Why they keep coming back in Al Hajlah Al Jadid

During construction phases, stray animals and rats shelter in stacked materials and open foundation pits, then migrate into newly completed villas as families move in. The method is set out in full on our Flea control service.

The first reason

Building materials harbour endless flea populations

Temporary stores, bare ground and exposed foundation trenches hold fleas in multiple generations before they transfer to new homes. Makeshift bedding, work clothes and bags at building sites carry fleas that migrate with workers into finished villas.

The second reason

Incomplete roads and open service trenches feed them

Unfinished drainage networks and exposed foundation trenches provide perfect damp breeding ground for fleas. Rats living in these open channels carry fleas into the home when they enter under the newly built house.

The third reason

Strays sheltering under and around new villas

New villas in Al Hajlah Al Jadid are built on deep foundations with open spaces beneath them. Stray dogs and cats shelter under the houses or on exposed surfaces and leave fleas in the cavities surrounding the building.

The character of Al Hajlah Al Jadid

New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes

New homes mean fleas coming from outside, not bred inside. Treatment focuses on foundations, low cavities and protecting the entry from strays before they deliver fleas indoors.

Before treatment

The resting places map the infestation

Crown Prince scheme five east of the Saudi German Hospital, with open land, ongoing construction and sports pitches; Wadi Uranah crosses the low ground and carries rodent populations from surrounding areas.

The base of the carpet

Carpet base in new villas is often laid before occupation, and fleas from strays breach it from beneath the foundations in the opening weeks.

Where the animal sleeps

Pet sleeping areas in new homes quickly become flea havens if the surrounding floor is contaminated from outside sources.

Flea dirt

Flea dirt in Al Hajlah Al Jadid appears around cavities under foundations and in the low corners of walls that need extra sealing.

Furniture edges and upholstery

Furniture edges and upholstery in new villas hold fleas because external treatment alone cannot isolate the home from outside infestation.

Joints in a hard floor

Floor joints in newly finished villas with fresh finishes may harbour fleas from building materials or from animals that sheltered on the site before construction ended.

Damp shade outdoors

Damp shade around foundation cavities and beneath the villa offers ideal breeding conditions for fleas carried by strays and rats.

How we work

1
Inspect and confirm

We confirm it is fleas rather than another biting insect, and fix the animal's sleeping points, its routes and the shaded ground outside. Where there is no animal in the house, we look for the host they came from.
2
Treat the floors and soft furnishings

A residual with an insect growth regulator, worked into the carpet base, the floor and wall junction and the edges under furniture. The regulator stops a larva becoming an adult, which is what breaks the cycle.
3
The host and the shade outside

We treat the shaded ground and the outdoor lying spots, and we agree with you that the animal's veterinary treatment happens on the same day, because any host left out of the job re-seeds the floor.
4
Vacuuming, then the follow-up visit

Repeated vacuuming vibrates the floor and draws the pupae out onto a treated surface. We come back about two weeks later to take the emerged generation before it lays.

What flea control includes

Confirmation before anything is applied

Telling a flea bite from the alternatives, and fixing the resting places and the centre of the infestation.
Carpet base and floor line treatment

A residual and a growth regulator worked down into the pile and under furniture edges, not laid across the visible surface.
Shade and damp outdoors

The shaded patches by entrances and around drains and taps, the only ground outside where larvae survive.
The source when there is no pet

Stray cats sheltering under an outside stair, or rodents in the voids, each handled on a different footing.
The vacuum schedule and aftercare

When to vacuum, how to empty the machine, and why the carpet is not steam cleaned afterwards. Ventilation time we give you on the call, because it changes with the product and the space.
A follow-up timed to emergence

A date about two weeks on, timed to the pupae leaving the cocoons, and re-treatment of any room where fresh bites are still starting.

What is different about South Makkah Sub-Municipality

South Makkah sub municipality is the belt of Crown Prince schemes south of Al Ukayshiyah, along the Al Laith road and the extension of Ibrahim Al Khalil Road to the Fifth Ring Road and the Non Muslims bypass. Most of it is still bare: granted plots awaiting houses, new villas standing alone, open building sites and unfinished paving and drainage. Wadi Uranah and its tributaries cross the low ground and hold water after rain, hills close it in, and rodents, reptiles and scorpions shelter in stacked materials and foundation pits before the neighbourhoods fill up.

Questions about this district

Do fleas in a brand new home come from outside or inside it?

In Al Hajlah Al Jadid, fleas come from outside: from stray animals and rats in the open areas and building sites. We treat the house perimeter, the foundations and the spaces under the floor before treating the interior.

Is treatment before we move in better than after?

Yes, preventive treatment before occupation stops infestation from the start. But if fleas appear after you move in, we treat inside and outside together to cut off new sources of entry.

What about pets we bring into the new house?

Have the animal checked before moving it. If we find fleas, treat the animal first at a vet, then treat the house and surroundings together in the same week.

Do site workers bring fleas into the home when they finish construction?

Yes, worker clothing, bags and even furniture used on building sites can carry fleas. We focus treatment on high-traffic areas: entrances, low spaces and under furniture.

Do the spaces under a new villa need special treatment?

Cavities under the foundations and villa offer perfect shelter for rats and strays carrying fleas. We treat these areas carefully as foundations dry and are sealed.

How many times must we treat before fleas are gone from a new home?

At least two visits spaced two weeks apart. The first covers perimeter and interior. The second catches emerging generations. A third may be needed if new fleas arrive from outside.

How much does flea control in Al Hajlah Al Jadid 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 Hajlah Al Jadid.
