PECHS, Tariq Road, Dhoraji Colony & Mohammad Ali Society — same-day available, prices online, 90-day guarantee. Certified technicians dispatched daily from our DHA Phase 8 base.
PECHS was founded in 1950 by Mehmood Ahmad Nizami as one of Karachi's first cooperative housing societies, and it sits at the centre of one of the city's busiest residential-commercial corridors — bordered by Tariq Road's food and retail strip, Dhoraji Colony, and Mohammad Ali Society along Shahrah-e-Faisal. That mix of original 1950s bungalows and dense commercial frontage creates two very different pest problems side by side.
PECHS Block 2, the society's largest block, still has original bungalows with decades-old timber roof beams and window frames — the same termite exposure documented in DHA Phase 1 and Nazimabad's earliest blocks. Meanwhile Tariq Road's constant flow of restaurants, bakeries, and juice stalls sustains cockroach and rodent populations that spill into the residential streets behind it. A single generic treatment does not solve both problems at once, which is why our PECHS protocol differs block by block.
Every price is published upfront before you book. Fumigation starts from Rs 7,000, termite proofing from Rs 13,000, and our Annual Shield plan covers 4 visits a year plus 1 emergency callout between visits. Same-day appointments are often available if you contact us before 10am.
Our most-booked service across PECHS, Tariq Road, and Dhoraji Colony is general fumigation: a single-visit treatment for cockroaches, ants, and crawling insects, priced by property size from Rs 7,000. See the dedicated fumigation services in Karachi page for the full size-based price breakdown, process, and safety details, or check the complete price list for every service we offer.
PECHS was founded in 1950 by Mehmood Ahmad Nizami, making it one of Karachi's first cooperative housing societies. Block 2, the largest block in the society, still has a significant number of original 1950s bungalows — homes that have carried timber roof beams and wooden window frames for over seven decades.
That aging timber puts Block 2 and Block 6 in the same termite-risk category as DHA Phase 1's oldest bungalows and Nazimabad's earliest blocks: decades of cracks, gaps, and cavities in original masonry give subterranean and drywood termites an easy entry point into the roof structure and window frames.
Our approach in PECHS starts with a structural assessment before any chemical is applied — checking roof beams, window frames, and skirting boards for active termite galleries. For confirmed infestations we use a soil injection plus bait station combination, backed by a three-year structural guarantee.
Many PECHS bungalows have also been subdivided or converted into ground-floor commercial units over the decades. That mixed residential-commercial use raises cockroach pressure from food-service tenants spreading into the residential floors above — for these properties we add drainage cover treatment and perimeter gel baiting to the standard fumigation. General fumigation for a 200-sq-yard PECHS bungalow is priced at Rs 11,000.
Tariq Road is one of Karachi's busiest retail and food corridors, connecting PECHS to Bahadurabad. The dense clusters of restaurants, bakeries, and juice stalls along the strip generate a constant supply of grease and food waste — a steady driver for both cockroach and rodent populations.
That commercial pest pressure does not stay behind the shopfronts. Food waste and grease build-up in the strip sustains cockroach and rodent activity that moves into the residential blocks directly behind the main road, including PECHS and Mohammad Ali Society homes.
Our Tariq Road protocol includes drainage cover treatment and perimeter gel baiting at shared re-entry points between commercial and residential properties — a single fumigation that ignores shared drainage will see reinfestation within weeks on a strip this dense. For restaurants, bakeries, and juice stalls, we also run a dedicated commercial programme with monthly visits, documentation for health inspections, and WHO-approved chemicals safe for food-preparation environments.
High daytime foot traffic and vehicle congestion also concentrate uncollected food waste in the service lanes behind Tariq Road's shops — a direct rodent attractant for adjoining homes. Rodent control for a standard Tariq Road-adjacent home starts from Rs 13,000. See our commercial service.
Dhoraji Colony is a historically Memon residential colony adjoining KDA Scheme 7, roughly 3 km from PECHS. It is predominantly older bungalow-style housing with mature gardens — a property profile closer to DHA Phase 6's villa belt than to PECHS's mixed-use blocks, though at a smaller individual property scale.
Mature gardens create the same termite-stepping-stone risk documented in Phase 6: wooden garden furniture, boundary planters, and ornamental timber give subterranean termites a route from soil into the main structure, often before homeowners notice any activity indoors.
Our Dhoraji Colony termite programme covers the full property perimeter, garden structures included, not just the house — the same protocol we use for Phase 6's villa belt. Confirmed infestations are treated with soil injection and bait stations, backed by a three-year structural guarantee.
General fumigation for a Dhoraji Colony bungalow typically runs Rs 11,000 to Rs 16,000 depending on plot size (from Rs 7,000 for homes up to 100 sq yards), and termite proofing from Rs 13,000. Book a same-day inspection if you have noticed timber damage in garden furniture or boundary structures.
Mohammad Ali Society is a cooperative housing society bordering PECHS along Shahrah-e-Faisal. Its plots mix older single-family homes with newer construction built on subdivided land — a transitional housing stock similar in age-spread to DHA Phase 4.
Renovation activity on the society's older plots regularly displaces dormant cockroach and termite colonies that have been contained behind old tiles or wall cavities for years. When walls are opened, those colonies scatter through the structure rather than staying put — the same pattern we see across renovation-heavy pockets of the city.
Our technicians carry gel bait, IGR (insect growth regulator), and crack-and-crevice injection equipment specifically for post-renovation dispersal scenarios in Mohammad Ali Society. The most cost-effective approach if you are planning renovation work is a pre-renovation treatment followed by a post-renovation re-treatment once the work is complete — we offer this as a bundled package.
General fumigation in Mohammad Ali Society starts from Rs 7,000 for homes up to 100 sq yards. Contact us to book an inspection before your contractor starts work.
