How Irrigation Affects Pests
Drip lines and sprinklers create pockets of moist soil along foundations and planting beds. Ants build colonies there, crickets lay eggs there, and termites use that damp soil to travel toward wood.
Leaking valves or emitters that soak one spot can make things worse. Checking your irrigation regularly is one of the best ways to reduce pest pressure.
Crickets are especially drawn to damp beds and porch lights, and their presence often brings scorpions and spiders close behind.
Termite colonies may sit near irrigated beds for a long time before showing signs. An inspection is the surest way to know.
A Targeted Treatment Plan
Your technician checks irrigation boxes, beds, and foundation edges, then treats where pests are living and entering. Inside, we treat only where activity shows up.
For termites, we look for mud tubes on stem walls and around the garage and recommend treatment if we find activity.
Our products are eco-friendly and safe for kids and pets once applied, so your yard can be back in use quickly.
We also treat garage edges and door thresholds, since ants and crickets often come in there first.

Should I adjust my sprinklers to help with pests?
Yes. Aim emitters away from the foundation and fix leaks quickly. Drier soil next to the slab makes it harder for ants and termites to thrive. Your technician can point out any irrigation problems they notice.
Do crickets damage anything?
They can chew fabric and paper, but the bigger issue is that they attract scorpions and spiders. Controlling crickets helps control those predators. Warm toned porch bulbs also help.
How fast can you come out?
We typically schedule visits the same day or the day after you call. Just call 480-999-5302.
