Two Environments in One Neighborhood
On one side, irrigated fairways and landscaped common areas keep soil moist and full of insects. On the other, natural desert slopes and washes shelter scorpions, spiders, and rodents.
Homes between the two can see ants and crickets from the turf, and scorpions and packrats from the hills. That combination calls for a treatment plan that covers more than just the foundation.
Mature trees, community parks, and backyard pools add even more variety. A single street can include homes that back to turf, homes that back to desert, and homes that face a wash, and each one needs a slightly different focus.
Golf Course Edges and Crickets
Watered turf supports large cricket populations. On warm nights, they move toward lights and homes, and scorpions follow close behind.
Reducing crickets is one of the most effective ways to bring scorpion numbers down. We treat the edges of your property facing the course and the areas where crickets gather.
- Course-facing perimeter and view fence treatment
- Cricket reduction near lights and doors
- Ant treatment along turf edges
- Scorpion work along rock borders next to the fairway
Why The Foothills Homeowners Choose Green Magic
We have been helping homes across the Valley since 2016, and we are BBB accredited. Our technicians are paid by the day, so they can give each home a thorough visit instead of a rushed spray.
Plans start starting at $45 a month for homes up to 2,500 square feet on a bi-monthly schedule, with free re-treatments between visits.
If you have not had pest service in a while, the first visit is a good reset. Your technician will treat active problem areas, remove webs, and set a baseline for the visits that follow.

Do homes on the golf course need different pest control?
They often see more crickets and ants from the irrigated turf. We adjust treatment to focus on the course-facing side of the property. Our technicians look at which side faces turf and which faces desert before treating.
How do I keep crickets away from my doors?
Switch to yellow bulbs, keep doors sealed, and reduce clutter near entryways. Regular treatment along the perimeter also helps cut their numbers. Moving firewood and stored items away from walls also takes away hiding places.
Can I schedule service quickly?
Yes. We aim for same or next-day appointments. Reach our office at 480-999-5302 to book.
