Pets and the Hillside
Wild animals that roam desert slopes can carry fleas and ticks and leave them behind near patios, yards, and shaded resting spots. Dogs who spend time outside can bring them indoors.
We treat outdoor areas where pets rest and play, and we can treat indoors if fleas have already moved in. Our pet friendly products are safe for your animals once dry.
Fleas can build up quickly in warm weather. If your pets are scratching more than usual or you spot tiny dark insects on their bedding, it is time to treat both the yard and the home.
Scorpion Pressure on Steep Lots
Cut slopes, exposed rock, and retaining walls create plenty of shelter for bark scorpions. On homes like these, the side facing the hill usually needs the most attention.
Regular perimeter service, combined with our Black Light Scorpion Service when sightings are frequent, gives steady protection.
We also look closely at garages and pool equipment areas tucked into the slope. These spots are often dark, rarely disturbed, and very close to natural ground, which makes them a favorite hiding place.
Steep driveways and multi level patios can also leave gaps where hardscape meets the house. Those seams are worth sealing, and we will point them out so you or your contractor can close them. Fewer gaps mean fewer places for scorpions, spiders, and crickets to slip indoors during the warm months.
Keeping Wildlife at a Distance
If animals are digging near foundations or nesting under decks, our wildlife service focuses on moving them away from the home and reducing the attractants that brought them there.
Simple changes help here too. Storing pet food in sealed containers, closing gaps under decks, and keeping trash secure all make the property less inviting to animals and the pests they carry.

Can my dog get ticks in Paradise Valley?
Yes. Ticks can be carried in by wildlife and picked up by pets outdoors. We treat yard areas where they are likely to be. Checking pets after time outdoors and keeping grass and ground cover trimmed near play areas also helps.
Is Highcliff Drive pest control safe for pets?
We use pet friendly, eco-friendly products. Once applications are dry, it is safe for pets and kids to return.
Do you treat inside the home too?
Yes, when needed. Most work is exterior, but we treat inside for fleas, ants, cockroaches, and other pests that make it indoors.
