Why Block Walls Matter
The hollow cores and cracks in block walls stay cool even on hot days. Bark scorpions use them for shelter and as highways between yards.
Landscape rock does the same job on a smaller scale. Underneath, it stays shaded and slightly damp, especially near drip lines.
Pool equipment pads, irrigation control boxes, and stacked pavers also hold cool, shaded air. We check each of these during service, because they are some of the most common places we find scorpions resting.
Monsoon storms tend to flush scorpions out of these spots, which is why many homes see a jump in activity during late summer.
- Wall caps and base cracks
- Rock beds near drip irrigation
- Gaps under gates and doors
Day and Night Scorpion Control
Our regular service treats wall bases, rock beds, and entry points to reduce the number of scorpions around your home.
For homes with ongoing activity, our Black Light Scorpion Service adds a nighttime search. Scorpions glow under UV light, so our technicians can find and remove them directly.
We will never rush a nighttime visit. Our technicians are paid by the day, so they can search slowly and carefully.
Spiders Too
Black widows and other spiders like the same quiet corners. We sweep webs and treat common harborage areas during every visit.
Keep stored items off the ground in the garage, and pull rock back a few inches from the stucco where you can. Fewer hiding spots near the walls means fewer spiders inside the home.
Our products are pet friendly and eco-friendly, so you can enjoy the yard once everything has dried.

How many scorpions is too many?
Seeing one now and then outside is normal in Goodyear. If you are finding them inside or seeing several a week, it is time for treatment. We can start with a full treatment and adjust from there based on what we find.
Do I need the black light service every time?
Not usually. Many homeowners add it when activity is high, often during warm months, and rely on regular service the rest of the year. Your technician can recommend a schedule that fits your yard.
What does El Cidro pest control cost?
Full bi-monthly coverage starts starting at $45 per month for a home under 2,500 square feet, and larger homes cost slightly more.
