Arizona’s climate creates ideal conditions for pests and weeds year-round. Our services target everything commonly found on Prescott properties:

Scorpion Control & Removal
The Arizona bark scorpion is the most venomous scorpion in North America and a year-round threat in Prescott. Our scorpion control program includes:

• Blacklight (UV) property inspections to identify scorpion activity
• Targeted treatments around your perimeter, foundation, and harborage areas
• Removal of insect prey that draws scorpions onto your property
• Exclusion recommendations to reduce entry points

Ant Control & Extermination
From carpenter ants that damage wood structures to fire ants with painful stings, Prescott has several ant species that invade properties. Our ant control services cover:

• Carpenter Ants: Protect your home’s structure from these wood-damaging pests
• Fire Ants: Eliminate painful stinging ants from your yard
• Argentine Ants: Control persistent colonies that invade kitchens and bathrooms
• Pavement Ants: Remove unsightly mounds from driveways and sidewalks

Spider Control & Removal
Prescott is home to both venomous and non-venomous spiders. Our spider control services include web removal and interior and exterior treatments targeting black widows, wolf spiders, house spiders, and more.

Rodent Control
From mice and pack rats to gophers destroying your landscape, our rodent control program goes beyond simple trapping. We identify entry points, implement exclusion measures, and provide ongoing monitoring.

Weed Control
Weeds are a pest too. They compete with desirable plants for water and nutrients, crack pavement, spread rapidly, and create fire hazards when dry. Our pre-emergent and post-emergent weed control services cover residential lawns, rock yards, commercial parking lots, and everything in between. Pest and weed control on the same visit — one less call to make.

Additional Pest Control Services
We also provide expert treatment for:

• Cockroaches: German, American, and Oriental cockroach control
• Fleas & Ticks: Protect your family and pets from these disease-carrying pests
• Wasps & Bees: Professional nest removal and stinging insect control
• Mosquitoes: Reduce mosquito populations in your yard
• Crickets & Beetles: Control seasonal invaders, including palo verde beetles

Step 1: Thorough Property Inspection
Every effective program starts with understanding the problem. Our certified technicians conduct a comprehensive inspection examining interior and exterior areas where pests and weeds are active, entry points, conducive conditions, and the severity of the infestation or growth.

Step 2: Customized Treatment Plan
Based on our inspection findings, we develop a targeted strategy tailored to your specific property. We explain our recommended approach, answer your questions, and confirm the plan before any work begins.

Step 3: Professional Application
Our technicians implement the treatment plan using professional-grade products and proven application methods. We focus treatments on where pests live, breed, and travel, and where weeds are most active, with care taken around family and pet areas.

Step 4: Ongoing Monitoring & Prevention
Pest and weed control requires consistent attention. We provide regular follow-up visits to confirm treatments are working, make adjustments as needed, and prevent new problems before they start.

Spring (March to May)
Increased ant activity, emerging spiders, and the first wave of summer annual weeds. Spring is the ideal time for preventative treatments and pre-emergent weed applications before populations explode.

Summer (June to August)
Peak season for scorpions, which become highly active during hot nights. Monsoon rains in July and August drive pests indoors and trigger weed growth across properties.

Fall (September to November)
Cooler temperatures send pests searching for warmth indoors. Crickets, spiders, and rodents become more problematic. Fall pre-emergent applications stop cool-season weeds before winter.

Winter (December to February)
Reduced outdoor pest activity, but rodents seek indoor shelter and warmth. Focus on interior treatments and sealing entry points to prevent spring infestations.
