Gecko control in Al Judairiyah Al Jadid Makkah

Al Judairiyah Al Jadid is one of the Crown Prince schemes close to Al Ukayshiyah in south Makkah, growing rapidly along Al Judairiyah Al Jadid Street with residential plots and new villas between Al Souq Al Saghir Al Jadid and Al Hajlah Al Jadid. Wadi Uranah crosses the district and the moisture and post-rain floods create variable insect pressure. Nearby mountains and the southern Haram boundary markers provide natural gecko and scorpion pathways.

  • Targeted, not broadcast

    Product goes into cracks and runways, never sprayed across open surfaces.

  • Told before we start

    What we will use, where it goes, and what to cover or move before we arrive.

  • A follow-up visit

    We return after the first treatment, because what survives it does not show on the day.

  • Homes and businesses

    Apartments and villas, and kitchens and stores that need a record of each visit.

Why they keep coming back in Al Judairiyah Al Jadid

Ongoing construction in Al Judairiyah Al Jadid leaves fresh gaps monthly, and treatment may need to focus on new building walls rather than sweep the vast bare ground. The method is set out in full on Gecko control in detail.

The first reason

New villas and rapidly emerging cracks

New villas in Al Judairiyah develop fresh wall cracks very rapidly because of ground movement and varying moisture. New openings around pipes, windows and doors are not yet fully sealed and need regular checks.

The second reason

Wadi Uranah, floods and lingering moisture

Wadi Uranah and its tributaries carry flood water through the scheme after rain, then dry leaving moisture and silt. The lingering dampness attracts worms and insects, worsening gecko pressure immediately after each rainfall.

The third reason

Mountains, southern Haram boundary and natural pathways

Jabal Al Raqid, the southern Haram boundary and other nearby mountains provide safe natural passages for geckos and scorpions descending into the scheme in search of water and insects after building disturbs their habitat.

The character of Al Judairiyah Al Jadid

New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes

New development schemes widen the problem because fresh villa walls develop cracks rapidly and vacant ground supplies unending insect pressure, so treating a single villa may need monthly return visits because of emerging cracks and continuous outside pressure.

Before treatment

The food, the opening and the crevice decide the method

Al Judairiyah Al Jadid sits on mostly bare ground with white granted plots, new villas and open building sites. Drainage and paving are incomplete in parts. Wadi Uranah and its tributaries hold water after rain.

The house gecko

The house gecko in Al Judairiyah Al Jadid arrives from mountains, the wadi and vacant ground in search of water and insects around new villas.

An outdoor wall lamp lit after dark

Outdoor lighting

Exterior lights on new villas attract strong insect concentrations at night, drawing geckos to lights and insects from mountains, the wadi and bare plots.

Window mesh

Mesh on new villa windows may be incomplete or shift slightly with building settlement and ground movement.

Air-conditioner pipes passing through an outside wall

The air-conditioner sleeve

New air-conditioner sleeve gaps provide direct insect entry from mountains, the wadi and vacant plots, attracting geckos.

An electrical distribution board mounted on a wall

Meter boxes and electrical panels

New electrical panels and meters supply light and develop cracks rapidly, drawing insects from mountains and the wadi.

The garden and the irrigation

Home gardens and modern irrigation need careful management because extra moisture combined with post-flood wadi moisture creates ideal conditions for rapid insect breeding.

How we work

  1. 1

    Inspect at night and find the source

    We come at the hour it is actually moving, and establish which wall face it is living on, which lights are gathering its food, the entry points and the crevices it wedges into by day.

  2. 2

    Treat the food source

    We treat the flying and crawling insects on the wall faces, around the perimeter and around the lighting. Once the food goes, the wall stops being worth staying on.

  3. 3

    Close the openings and clear the crevices

    We seal the air-conditioner sleeve, screen the vents and drain outlets, deal with the underside of doors, and place a repellent in the crevices and behind panels so they move out before anything is closed.

  4. 4

    The follow-up visit

    We come back once the glued eggs have hatched, check the seals held, and re-treat any wall face where activity has returned.

What gecko control includes

  • A technician inspecting with a flashlight

    A recorded night inspection

    Wall faces, lighting, entry points and egg sites, all established before anything is applied.

  • A spray nozzle in close detail

    Treating the insects on the walls

    Targeted treatment around lighting, windows and the building perimeter, because the food is what keeps it there.

  • A gloved hand applying bait into a joint

    Placed repellent in the crevices

    Behind panels, in wall joints and at the ceiling-void entries, where it sits out the day.

  • A metal floor drain

    Screening vents and drain openings

    Shafts, vents and the condensate outlet, which are entry points nobody looks at.

  • A clean kitchen counter after treatment

    Aftercare instructions

    Ventilation, what to cover, and the change to the outside lighting that stops the insects gathering again.

  • The visit report being written on a clipboard

    A scheduled follow-up

    A set date after the first treatment, a check on the seals and re-treatment of anything still active.

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

Is a new villa in Al Judairiyah more exposed than villas in older schemes?

Yes. New villa walls are fresh and cracks develop rapidly. Al Judairiyah's location between mountains, the wadi and wide bare plots increases pressure.

Do floods in Wadi Uranah after heavy rain increase geckos rapidly?

Yes. Floods bring moisture, silt and new insects. Lingering post-flood moisture creates ideal conditions for rapid insect and worm breeding attracting geckos immediately after rain.

How many times per season must a new villa be treated in Al Judairiyah?

A new villa with rapidly emerging cracks needs at least two visits per season: an initial treatment and a second after two weeks for fresh cracks, possibly a third after rain.

Does active building work supply new gaps for geckos and scorpions?

Yes. Building sites, fill, excavations and emerging gaps provide safe shelter for geckos and scorpions before the neighbourhoods complete.

Does the location between Al Souq Al Saghir Al Jadid and Al Hajlah Al Jadid mean more geckos?

Possibly. The souq provides insect sources and human activity. Al Hajlah shares the wadi and bare ground, so pressure is balanced.

Do Jabal Al Raqid and the southern Haram boundary provide gecko and scorpion pathways?

Yes. Mountains and boundaries provide safe natural pathways for geckos and scorpions descending in search of water and insects in the new scheme.

How much does gecko control in Al Judairiyah 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 Judairiyah Al Jadid.
