Snake control in Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid Makkah

Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid comprises Crown Prince schemes seven and eight, the southernmost plots south of Makkah near Kasab Hills and Wadi Malakan. Construction is ongoing and vacant plots lie between homes, the Fifth Ring Road and the southern extension of Ibrahim Al Khalil Road cross it, and the excavations and building work open new passages that snakes can use easily.

A follow-up visit

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

Why they keep coming back in Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid

New projects leave wide excavations and open underground passages, and new drainage channels are not yet covered. The method is set out in full on our Snake control service.

The first reason

New development: digging and vacant ground

Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid is still under construction, and extensive excavations and building land provide open passages for snakes and rodents. Snakes move easily across exposed ground and dug zones from place to place.

The second reason

Wadi channels provide natural snake pathways

Wadi Malakan and new drainage channels provide natural passages for snakes and rodents to travel. Underground watercourses link the excavations to new homes easily.

The third reason

New foundations and hurried building leave gaps

Fast building pace and time pressure do not allow proper ground settlement, and new foundations subside faster than expected. Cavities widen more quickly than in carefully planned districts.

Before treatment

What the site tells us before we start

A newly developing district at moderate elevation between Kasab Hills and Wadi Malakan channels, construction is continuous and infrastructure remains incomplete.

A shed skin

Shed snake skin is left in excavations and open passages where protection from heat and light is high.

A winding trail across fine sand beside a wall

The track in the sand

Snake tracks appear in exposed soil, dug zones and soft earth around new homes.

Concrete blocks stacked against an exterior wall

Block and rubble piles

Piles of block, rubble, steel and materials provide temporary shelter for snakes and rodents in the cavities.

A closed metal gate with a visible gap beneath it

The gap under the gate

Gaps beneath new foundations widen quickly due to rapid subsidence and incomplete settlement.

Rodent burrows

Rodent burrows spread in every damp spot in the excavations, channels and wadis.

Standing water in excavations and open channels provides constant moisture and drinking places for animals.

How we work

1
Inspect and locate

We work the perimeter, the garden and the service rooms with a torch and a mirror, reading the tracks, the skins and the burrows to establish whether it is still on site and where it came in.
2
Safe removal

It comes out on a hook and tongs into a closed container and is released away from buildings where that is possible, with no chasing it around a room.
3
Close the routes, take away the shelter

A strip under the gate, sleeves around pipe entries, tight covers on the floor drains, and the blocks and palm fronds moved off the wall line.
4
Cut the food, then come back

We treat the rodents and the geckos on the perimeter, then return once that activity has settled to check the sealed points and look for any fresh track.

What snake control includes

A recorded site inspection

Perimeter, garden, service rooms and pipe entries, with tracks and skins recorded before anything is applied.
Drains and entries closed

Tight covers on floor drains, sleeves around waste and air conditioning pipe runs, and the weep holes in the boundary wall closed.
Rodent work around the building

Closed bait stations on the rodent runs, because cutting the prey is what makes the site stop suiting them.
Perimeter treatment down the food chain

Insects on lit walls hold the geckos, and geckos feed some species, so we treat the chain from the bottom up.
A perimeter housekeeping list

What to move off the wall line, how low to cut the ground cover, where the lighting sits, and what to do if you see another one.
A scheduled follow-up

A set date to check the sealed points, the rodent stations and any new track in the sand.

The character of Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid

New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes

A new development scheme faces unique challenges: wide excavations provide open pathways, fast building leaves cavities, and nearby wadis provide a natural snake source.

Questions about this district

Do vacant ground and excavations attract snakes directly?

Excavations provide open pathways for snakes, and exposed ground provides safe resting places. Snakes come from hills and wadis and use the dug zones to enter homes.

Are natural wadi channels a direct snake source?

Wadis provide natural habitat for snakes, and new drainage channels dug beside them connect directly from the wadi to homes.

Does fast building mean wider foundation gaps?

Yes. Fast building does not allow proper ground settlement, and foundations subside rapidly. Cavities widen faster than in carefully planned districts.

Are Kasab Hills a source of wild snakes?

Hills provide natural habitat, and new excavations offer easy routes for snakes from the hills into new homes.

Are the first occupied homes more exposed than later ones?

Yes. Early homes are surrounded by excavations, vacant plots and open passages. Once construction fills the surrounding area, the risk reduces relatively.

Is the railway station or expressway a nearby source?

The station and road are close but outside the scheme itself. Closeness may cause seasonal migration of rodents and snakes into the new district.

How much does snake control in Al Qashashiyah 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 Qashashiyah Al Jadid.
