Common Pests in Scottsdale, AZ
Pest Control
More on pests in your area
Scottsdale, AZ, has an arid climate with particularly hot summers. This appeals to a number of pests, including southern and desert fire ants. These insects will typically nest in moist soils but may be drawn to homes in search of food during periods of harsh weather. They are aggressive stinging pests and infestations should be eliminated as soon as they are detected. Homeowners that suspect they have fire ants indoors are likely to find existing colonies in wall voids, kitchen pantries, and near trash bins.
While multiple cockroach species are present in Arizona, American cockroaches are the most commonly encountered. These pests often reside in or near sewers, drainage pipes, and basements because these settings provide them with moisture and shelter. Cockroaches have unique diets that permit them to eat almost anything. This usually leads the pests to scavenge in Scottsdale houses, where they spread diseases and contaminate food.
