Preventive treatment in Al Sulaymaniyah Jeddah

Al Sulaymaniyah is an eastern residential district along King Abdullah Road with comparatively recent villas, flats and gated compounds next to the Haramain high speed railway station. Modern building and planned layout reduce some pressure but the railway station creates persistent humidity from intensive air conditioning and heavy foot traffic and constant movement. The programme reads humidity pressure and insects from the station, surrounding activity and seasonal wadis running nearby.

Why they keep coming back in Al Sulaymaniyah

The Haramain High Speed Railway Station creates persistent moisture from heavy air conditioning and constant crowds and movement, attracting insects and rodents. The method is set out in full on the full Preventive treatment page.

The first reason

Railway station creates persistent humidity and heavy traffic

The Haramain railway station runs day and night, and its intensive air conditioning raises humidity around Al Sulaymaniyah. Constant movement of passengers, staff and open doors provide routes for insects and rodents. The station creates a very safe environment for insects and rodents before they move into neighbouring homes.

The second reason

Modern villas and flats provide easy targets for insects

Modern villas and flats have not suffered long term seepage and cracks. But excavation from the station and new streets raise groundwater. New foundations on damp soil start cracking fast and insects from the station search for new homes.

The third reason

Seasonal wadis and groundwater around the station

Seasonal wadis run close to the station and heavy excavation raises groundwater. Soil is constantly damp around villas and flats neighbouring the station. Insects and rodents live in damp gaps around the station and move to homes at night.

Before treatment

What a preventive visit reads

An eastern residential district along King Abdullah Road next to Haramain High Speed Railway Station, bordering Al Naseem, Al Fayha and Quwaizah with comparatively recent villas, flats and gated compounds.

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

The base of the outside wall

The outside wall base next to the railway station is exposed to persistent moisture from station air conditioning and existing pipes. The band must be strong and a good barrier.

An exterior door threshold and the gap beneath it

Gaps and openings

Gaps and openings in a modern house are few but existing pipes offer routes for insects from the station. New windows and doors may seal well but electrical openings may offer routes.

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

Air conditioning condensate

Air conditioning drainage from the modern house adds moisture around the foundations. The station itself has heavy drains that raise humidity in the area.

Floor drains

Floor drains in a modern house may be connected to shared pipes with the station or the street. Water may pool from below and open routes for insects.

Irrigation against the wall

Irrigation against the wall is rare in Al Sulaymaniyah but existing pipes supply permanent moisture. The band must be a good barrier against moisture from beneath the floor.

The monitoring points

We place monitoring points at the foundation base beside the station and street, and at electrical openings and existing pipes beneath the floor.

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 Jamiah Sub-Municipality

Al Jamiah sub municipality spans the older south of Jeddah. Planned districts such as Al Fayha, Al Thaghr and Madain Al Fahd sit beside crowded popular quarters like the Nazlahs and Al Quraiyat, and beside cleared or clearing land in Ghulail, Petromin and Al Thaalibah awaiting redevelopment. Apartment buildings stand close together above dense runs of shops and restaurants along Old Makkah Road and Prince Majid Road. Drainage in the popular quarters is ageing, humid air drifts in from the port and refinery side to the west, and the flat low lying ground holds rainwater in narrow streets.

Questions about this district

Al Sulaymaniyah is new and well planned. Why is there pest pressure?

The district is new but the railway station beside it provides very safe shelter for insects and rodents. The station runs day and night and supplies moisture and food from passengers and staff. Pressure comes from the station first.

I live close to the railway station. Does that increase pressure on my home?

Yes, greatly. The station creates persistent humidity and heavy traffic and open doors provide routes for insects. Homes very close to the station need closer monitoring.

Excavation from the new street and station is still going on. Will pressure fall?

Yes, when excavation and building complete and water level settles pressure will fall. Until then visits are closer and monitoring is intensive.

My flat is some distance from the station. Is pressure lower than a flat right beside it?

Yes, distance reduces pressure slightly. But insects and rodents move through pipes and underground gaps. The programme reads actual pressure from the points, not distance alone.

The house is new and has no obvious leaks. Why is pest pressure appearing?

The new house is built on damp soil from station excavation and ongoing excavation. New cracks are starting to appear and moisture is entering from below. Insects from the station are searching for new homes.

The villa next to mine says dampness is severe despite the house being new. Why?

New construction does not stop moisture from the station and excavation. New foundations on damp soil allow seepage from below. Monitoring points show you where moisture actually enters.

How much does preventive treatment in Al Sulaymaniyah 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 Sulaymaniyah.
