Selayang and Batu Caves have older terraces around Selayang Baru, newer estates on the hillsides, and busy industrial and wholesale areas, including the Selayang wholesale market and Batu Caves industrial lots.
What we usually see in Selayang
Termites in older roofs and door frames
Houses from the 1960s to 1980s often still have timber roof trusses, wooden door frames, and built-in cabinets that termites feed on. Mud tubes along walls, hollow-sounding skirting, or wings near windows after rain are the usual first signs.
Ants, cockroaches, and garden mosquitoes
In newer terraces and semi-detached houses, most calls are about ants in the kitchen, cockroaches coming up through floor traps, and mosquitoes breeding in gardens, gutters, and potted plants.
Rats in warehouses and factories
Warehouses and factories attract rats through loading bays, stored goods, and drains. Most sites need bait stations on a mapped layout and regular service visits with a written log, which audits often ask for.
