still open, and whether an area needs more points or closer visits.

What the annual contract includes

Opening survey and site plan

A walk that fixes the risk areas and the entry routes, and a plan with the monitoring positions numbered before anything is installed.
Numbered monitoring points

Fixed positions on a set route, opened, read and logged every visit, and replaced when damaged.
Targeted treatment when called for

On the cracks, junctions and service areas the reading points to, and outside operating hours where that is needed.
Drains and waste areas

Floor gullies, grease traps and the ground around the containers on every visit, because that is the source that renews itself.
Report and corrective actions

After every visit: what was found, what was applied and where, and what the site needs to fix, such as a door gap or a missing drain cover.
Scheduled visits and visits in between

A schedule agreed in the contract, plus a visit when activity appears between two dates, logged like any other.

What is different about Al Maabdah Sub-Municipality

Al Maabdah sub municipality climbs from Al Abtah and Al Jumayzah beside the Al Mualla cemetery up through Al Khansa and Rai Adhakhir to Al Adl, Jabal Al Nour, Wadi Jaleel and Qurtubah on the outer ring roads. It mixes hotels and pilgrim housing near the Grand Mosque with old popular houses on hillside passes, new housing schemes on valley floors that carry flash floods after rain, and industrial plots, workshops and warehouses along Al Hajj Street in Qurtubah. Street widening and expropriation leave partly demolished frontages in Al Khansa.

Questions about this district

Do repeated visitors bring new insects to the area continuously?

Yes, visitors may carry insects and eggs in clothing and bags. Waste they leave provides steady food. The contract focuses on high traffic popular areas.

How do we treat gaps and caves in the mountain itself?

The mountain and cave are natural features. We focus on stopping insects from descending into residential blocks below, not on treating the mountain.

Do small restaurants and shops in Souq Al Arab need separate treatment?

They may need special attention because they close at night and may be sources. Points are sited to track movement from the market toward apartment blocks.

What if rodents shelter in the mountain and natural fissures?

Mountain rodents may move down seeking food. The contract targets prevention at foundations and gaps, not hunting them in the mountain.

Do traditional and modern shops in the market hold the same cleanliness standards?

Traditional markets may be less hygienic. Gaps and cracks may be numerous and larger in older shops.

What does the file cover for high traffic visitor areas?

The file records observations on visitor flow and waste and insect movement. We note peak traffic times and seasons and their effect on activity.

How much does annual contracts in Jabal Al Noor cost?

It is set after the inspection, because the price follows the type of infestation, the size of the space, how far it has spread and the number of visits it needs. Send a photo and a description on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Jabal Al Noor.
