Palm Trees: Beautiful, and Busy
Palm trees are iconic in Tempe, but untrimmed palms are a favorite hiding spot for pests. The dead fronds, often called skirts, give roof rats a place to nest, and bark scorpions are known to hide in palm fronds and bark as well.
Roof rats can travel from palms and other tall trees across power lines and branches to reach a roof. Once there, gaps near vents or eaves lead into the attic.
Mature citrus and shade trees add to the attraction. Fallen fruit feeds rodents, and thick canopies give them cover as they travel across yards.
Tempe Royal Palms Pest Control, Top to Bottom
We look at pests from the roofline down. That means checking for rodent activity near the roof and vents, treating eaves for spiders and scorpions, and working the foundation, doors, and garage for ants, roaches, and crickets.
Our technicians are paid by the day, so they take the time to look up, not just down.
Tempe Royal Palms pest control from Green Magic is designed to protect the house without giving up the trees that make the neighborhood special.
- Rodent inspection near rooflines
- Scorpion treatment at eaves and walls
- Ant and roach perimeter service

Keep Trees From Becoming Bridges
Keep palms trimmed and remove dead fronds regularly. Cut branches back from the roof, and pick up fallen fruit from citrus trees. These steps reduce the food and shelter rodents and scorpions rely on.
Bi-monthly service starts starting at $45 a month for homes up to 2,500 square feet, and if pests come back between visits, so do we, free of charge. Our products are eco-friendly and pet friendly.

Do scorpions live in palm trees?
Bark scorpions can hide in palm fronds and bark. Keeping palms trimmed and treating the base of trees and nearby walls helps reduce them. Our Black Light Scorpion Service can also find scorpions hiding around trees and walls at night.
Can roof rats get into my attic from trees?
Yes. Roof rats are strong climbers and often use trees and utility lines to reach rooftops. We inspect for entry points and set up control. We will point out openings near the roof that should be sealed.
How quickly can you come out?
Usually the same day or the next. Give us a call at 480-999-5302 and we will find a time.
