Bird and pigeon control in Muad Makkah

Muad is a mixed neighbourhood outside the Haram boundary between Al Khadra and Al Sharai, formerly known as Al Sharai scheme two. Villas and apartment buildings occupy relatively complete construction along Al Qadisiyah Road, with numerous neighbourhood mosques and Al Sharai Park on its northern edge. Villas and apartment blocks stand close together, and pigeons shift easily from roof to roof.

Why they keep coming back in Muad

Multiple neighbourhood mosques supply food waste from worshippers, and closely positioned villas and apartments provide connected roofs that pigeons hop across easily. The method is set out in full on the full Bird and pigeon control page.

The first reason

Villas and apartments standing very close together

Detached villas and neighbouring apartment blocks stand side by side with narrow gaps, and roofs connect or nearly touch. Pigeons move from villa to apartment easily, so treating one without the other may not be enough.

The second reason

Multiple mosques supplying food and shelter

Many local mosques sit close to the houses, and worshippers leave food waste and water. Pigeons come directly from the mosque to the adjacent roof.

The third reason

Active main road with heavy traffic

Al Qadisiyah Road is a main axis with high traffic, and food waste may scatter widely. Pigeons sleep on roofs away from the street, so treating from above matters most.

Muad on the map

Muad sits about 2 km from Sharai and about 2 km from Salam.

Before treatment

The building decides which deterrent works

A mixed neighbourhood of villas and apartments along the orderly Al Qadisiyah Road axis, with several closely spaced local mosques and a neighbourhood park, just outside the Haram boundary.

Ledge width

Villa roof ledge may be slightly higher than the adjacent apartment, and deterrents differ by the height difference.

Outdoor condenser units on a building roof

Air conditioning platforms

Villa air conditioning drains to the garden, apartment units drain from the outer facade.

The nest itself

Nests form on both villa and apartment roofs, with apartment roofs holding more because the roof is shared.

Bird droppings marking an exterior concrete wall

The droppings pattern

Droppings from mosques may reach adjacent roofs because they stand close, and roof droppings wash onto the street.

Openings and shafts

Villa openings are few but windows may provide easy entry at night, apartment blocks may have more openings.

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 Muad

Mixed district: shops at street level with homes above them

Closely positioned villas and apartments with nearby mosques create an environment attractive to pigeons from multiple sources. Treatment focuses on coordinating neighbouring villas and apartments, with regular attention to areas surrounding the mosques.

Questions about this district

Our villa stands next to a small apartment block. Does the building's roof affect pigeon problems at our villa?

Yes: pigeons hop between closely positioned roofs. Treating just the villa may not work if the apartment has many nests.

Al Aqeel Mosque is very close to the villa. Do pigeons come directly from the mosque?

Mosques supply food and water, and pigeons may come from there. Roof treatment stops them settling regardless.

Our new villa has a high roof and the neighbouring villa has a lower one. Does the difference matter?

Yes: height difference makes it easy for pigeons to hop across. Deterrents need calibrating for relative heights.

Al Sharai Park beside the neighbourhood has wild birds and water. Does that affect our house?

The park shelters pigeons, but treating your roof stops them settling on your house.

The neighbourhood is outside the Haram boundary but very close. Do wild pigeons come from the Haram?

Flocks may come from the Haram, but roof treatment stops them settling regardless.

How many mosques are in this neighbourhood and do they all attract pigeons equally?

There is Al Aqeel, Hunayn and Sheikh Nasser Al Assaf Mosque: each may supply food. Treating roofs around all three mosques matters.

How much does bird and pigeon control in Muad 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 Muad.
