Preventive treatment in Al Mansour Makkah

Al Mansour is among Makkah's oldest districts strung along long Al Mansour Street running from Al Hajoun Road down to Ibrahim Al Khalil Street. Small shops and markets line the ground floors with old apartment blocks standing above, housing neighbourhood residents and workers. Small shops and restaurants provide steady food sources, while the old buildings and aged pipes provide safe shelter for rodents and cockroaches.

Why they keep coming back in Al Mansour

Dense shops and restaurants along the street provide constant food sources, and old apartment blocks above contain numerous gaps that allow insects to move easily between shops and flats. The method is set out in full on what Preventive treatment involves.

The first reason

Dense small shops and restaurants packed along the long street

Al Mansour Street is a long busy commercial spine crowded with small shops, restaurants, eateries and cafes. This commercial density provides endless food sources for rodents and cockroaches, and irregular cleaning and constant waste make the street a permanent insect source.

The second reason

Direct blending of commercial and residential use

Every flat in blocks above shops faces direct pressure from the shop below it. Gaps and cracks in floors and pipes allow insects and rodents to move freely from shop to flat without obstacle.

The third reason

Very old buildings and aged drainage systems

Al Mansour holds very old apartment blocks built decades ago, with aged water and sewage pipes containing large cracks and holes. These pipes provide safe year round shelter for rodents.

What a preventive visit reads

An old commercial district along long Al Mansour Street from Al Hajoun Road to the middle ring road, with shops and markets on ground floors and old apartment blocks above.

The base of the outside wall

The base of the exterior wall in Al Mansour faces pressure from the busy commercial street and constant waste, so we lay a thick residual band and seal with strong durable material to block rodents.

An exterior door threshold and the gap beneath it

Gaps and openings

Gaps around pipes, small openings in walls and gaps between floors become safe routes for rodents from shops, so we seal them with durable material and flexible filler.

Air conditioning condensate

Air conditioning condensate pools at the base of exterior walls creating a damp zone attractive to insects, so we place a monitoring point near the outlet.

Floor drains

Floor drains in shops and passages may clog from constant grease and waste, so we inspect them regularly and ensure water drains freely.

Irrigation against the wall

Irrigation against walls is rare in Al Mansour but water from shop and street cleaning pools against walls, so we focus on sealing gaps at the line where walls meet damp ground.

The monitoring points

Monitoring points are placed at shop and flat entrances, in gaps between floors, near restaurant drains, in storerooms and in dark void spaces.

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.

The character of Al Mansour

Commercial area: offices, showrooms and small stores

In a commercial area like Al Mansour, dense shops and restaurants provide permanent food sources and safe shelter for rodents and cockroaches. The programme focuses on treating shops separately and protecting boundaries between shops and flats, and sealing vertical gaps and shared pipes that allow insects to move between floors.

Questions about this district

Is a flat protected if the shop below has no treatment?

A flat directly above a shop without protection faces continuous pressure from insects and rodents. The programme focuses on sealing gaps between floors tightly and checking shared pipes.

How often do flats in Al Mansour need preventive visits?

Flats in Al Mansour need preventive visits every two weeks because of steady pressure from shops, restaurants and storerooms. The shops themselves may need weekly visits.

Are small restaurants more dangerous than other shops?

Yes, restaurants and cafes provide larger food sources and higher humidity. We focus on intensive regular spraying of restaurants and gaps around their drains.

Are pipes shared between shop and flat a problem source?

Yes, shared pipes provide direct rodent routes. We focus on sealing any holes in pipes and treating sewage passages.

Can shops and flats be protected separately?

Yes but protection is less effective because pressure comes from both directions. A unified programme for shop and flat is more effective.

Does location next to Al Hindawiyah increase pressure?

Yes, neighbouring Al Hindawiyah may be an additional pressure source. We focus on boundaries between Al Mansour and Al Hindawiyah.

How much does preventive treatment in Al Mansour 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 Mansour.
