Our Specialty Services In Phoenix, AZ

Absolutely! Exclusion work prevents future rodent invasions by sealing potential entry points. After our thorough inspection, we identify gaps, holes, or other vulnerabilities in your home's structure. Our team then takes measures to seal these points using high-quality materials designed to stand up to rodent attempts at re-entry. Sometimes, if there's a need for more extensive structural work, we might recommend bringing in a handyman. In essence, exclusion ensures your home remains fortified against any future unwanted furry guests.

Rodents are incredibly resourceful creatures. They can squeeze through minuscule gaps or holes in your home's foundation, walls, or roof. Over time, regular wear and tear on a home can create these tiny entry points. Our job during inspections is to not only treat the current infestation but also to identify and advise on these potential entry points to prevent future invasions.

In Phoenix, scorpion season runs from approximately March to October. And while these are the months that a group of scorpions may be most active, scorpions are a year-round problem in the area thanks to environmental conditions. These factors make proper scorpion control essential.

We treat all types of scorpions, but our most common treatments involve bark scorpions. Our technicians take their time helping you understand all about scorpions and our treatment solutions, so your worries about removing this pest are put to rest.

German roaches often find subtle ways into homes. Common pathways include items like grocery bags, cardboard boxes, or even used appliances you might bring into your space. Given their small size, they can easily slip into unnoticed areas, and before you know it, they establish a presence. Consistent preventive measures, like inspecting items before bringing them inside, can help in reducing such surprises.

After treating for American and oriental roaches, most homeowners notice a significant reduction in their numbers soon after our visit. The treatments we use for these roaches are designed to act quickly. However, when it comes to German cockroach pest control, a bit more patience is required. They may necessitate several treatments due to their resilient nature and habits. Our team works diligently to ensure thoroughness, making sure every corner is addressed to ensure a roach-free home.

You can reduce the spiders on your property by preventing the prey pests that attract them.

The bark scorpion is the only dangerous species in North America. A sting from one of these scorpions can cause swelling, numbness, and tingling. While most stings from these pests are not fatal, young children are more at risk of a severe reaction. It is always best to seek medical attention when dealing with scorpions, especially if you are unsure if you are allergic to their venom.

For the most part, crickets are nuisance pests because they don’t pose any health concerns. However, they feed on linen, wool, fur, cotton, and silk. But it would take a large number of crickets feeding to cause damage. In any case, their chirping might be enough to cause you to lose sleep at night.

The types of crickets found in our area include:

• House - Yellowish-brown with three dark stripes on the head, 1 inch long or less

• Tropical House - Yellowish tan with two black bands, 3/4 to 1-inch long

• Field - Primarily black, but can have some brown variations; 1/2 to 1-inch long

Conventional pesticides are ineffective against these pests, so getting rid of them is no easy task. To avoid an infestation of cockroaches, you should eliminate the conducive conditions that might attract them. These repairs should include fixing leaks and reducing moisture buildup, keeping food stored properly and cleaning up any food debris, repairing cracks and holes in the exterior of your house, and keeping your home organized and decluttered.
