|October 06, 2025
The Dubai Municipality announced disciplinary action against 28 pest control companies for failing to comply with approved standards, despite having received prior instructions and guidance.
The municipality emphasised that disciplinary action is a last resort, taken only after all awareness-raising efforts have been exhausted.
It explained that there are now 283 approved and licensed pest control companies operating within an integrated system aimed at protecting public health and ensuring a safe and clean environment for Dubai residents and visitors.
The municipality confirmed that its inspection teams regularly monitor these companies through scheduled and random inspections to ensure compliance with approved regulations and policies.
Adel Abdullah Al Karani, Director of the Public Health Services Department at Dubai Municipality, explained that the launch of the Professional Diploma in Public Health Pest Control is the first of its kind to be accredited by the Ministry of Education and the Knowledge and Human Development Authority in Dubai.
