Tatum Canyon Pest Control

Washes and Natural Corridors

Washes and drainage paths run through many Paradise Valley neighborhoods. They stay mostly dry, but they act as travel routes for scorpions, rodents, and other critters moving between open desert and backyards.

If your property borders a wash or natural area, that side of the home gets extra attention. We treat block walls, gates, and the rock and gravel at the edge of your landscaping to create a barrier between the desert and the house.

Monsoon storms send water rushing through these channels, flushing scorpions and insects out of their hiding places and toward higher, drier ground. A post-storm visit can be a smart move.

Free re-treatments between visits mean you are covered if that happens between your regular appointments.

Ants in Irrigated Areas

Many homes here mix desert plantings with irrigated lawns, flower beds, and citrus trees. Ant colonies thrive in that damp soil and send foragers looking for food and water, often straight to the kitchen in summer.

Tatum Canyon pest control includes treating those nesting areas and the trails ants use to reach your home. We also identify the type of ant so treatment fits the problem, since some species sting and others are more of a pantry nuisance.

Citrus trees deserve a note of their own. Fallen fruit feeds ants and rodents alike, so picking it up regularly helps.

Pets, Fleas, and Ticks

Dogs who roam the yard or walk nearby trails can pick up fleas and ticks. Wildlife passing through can bring them too. We treat shaded areas under shrubs, along fences, and in dog runs, using products that are safe for pets once applied.

Pairing yard treatment with your vet's preventive care is the most effective way to protect your pets and your home.

Our technicians are paid by the day, not per stop, which leaves time to treat the dog run, side yards, and fence lines carefully instead of skipping them.
