Where the Desert Meets Your Yard
Properties along natural desert edges are visited regularly by animals and insects moving in and out of washes. Scorpions shelter under rocks and debris, pack rats build nests in cholla and dense brush, and spiders take up residence in the crevices of stone walls.
Large windows, outdoor living spaces, and garages with frequent use all create opportunities for these pests to come inside, especially on warm summer nights.

Our Approach for Desert-Edge Homes
We treat the full perimeter with special attention to walls, gates, and view fences that face open desert. Garages, pool equipment, and outdoor kitchens get inspected each visit since they often serve as the first stop for pests coming in.
For homes with heavy scorpion activity, our Black Light Scorpion Service locates and removes active scorpions at night, when they are easiest to find.
We also look for gaps under view fences and gates, along with any spots where rock or debris has been piled against walls. Those small details often explain why one house sees far more scorpions than its neighbors.
Thorough, Never Rushed
Our technicians are paid by the day rather than per stop, so they can take the time a larger property needs. If pests return between scheduled services, re-treatments are free.
Bi-monthly service starts starting at $45 a month for homes up to 2,500 square feet, and larger homes are slightly more. Call 480-999-5302 and we can usually visit within a day.

What are pack rats and why are they a problem?
Pack rats, also called woodrats, build large debris nests in brush, garages, and engine compartments. They can chew wiring and stored items, so it is best to address them early.
How do I reduce scorpions near the desert?
Keep debris, firewood, and stored items away from walls, seal gaps under doors, and keep a regular barrier treatment in place. A black light visit helps measure and reduce current activity.
Do you serve all of DC Ranch?
Yes. We serve neighborhoods throughout DC Ranch and the rest of Scottsdale. Our team knows the conditions along the mountain edge well.
