Ant control in Al Shamiyah Al Jadid Makkah
Al Shamiyah Al Jadid is Crown Prince scheme one on the Al Laith road, brand new villas and apartments on wide streets with vacant plots and active building work between the homes. Excavation and ongoing construction open soil layers and release dormant colonies. The new villas look sealed inside but their foundations sit on freshly disturbed ground, and ants climb directly from the soil.

Why they keep coming back in Al Shamiyah Al Jadid
Ants in Al Shamiyah Al Jadid emerge from freshly disturbed soil around new foundations, and ongoing digging and building releases dormant colonies at speed. The method is set out in full on our Ant control service.
Excavation releases dormant underground colonies
Building the new scheme opens soil layers to great depth. Colonies dormant for millennia wake suddenly and search for food, water and new shelter around your new home.
Vacant plots between homes are open nurseries
Vacant plots and ongoing building and open excavations provide ideal conditions for ants to grow and breed without obstruction. No natural barriers exist.
New foundations sit on freshly disturbed soil
Brand new villas and apartments may look sealed inside but their foundations sit on soil just disturbed by excavation. Gaps around the foundations are wider than in older homes.

Open in Google MapsThe species and the trail decide the bait
Crown Prince scheme one on the Al Laith road, the westernmost of the southern schemes out by the Fifth Ring Road and the Haram boundary marker. Brand new villas and apartment blocks on wide streets with vacant plots and open building sites between the homes.
The sweet feeders
Sweet feeders move directly from disturbed soil upward toward kitchens, and excavation opens new pathways from old underground colonies.
The grease and protein feeders
Grease feeders thrive around damp new foundations and external pipes from fresh digging.
The trail and its direction
The ant trail climbs directly from disturbed soil through gaps around new foundations and exterior pipes.
Moisture before food
Moisture from ongoing digging and damp vacant plots draws ants continuously toward your new home.
The nest outside the building
The nest outside sits in disturbed soil directly below and around the new foundations, and excavation may expose massive colonies.
Winged ants
Winged ants appear abundantly because ongoing building and dampness provide ideal breeding conditions.
How we work
-
1
Inspect and follow the trail
We follow the line from where you see it to where it enters, and establish the species, what it is feeding on and the moisture keeping the nest close.
-
2
Matched bait placed on the trail
We choose the matrix from the feeding preference and place it on the trail itself, leaving the trail intact so the workers carry it to the queen and the brood.
-
3
Treat the perimeter and close the ways in
An external treatment at the wall base and the openings, and we point out the cracks, pipe entries and any branch touching the building.
-
4
The follow-up visit
We come back once the bait has worked through the nest, check the trail is gone, and look for a satellite nest if a new line has appeared.
What ant control includes
-
Following the trail to its source
Species, entry point and the direction of the nest, established before anything is applied.
-
Bait matched to the colony
Sugar or protein according to what the workers are carrying, placed on the trail rather than near it.
-
An external perimeter treatment
A band at the wall base and the outside openings, with the indoor trail left unsprayed so it keeps carrying bait.
-
Moisture points and entries
Condensate lines, sink surrounds, weep holes and pipe entries, which are what keeps a nest against the building.
-
Aftercare instructions
What not to wipe until the bait has been taken, what to cover, and when normal cleaning can resume.
-
A scheduled follow-up
A set date to check the nest and re-bait anywhere still active.
The character of Al Shamiyah Al Jadid

Questions about this district
Are new homes in Al Shamiyah Al Jadid less vulnerable to ants than older homes?
Brand new villas may look sealed inside but their foundations sit on soil just disturbed by digging. Gaps around the foundations are wider, and ants climb directly from the soil.
Do excavations and new building work bring ants up from underground?
Yes, deep digging releases dormant colonies from below. Broken wet soil from the work creates a direct path into the new foundations.
Does treating my single home stop ants from the vacant plots next door?
Treating your home stops ants entering now, but vacant plots and ongoing building are a constant source. Outside perimeter treatment cuts the pathway from vacant plots.
Is regular repeat treatment more necessary here than elsewhere?
Yes, ongoing digging, building and vacant plots mean continuous reinvasion. Treatment every three months is necessary instead of six monthly.
Is the high water table the main cause of ants?
Groundwater may run high in parts of the new scheme. But the root cause is the digging and ongoing building and exposed vacant plots.
Must I treat both my home and the vacant plots around it together?
Yes, treating home and the outside perimeter together is essential. Vacant plots are a constant source, and treated perimeter cuts ant entry pathways.
How much does ant control in Al Shamiyah Al Jadid cost?
