Bed bug control in Al Salihiyah, Riyadh

Al Salihiyah is an older district of mid-rise apartment blocks and simple local shops, with high density and buildings sitting so close together they nearly touch. Bed bugs move easily between adjacent flats through shared walls, pipes and gaps only inches apart.

Why a surface spray is not enough

  • Bites that ruin sleep

    Bed bug bites show up in rows on the arms and neck and itch through the night, breaking sleep for weeks.

  • Stop it spreading to other rooms

    Bed bugs crawl through electrical outlets and along furniture legs into the next room, so what begins with one mattress ends up across several rooms if it is left.

  • Treatment that reaches where spray cannot

    The treatment we choose after inspection reaches into the mattress padding and the weave of the fabric and kills the insect and its eggs deep inside, which a surface wipe or a passing spray simply cannot do.

  • After travel or second-hand furniture

    Bed bugs usually enter the home in a suitcase, a used mattress or a moved sofa, and they may not show for weeks.

Why the job is different in Al Salihiyah

Al Salihiyah's mid-rise flats are old with many gaps between units, and when bed bugs are found in one flat they are usually in adjacent flats too. The whole method is set out in the details of our bed bug control service.

  • Old buildings sitting nearly side by side

    Al Salihiyah apartment blocks are very old and sit almost directly touching, with shared walls between them thin and full of gaps from age and weathering. Bed bugs crawl through these gaps from one flat to the next in minutes, not hours.

  • Old water and sewage pipes cracked and leaking

    Water and sewage pipes in Al Salihiyah are very old and many are cracked and leaking, and bed bugs use these pipes as a quick route between flats above and below. Every gap around an old pipe is a bed bug highway.

  • Flats crowded with many people and old furniture

    Flats in Al Salihiyah are fairly small but house large families or multiple workers, and furniture is old with many gaps for bed bugs to hide in. Crowding and age together mean bed bugs spread fast and through many different places.

What's Included

Al Salihiyah sits north of Ghubairah near Al Bathaa Road and King Faisal Road in one of Riyadh's oldest and densest districts. This age and crowding mean old walls and pipes have many gaps through which bed bugs move easily.

  • Seams and bed frames searched

    In Al Salihiyah we check neighbouring units above and below because bed bugs travel through shared walls and old pipes.

  • Harbourages treated in depth

    Openings and cracks around old pipes in Al Salihiyah get special attention because bed bugs use them as highways between units.

  • Mattress and base treated

    Old and crowded furniture in small flats is inspected carefully because bed bugs hide deep in padding and seams.

  • Frame cracks and behind headboards

    Thin old shared walls between flats receive careful attention during treatment because they are the main route bed bugs use to move between units.

  • A residual layer for later hatching

    After the first treatment we return one week later to confirm bed bugs have not returned from neighbouring flats.

  • Re-checked after two weeks

    We recommend coordinating with neighbours for simultaneous treatment because high density and old buildings make bed bug transfer very easy.

Questions before booking

If the flat above us has bed bugs will they come down to ours?

Yes, bed bugs crawl through pipes and gaps in shared walls from above and below. In Al Salihiyah old walls and cracked pipes make this transfer very easy.

Do you check neighbouring flats if you find bugs in ours?

Yes, we check flats above, below and beside yours if we find bed bugs. If we find infestation in neighbouring flats we recommend treating all of them together because the bugs will return easily otherwise.

Our water and sewage pipes are very old, is that a problem?

Yes, old cracked pipes give bed bugs direct routes to travel between flats. We treat every opening around pipes with special care in Al Salihiyah.

We inherited old furniture that might carry bed bugs, how do we check?

Yes, old furniture can hide bed bugs deep in its seams and padding. We recommend close inspection before bringing it into the flat or isolating suspect furniture until we can check it.

Is treating just our flat enough if neighbours have bugs too?

No, treating only your flat will not stop bed bugs returning from neighbouring flats, so we recommend coordinating treatment with neighbours to make it work.

How often should we check after treatment in an old building like Al Salihiyah?

We recommend weekly checks for one month after treatment, and if you see any signs of bed bugs at any time call us immediately because transfer from neighbours is very easy in Al Salihiyah.
