Preventive treatment in Al Khansa Makkah
Al Khansa is a crowded mixed district between Al Hajj Street and Al Abtah Street, with old popular houses, newer apartment blocks, the Al Adl Cemetery and shops and restaurants on the ground floors. The location between two main streets draws steady imam traffic, visitors and continuous movement. Preventive treatment protects homes from the insects that arrive from the street, the shops and the crowded common areas.

Why they keep coming back in Al Khansa
Narrow streets, commercial shops, restaurants and continuous visitor flow leave waste, water and food scattered everywhere, and insects are thick here because food and shelter fill every corner. The method is set out in full on what Preventive treatment involves.
Ground floor shops and restaurants
Shops, restaurants and kitchens on the ground floors below upper flats provide multiple food sources. Insects breed in these shops and crawl through shared entrances and cracks into the flats above.
The two main streets and constant movement
Al Hajj Street and Al Abtah Street are two busy main streets crowded with traffic, visitors and pilgrims. Insects arrive on the street with visitors and goods, and the narrow lanes trap insects and damp between them.
Shared areas and continuous crowding
The shared entrances, staircases and small courtyards are very narrow and fill with damp and street litter. These spaces are centres of insect activity, and close monitoring here is critical.
Al Khansa on the map
Al Khansa sits about 1 km from Rai Adhakhir and about 1.5 km from Al Maabdah.
Open in Google MapsWhat a preventive visit reads
A densely packed district between Al Hajj and Al Abtah streets, with old popular houses and modern apartment buildings, shops and restaurants on the ground floors and the Al Adl Cemetery at its edge.
The base of the outside wall
The base of the shared entrance and the zone surrounded by commercial shops needs strong residual because insects arrive from the street and the shops.
Gaps and openings
Gaps between the shop and the flat and small cracks in the walls offer easy routes for insects to climb upwards.
Air conditioning condensate
The restaurant and shop drains empty into the street or small courtyard, creating continuous damp attractive to insects.
Floor drains
Floor drains in the small courtyard and narrow street with standing water are widespread, and mosquitoes breed rapidly.
Irrigation against the wall
Little vegetation around the flat or in the small courtyard is watered, but most moisture comes from the shops and street.
The monitoring points
Monitoring points at the entrance, street, small courtyard and shop-facing windows 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.

Questions about this district
My flat is directly above a restaurant. Do insects enter quickly from below?
Yes, a restaurant is a direct source of insects and flies. The residual and monitoring focus on the shared entrance, gaps between the flat and restaurant, and windows facing down.
The very narrow street holds water and rubbish. Does this bring more insects to the home?
Water and rubbish in the narrow street attract insects and mosquitoes. Homes facing the street directly need stronger monitoring on the entrance and street-facing windows.
The Al Adl Cemetery is next to the quarter. Does this affect insect and rodent activity?
Cemeteries provide shelter and damp soil. Nearness to a cemetery may increase rodents more than flying insects. The programme guards against insects primarily.
A shop is right next to the flat door. Is this a direct source of insects?
Yes, a shop beside the door is a very direct source. The residual and monitoring focus on that side, gaps around the door and window.
The small shared courtyard has water running through it constantly. Does this breed lots of mosquitoes?
Running water in the small courtyard is ideal mosquito breeding ground. Close monitoring of this spot is essential, and the residual protects the flat entrance and windows facing it.
How often do preventive visits come to a crowded mixed district like Al Khansa?
High density, commercial shops and crowding make the threat constant. Visits come very close together, and the points are read on every call.
How much does preventive treatment in Al Khansa 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 Khansa.
