Bird and pigeon control in Al Fadl Jeddah

Al Fadl is a residential district in south Jeddah beside Al Adl and Prince Fawaz, with apartment blocks, single floor homes and vacant plots, newly built with parts still under construction. Open stormwater channels, nearby warehouses and markets supply the pigeons with water and food. The approach here differs from older completed quarters because building is ongoing and the environment is still forming.

Why they keep coming back in Al Fadl

Open drainage channels, warehouses, markets and active construction sites provide pigeons with water, food and shelter year round. The method is set out in full on what Bird and pigeon control involves.

The first reason

Open drainage channels give pigeons steady drinking water

Open stormwater channels loop through the district and water collects in them constantly because the network is not yet complete. Pigeons drink from this water and settle nearby. A roof deterrent alone cannot cut off the water and nearby shelter that draws them in.

The second reason

Warehouses and markets nearby feed them steadily

King Abdulaziz Medical City, Jeddah Technical College and nearby livestock and vegetable markets create a rich feeding ground. Animal waste and vegetable scraps provide constant pigeon food.

The third reason

Ongoing construction offers temporary shelters

Parts of the district are still building out, and projects offer incomplete roofs and steel frames that attract pigeons. Pigeons test these shelters before settling on a home or apartment near you.

Before treatment

The building decides which deterrent works

Roof ledges in new Al Fadl buildings are fairly smooth and the deterrent fits easily, but needs regular inspection.

Air conditioning platforms

Air conditioning units on new homes sit on flat platforms and provide pigeon landing points before nesting.

Nests on new rooftops are relatively simple and quick to remove if dealt with early.

The droppings pattern

Droppings from projects and markets reach rooftops easily because there is open exposure to wind.

Openings and shafts

Openings and shafts on new homes are limited, but neighbouring construction sites offer alternative entry points.

New roof tanks are usually sealed tight, but pooled water in the channels provides constant drinking access.

How we work

1
Survey the roof and the facade

We walk the roof, the projections, the condenser platforms and the shafts, separate the nesting positions from the perching ones, and measure and photograph every ledge.
2
Strip the nests and treat the parasites

Droppings are wetted before they are lifted so nothing goes airborne dry, bagged closed, and the nest position is treated for ticks and mites before the surface is sanitised.
3
Close and fit

Netting tensioned on a perimeter wire with no gap at the corners, spikes or wire on the narrow projections, metal mesh across vents and shafts, and the roof drains freed of the nest material packing them.
4
The follow-up visit

We come back to check the tension, the corners and any position the flock has moved to, and correct what has slackened before a bird finds it.

What bird and pigeon control includes

A recorded survey

Every ledge, condenser platform and shaft, photographed, with nesting separated from perching before anything is chosen.
Nest removal and drain clearing

Lifted wet rather than swept dry, bagged closed, and the roof drains freed of the nest material packing them.
Parasite treatment and sanitising

The nest position treated for ticks and mites, then the surface the droppings sat on sanitised.
Sealing and fitting the deterrents

Netting tensioned on a perimeter wire, spikes or wire on narrow projections, and metal mesh across ventilation openings.
Aftercare instructions

The condensate water, food left on the roof, and what should not sit beside a ledge if the attraction is to stay gone.
A follow-up on tension and corners

Netting slackens and corners open over time; the visit corrects that and closes any new position.

What is different about South Sub-Municipality

The South sub municipality runs from the edge of Old Makkah Road down to Al Khumrah and the southern corniche. Dense residential districts sit beside new subdivisions such as Al Sanabil and Al Taawun, warehouse fringes such as Al Saruriyah and Al Sarawat, and an old seaside settlement at Al Quzayn. Open stormwater channels cross the housing, and the warehouses, the vegetable and livestock markets and the nearby Islamic Port and Industrial City give pests shelter, food and year round humidity. Pressure is greatest in the older quarters, where drainage networks are ageing.

Questions about this district

Warehouses and markets are very close. Do pigeons come from them?

Yes. Animal waste and vegetable scraps supply food. Pigeons come to eat then settle on the nearby roof. The solution needs both a roof deterrent and cleanliness control around the warehouses.

The drainage channels are open and full of water. Do pigeons drink from them?

Yes, absolutely. Pigeons drink from open drainage channels. We advise closing or covering the channels quickly, alongside fitting the roof deterrent.

A building project is next door still under construction. Does it draw pigeons?

Yes, it does. Pigeons land on incomplete roofs and steel frames in the project. Once building finishes, your roof deterrent will protect you from pigeons coming from the project.

Ground floor apartments are occupied. Can pigeons enter through windows and doors?

They can if openings are left open. Pigeons may enter searching for food. The roof deterrent stops nesting, but controlling openings is important too.

Will pigeons return once construction around the district finishes?

No, if the deterrent is fitted securely. Pigeons do not return to places with a strong deterrent. But if drainage channels stay open and markets lack cleanliness, pigeons may return.

The medical city is next to us. Do pigeons enter there and affect patients?

Pigeons may approach the medical city because it has gardens and open spaces. We advise the city to fit deterrents too to protect patients.

How much does bird and pigeon control in Al Fadl 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 Al Fadl.
