Fly control in Harat Al Bab Al Jadid Makkah

Harat Al Bab Al Jadid is a new scheme south of Makkah with villas under construction and vacant plots between homes. Building sites, foundation pits and stacked materials shelter rodents and insects. Once villas are complete and gardens installed, moisture and new drainage networks arrive, and flies spread from their building-site refuge into occupied homes.

Why they keep coming back in Harat Al Bab Al Jadid

Dug foundations and stacked materials provide ideal shelter for rodents and insects before villas are finished. Flies hide there all day. The method is set out in full on the full Fly control page.

The first reason

Building sites shelter flies perfectly until villas are occupied

Foundation pits, stacked materials and open sites provide dark, damp shelter for flies. Contractors leave food scraps and standing water. Flies breed rapidly in this environment then spread to occupied villas nearby.

The second reason

Vacant plots and incomplete drainage remain a breeding source long term

Even when some villas are finished, surrounding vacant plots and incomplete drainage stay as fly sources. Wadi Uranah holds water after rain, speeding breeding.

The third reason

A new zone means long term treatment as building continues around residents

For years of building and development, the district needs continuous treatment. Every completed villa adds a bathroom and garden, each a potential fly source.

Before treatment

Where the flies are actually coming from

A new scheme on Al Laith Road between Al Shamiyah Al Jadid and Al Ghazzah Al Jadid, with bare ground and open building sites, marked by the south western Haram boundary.

House fly

House flies breed heavily in Harat Al Bab Al Jadid in standing water and foundation pits before villas are finished.

Blow fly

Blow flies are drawn to organic matter and wet soil on building sites and in newly planted gardens.

Fermenting residue

Food scraps left by workers and standing water in foundation pits provide rapid breeding.

The bin base

Foundation pit bases collect water and moisture and become a breeding hotspot throughout construction.

The film inside a drain

Incomplete drains carry water and scraps slowly, allowing fast fly breeding.

How we work

1
Inspect and trace the source

We trace the flies back to their medium: waste and the bin area, floor traps, drain runs and any standing organic wetness, and we identify the species from its size, its flight and where it settles.
2
Treat the breeding medium

Washing and scouring bin bases and floor traps, and a foam that treats the film inside the pipe, because removing the medium is the only thing that stops production.
3
Treat the resting surfaces

A fly spends most of its time settled on ceilings, cables, the tops of walls and the sunlit wall outside the door, and that is where the residual and the bait go, not into the air.
4
Proofing and the follow-up

We close the ways in and sort out the screens and the doors, then come back on a date matching the emergence of the pupae that were already in the medium on the first visit.

What fly control includes

A source tracing inspection

The species, the breeding medium and the route in, established before anything is applied.
Drains and floor traps

Scouring the film stuck inside the pipe and treating it with foam, which is where drain flies come from and almost nowhere else.
Residual on the resting surfaces

Ceilings, cables, the tops of walls and the sunlit wall outside the door, kept off food preparation surfaces.
Fly bait in protected positions

An attractant bait set at bin areas and service entrances, out of reach of children and pets and away from food.
Aftercare instructions

Ventilation, what to cover, and what needs a screen, an air curtain or a different waste routine.
A scheduled follow-up

A set date matching the emergence of the pupae, and re-treatment of any source still producing.

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

Why do flies thrive in a brand new district still under construction?

Building sites, foundation pits, standing water and stacked materials create ideal breeding conditions. Flies spread from there into occupied villas.

Does treatment differ while the villas are being built versus after completion?

Yes, greatly. During construction, treatment focuses on work sites and standing water. After completion, focus shifts to bathrooms, gardens and drains.

Do newly planted gardens in completed villas make the fly problem worse?

Yes. New gardens after the first irrigation provide ideal moisture. Flies find wet soil and compost excellent breeding ground.

Is the whole district treated at once or each villa separately?

Effective treatment covers building sites, vacant plots and occupied villas together. Flies move easily between these sources.

Does repeated rain in Wadi Uranah worsen the fly problem here?

Yes, significantly. Standing water after rain provides very rapid breeding ground. Treatment after rain is essential.

How many years does a new district take before flies stop being a problem?

Until construction and drainage and infrastructure are complete, flies remain a constant problem. This can take years, and treatment is essential throughout.

How much does fly control in Harat Al Bab 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 Harat Al Bab Al Jadid.
