Pest Control in Fountain Hills, AZ
Scorpion, pack rat, spider and bee control for Fountain Hills homes on hillsides, washes and desert lots below the McDowell Mountains.
Fountain Hills Pest Control for Hillside and Desert-Edge Homes
Fountain Hills pest control is mostly desert-edge pest control. The town is built into the hills below the McDowell Mountains, with natural washes running between streets and many lots left in native desert. That puts bark scorpions, pack rats, black widows and crickets right up against the house.
Boulders, rock walls and landscape rock hold heat and shelter scorpions, and the steep lots leave gaps under doors and around stem walls. Every visit starts with an inspection of the yard, the rock and block walls and the entry points, then a treatment matched to what we find.

Scorpion Control in Fountain Hills, AZ
Homes that back onto a wash or open desert see the most scorpions, especially in the warm months. A Fountain Hills scorpion control treatment covers the perimeter, rock and block walls, landscaping and entry points, and we point out the door sweeps, weep screed gaps and pipe openings worth sealing. Crickets and other insects are scorpion food, so treating them is part of the job. Big scorpions under desert rocks are often giant hairy scorpions rather than bark scorpions; see the types of scorpions in Arizona.
Pack Rat, Spider and Bee Control in Fountain Hills
Pack rats nest under prickly pear, boulders and sheds and can chew wiring in garages and parked cars; rodent control means removing the nest, closing the spot they use, and trapping or setting locked bait stations. Black widows collect in garages, patio furniture and block-wall gaps; see Arizona spiders to tell them from wolf and camel spiders. Bees move into rock crevices, water meter boxes and eaves; bee removal is quoted per job.

Fountain Hills Pest Control Questions
Why does Fountain Hills have so many scorpions?
Most Fountain Hills homes sit on hillsides, washes and natural desert lots, which is exactly where bark scorpions live. Rock outcrops, boulders and landscape rock give them shelter right up to the foundation, so homes on the desert edge need a perimeter treatment plus sealed gaps at doors and weep screeds.
What are the stick piles under my shrubs and boulders?
Those are usually pack rat nests. Pack rats build them from sticks, cactus pieces and debris, often under prickly pear, boulders or sheds, and they can chew wiring in parked cars and garages. Removing the nest and closing off the spot they use helps keep them from rebuilding.
How much does pest control cost in Fountain Hills?
$149 for a diagnostic visit with treatment, or $50/month on a plan with treatment every 60 days and free callbacks. Fountain Hills homes are served by a licensed, insured Arizona partner at these posted prices.
Do you remove bees in Fountain Hills?
Yes. Bee removal is quoted per job because it depends on where the hive is: a block wall, a water meter box, an eave or a rock crevice. Stay back from the entrance and send your address and where you see the bees through the form.
