What attracts pests in Tuwaiq, and how we treat it
Pest control in Tuwaiq in west Riyadh starts from its buildings: villas and apartment buildings near Western Ring Road. A villa has two layers of defence: an outer ring of boundary wall, garden, annex and manholes, and an inner one of kitchen, bathrooms and store; successful treatment works from the outside in. Through the long hot summer cockroaches are active in drains and manholes, and the American cockroach usually lives in sewers, so these points are treated and their covers sealed before the inside. The right plan: inspect the perimeter, garden and manholes, use gel baits in the kitchen instead of broad spraying, treat termites in the soil if tubes appear, then a follow-up visit.
Most likely pests in Tuwaiq
| Pest | Where it hides | Suitable treatment |
|---|---|---|
| cockroaches | drains, manholes, kitchens and bathrooms | gel baits in cracks and sealed drain covers |
| ants | food residue, sugars and tile cracks | spot baits and tracing the trail to its source |
| termites | damp soil and timber touching it | check mud tubes, then a soil barrier or baits |
| scorpions | vacant plots, stones, building debris and walls | clearing the perimeter, sealing gaps and targeted outdoor treatment |
