Preventive treatment in Al Abidiyah Makkah

Al Abidiyah is a new development on the Taif road south east of Makkah, essentially the modern main campus of Umm Al Qura University with its colleges, university hospital, student housing and stadium. Ongoing construction and vast vacant plots dot the zone, wadis hold water after rain, and preventive treatment here protects against insects, rodents and reptiles arriving from the open ground, farm enclosures, wadis and water channels.

Why they keep coming back in Al Abidiyah

The wadis hold water after rain and from old agricultural channels, and rodents and reptiles arrive from this water and the open enclosures towards the buildings. The method is set out in full on our Preventive treatment service.

The first reason

Wadis and seasonal water

Wadi Uranah and Wadi Numan cross the campus and hold water after rain. This water attracts rodents, reptiles and large insects. Buildings near wadi beds need strong protection on the foundations and yards.

The second reason

Open ground and farm enclosures

Vast vacant plots and open farm enclosures around the buildings provide shelter, soil and water for rodents and reptiles. These animals crawl from the enclosures towards buildings at night.

The third reason

Ongoing construction and open sites

Continuing construction, excavations and open building sites provide ideal breeding ground for insects and rodents. Insects thrive at these sites and crawl towards the served buildings.

The character of Al Abidiyah

New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes

A new university campus with vast vacant plots, wadis, open farm enclosures and water channels needs comprehensive protection from insects, rodents and reptiles.

Before treatment

What a preventive visit reads

The modern main campus of Umm Al Qura University on the Taif road south east of the city, with colleges and a university hospital, student housing and stadium, crossed by Wadi Uranah and Wadi Numan, surrounded by wide vacant plots and open farm enclosures.

The base of an exterior wall where the building meets the ground

The base of the outside wall

Building bases and foundations on wadi beds need very strong protection, especially before the rainy season.

An exterior door threshold and the gap beneath it

Gaps and openings

Gaps around building foundations and open yards provide easy entry routes for rodents and reptiles from the farm enclosures.

An outdoor air conditioning unit with a condensate pipe on the wall

Air conditioning condensate

Water drains from university buildings and the hospital empty onto the ground around the foundations, creating seasonal damp.

Floor drains

Floor drains and channels around buildings and the stadium need close monitoring, especially near the wadis.

Irrigation against the wall

Sparse vegetation and wide back yards create seasonally damp zones at the foundations.

The monitoring points

Monitoring points around each building, the foundations, yards and boundaries near the wadis are read on every visit.

How we work

1
The baseline survey

We walk the outside boundary and then the inside: gaps under doors, pipe runs, vents, condensate lines, drains, the bin area and the store, and we fix the monitoring points before anything is applied.
2
Close the routes

Mesh on the vents, the gap under the door dealt with, the sleeve around a pipe run closed, and water put back into the drain nobody uses. Exclusion saves a spray that would otherwise repeat forever.
3
The band and the placed product

A residual band at the base of the wall outside and around door and window openings, with placed product inside joints and closed voids where it is warranted, and no open spray across living surfaces.
4
The scheduled visit: read, renew, record

We read the points to see which side is under pressure, renew the band where sun or irrigation has taken it, aim the visit at what the coming season opens up, and write down what was found and what was used.

What the preventive programme includes

A survey, then a check every visit

Entry points, moisture sources and storage, recorded before anything is applied and revisited each time.
Monitoring points that get read

At the wall and floor junction, under sinks and in the store, checked on every visit rather than only the last one.
A renewed exterior band

At the wall base and around the openings, put back wherever sun or irrigation took it between visits.
Drains, water lines and waste

The water seal in the drains, the condensate line and the ground around the bins, which are the standing water and food sources.
Between the visits

What to keep dry, what to keep closed, and what is worth a call before the next date. Ventilation we tell you before the visit.
A scheduled visit and a record of each

An agreed date, what the points held, what was treated, and what changed since last time.

What is different about Al Aziziyah (Makkah) Sub-Municipality

Al Aziziyah sub municipality runs from the Bin Dawood markets to the Al Hada road and carries pilgrim traffic to Mina. Hotel towers and furnished apartment blocks fill and empty with the Hajj and Ramadan seasons, and the kitchens, restaurants and markets along Al Masjid Al Haram Road and King Abdulaziz Road leave food waste at every peak. Southwards the fabric loosens into villas and planned streets in An Naseem and Al Awali, then Al Abidiyah's campus and the old farms of Al Husayniyah, where Wadi Uranah holds water after rain and farm enclosures shelter rodents and reptiles.

Questions about this district

Student housing is close to Wadi Uranah. Do seasonal waters bring more insects and rodents?

Yes, water attracts rodents, reptiles and large insects. Housing near the wadi needs strong protection on its foundation and yard, especially in the rainy season.

The campus is under continuous construction. Is preventive treatment possible now?

Yes, the preventive programme works during ongoing construction. It protects the served buildings from insects and rodents arriving from building sites.

The neighbouring ground is unplanned and may hold wild insects and snakes. How do we protect the building?

Unplanned ground provides natural habitat for snakes and insects. The external residual and monitoring stop them at the building boundary.

Is the spraying safe on the university hospital, students and open areas?

Yes, the products used are approved for spraying in occupied spaces and hospitals. The programme is designed to be safe for everyone.

The stadium and garden are open to all. Does the programme cover these large open areas?

Large open areas lie outside the core programme. However, the boundaries of the stadium and garden can be protected from insects and rodents.

How often do preventive visits come to a new university campus with open ground like Al Abidiyah?

Visit frequency follows what the monitoring points read. The open ground and wadis may make the threat more seasonal, peaking in the rainy season.

How much does preventive treatment in Al Abidiyah 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 Abidiyah.
