Bird and pigeon control in Bayah Makkah

Bayah is a recently renamed scheme at the easternmost edge of Al Sharai behind Al Mughammas, spread across broad ground around the bed of Wadi Al Sharai between Jabal Qardah and the hamlets of Al Mazr and Al Shubah. Residential plots are on the market with very little building yet, and pigeons migrate from the wadi and villages to the few new houses seeking safe elevated shelter.

Why they keep coming back in Bayah

The vast vacant plots create a safe flight corridor for pigeons between the wadi and villages. Pigeons nest on the few existing buildings very rapidly. Birds move from the wadi and farms to new houses seeking safe elevated places. The method is set out in full on what Bird and pigeon control involves.

The first reason

Wadi Al Sharai supplies water and natural shelter

The Wadi Al Sharai bed passes through the area and provides seasonal water and pigeon shelter. Farms on wadi banks supply food. Pigeons move easily from the wadi and farms to the few new buildings seeking safe nesting ledges.

The second reason

Vast vacant land provides safe feeding passages

Plots on the market and open space create safe pigeon flight corridors between wadi and villages. Birds use these areas as temporary staging grounds between wadi and houses. The few buildings become obvious nesting targets.

The third reason

New buildings are rare and very spread out

Building is very sparse and the new houses are extremely widely spaced. Pigeons concentrate nesting on the few available buildings. Each house may carry multiple nests because other options are very limited.

Bayah sits about 3.5 km from Hatim and about 4.5 km from Mughammas.

Before treatment

The building decides which deterrent works

The area surrounds the bed of Wadi Al Sharai and holds residential plots on the market with very little construction. Small farms line the wadi banks, and the nearby hamlets of Al Mazr and Al Shubah provide natural pigeon gathering points. The few buildings are very widely spaced amid vacant land.

New building ledges here are uniform and high, poured concrete, and need standard tall deterrent sizes.

Air conditioning platforms

Window air conditioners on new buildings may exist or be planned later, and need separate treatment.

The nest itself

Nesting on new buildings starts early because vacant land and the wadi create high pressure.

The droppings pattern

Droppings on fresh ledges are very visible against light concrete colour and attract more birds.

Roof tanks on new houses are enclosed but surrounding ledges need strong deterrents.

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.

The character of Bayah

New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes

In a newly developing area like this, pigeon control differs because building is very rare and vacant land is vast. Pressure from the wadi, villages and farms is constant and the few buildings become concentrated targets.

Questions about this district

Does Wadi Al Sharai and the hamlets Al Mazr and Al Shubah supply extra pigeons?

Yes, the wadi and nearby hamlets and farms are stable pigeon sources. Pigeons move from there to the few new houses seeking nesting sites. Treatment here focuses on strong deterrents that repel birds from the wadi and villages.

Vast vacant plots supply pigeon food. Can I do anything?

You cannot treat vacant land on the market. Treatment focuses on strong house ledge deterrents. As more building occurs, a group treatment strategy becomes possible.

Very few new buildings exist. Does each house carry multiple nests?

Yes, pigeons concentrate on the few available buildings. Each house may carry multiple nests because other choices are very limited. Treatment focuses on removing all nests and fitting strong deterrents.

Will vacant plots stay empty and supply permanent pigeon food?

Yes, even if plots build up, the wadi and villages stay very close. Pigeon pressure will remain high. Treatment of new buildings focuses on strong continuing deterrents.

Do pigeons move from the wadi straight to houses or stop in vacant land first?

Birds use vacant plots as safe flight corridors and temporary shelters. When they find a built house, they move to nesting on safe ledges. Deterrents stop them settling permanently on buildings.

How many treatments per year does a new area like Bayah need?

The wadi and villages supply constant pressure. One treatment in year one may not suffice. Treatment every three to four months is recommended because pressure stays high from wadi and village pigeon sources.

How much does bird and pigeon control in Bayah 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 Bayah.
