Big Trees, Citrus, and Roof Rats
Mature trees and backyard citrus are wonderful in Tempe. They also give roof rats food, cover, and a highway straight to the roofline. Roof rats are excellent climbers, and once they find a gap near the eaves or a vent, an attic becomes a cozy place to nest.
Common signs include scratching in the ceiling at night, hollowed-out oranges still hanging on the tree, and droppings in the garage or along the top of the block wall. If any of that sounds familiar, it is worth a closer look.
We inspect rooflines, vents, and utility openings, set up rodent control where it makes sense, and tell you which gaps should be sealed so the problem does not repeat.
Older Homes, Different Entry Points
Homes that have been around a while tend to collect small openings. Door sweeps wear out, window screens loosen, and additions or remodels can leave seams where materials meet. Ants and roaches find these quickly, especially in summer.
Broadmor pest control from Green Magic covers those details. Our technicians are paid by the day instead of per stop, so they have time to check the places a rushed service would skip.

Trim, Pick, and Store
A little yard care goes a long way here. Keep branches trimmed back a few feet from the roof, pick up fallen fruit, and store pet food and birdseed in sealed containers. Those steps take away a lot of what draws rodents and insects in.

How do I know if I have roof rats?
Listen for scratching or scurrying in the attic at night, and check for chewed citrus or droppings along walls and in the garage. We can inspect and confirm what is going on.
Do you treat inside older homes too?
Yes. Our full service covers the exterior and the inside of the home when needed, with eco-friendly products that are safe for kids and pets once applied. Most of our work happens outside, which keeps pests from reaching your living space in the first place.
What does service cost in Broadmor?
Bi-monthly full service starts starting at $45 a month for homes up to 2,500 square feet. Larger homes are slightly more, and re-treatments between visits are free.
