Pest Control Services In Arizona
Desert pests are after one thing, water, and your house has plenty of it. That’s why scorpion and termite work makes up most Arizona jobs.
Termite ControlDesert subterranean termites build mud tubes up block walls and stucco. Check the base of your walls for pencil-thick dirt lines.
Roach ExterminationAmerican roaches live in sewer lines and come up through drains, especially in summer. A drain treatment helps a lot.
Rodent ControlRoof rats have spread across the Phoenix area since 2001. Citrus trees and palms give them food and a way onto the roof.
Bed Bug TreatmentSnowbird season brings luggage and rentals, and bed bugs ride along. Heat treatment works well here.
Ant ControlHarvester ants and fire ants bite hard. Treat mounds near play areas and walkways first.
Scorpion ControlArizona bark scorpions are the most venomous scorpion in the US. They climb walls, so sealing gaps and weatherstripping matter.What To Know About Pests In Arizona
Arizona’s hot, dry desert means pests are hunting one thing above all else: water. Your home is the easiest place to find it, so they keep coming year-round. Bark scorpions slip inside through tiny gaps. Desert subterranean termites are active statewide too, building mud tubes up block walls and foundations.
Roaches, ants, and spiders all push indoors looking for moisture, and monsoon rains bring a mosquito spike on top of it.
When Pests Are Most Active In Arizona
- Spring
- Scorpions get active once nights stay warm. Termites start building tubes, and bees look for nest spots.
- Summer
- Peak scorpion months. Monsoon storms in July and August bring termite swarms and mosquitoes.
- Fall
- Roof rats get busy as citrus ripens. Scorpions are still active until nights cool off.
- Winter
- Scorpions slow down and hide in walls. Good time to seal gaps before spring.
Most Common Pest Calls In Arizona
Black Widow SpidersBlack widows turn up in garages, woodpiles, and under patio furniture across Arizona. The bite is rare but painful enough that most people call a technician the same day they spot one, especially with kids or pets around.
CockroachesAmerican cockroaches do well in Arizona’s warm climate and show up in kitchens, bathrooms, and drains year-round. One sighting usually means more are hiding behind appliances or under sinks.Common Pests In Arizona
Arizona’s heat changes which bugs show up and when. These are the ones that keep phones ringing in the Valley and in Tucson.

Arizona Pest Control FAQs
Can’t find your answer? Send us a message.
What’s the price of pest control in Arizona?
Angi’s national range for a one-time general treatment is $300 to $550. Scorpion sealing is priced separately and depends on the size of the house.
Many Valley homes go on monthly or quarterly plans during scorpion season. Ask what’s included before you sign.
How do I check my house for scorpions?
Walk around at night with a UV flashlight. Bark scorpions glow bright green-blue under it.
Check along baseboards, behind furniture and in the garage. Shake out shoes and towels before using them.
What should I do if a scorpion stings someone?
Wash the area and use a cold pack. Call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222. Arizona’s poison centers handle thousands of sting calls every year.
Kids and older adults can react more strongly, so call right away for them.
Should I get a termite plan in Arizona?
Yes, for most homes. Termites are active across the state, and they find their way up through slab cracks and block walls.
A bait system or soil treatment around the foundation is the usual option. Ask about the warranty length.
How do I keep roof rats out?
Pick ripe fruit and clean up fallen citrus. Trim palms and branches so they don’t touch the roof.
Seal roof vents and gaps at the eaves with hardware cloth. Trapping alone doesn’t stop new rats.
Are the treatments safe for kids and pets?
Yes, when a licensed tech applies them. Keep kids and pets off treated areas until dry, usually a couple of hours.
Most scorpion work is around the outside of the house and in the garage, so inside exposure is low.
Can I handle scorpions myself?
You can cut them down a lot. Seal gaps, move firewood and rocks away from the house and keep the yard tidy.
Bark scorpions are hard to kill with store sprays. Finding them inside every week? Get a pro.
