Local pest control
Trusted pest control in Mesa, AZ
Cummings Termite & Pest provides residential and commercial pest control throughout Mesa, AZ, backed by more than 50 years of experience serving the East Valley. From the desert-edge neighborhoods near the Usery Mountain corridor to established communities closer to downtown, our certified technicians know the specific pest pressures Mesa homeowners and businesses face every season.
Mesa's mix of older subdivisions, newer master-planned developments, and open desert creates ideal conditions for subterranean termites, roof rats, bark scorpions, and several species of ants. High summer heat pushes many of these pests to seek cooler shelter inside structures, and the city's proximity to undeveloped desert land means activity often spikes after monsoon rains. A tailored treatment plan built around your property is the most reliable way to stay ahead of infestations.
Our team serves Mesa from our Fountain Hills base, covering the full East Valley including Scottsdale, Gilbert, Chandler, and Tempe. Every service begins with a free inspection so we can assess what is actually present on your property before recommending a course of action. There are no one-size-fits-all programs here — every plan is customized to your home, lot, and pest history.

Local pest pressures
Common pests in Mesa, AZ
The pests our Mesa, AZ customers deal with most — and what to watch for.
Subterranean termites
The most destructive pest in Mesa; mud tubes along foundations and hollow-sounding wood are the first signs of an active colony.
Bark scorpions
Arizona's only medically significant scorpion is common in desert-edge Mesa neighborhoods and can squeeze through gaps as thin as a credit card.
Roof rats
Citrus trees throughout Mesa provide food and nesting sites, making roof rats a persistent problem in both older and newer parts of the city.
Harvester and fire ants
Multiple ant species thrive in Mesa's sandy soils and warm climate, with fire ant colonies capable of spreading rapidly across landscaped yards.
American and German cockroaches
American cockroaches favor sewer lines and exterior walls while German cockroaches concentrate in kitchens and bathrooms, requiring different treatment approaches.
Black widows
Commonly found in garages, utility boxes, and undisturbed storage areas throughout Mesa, particularly during warmer months.

Yes, particularly in areas bordering the Usery Mountain Regional Park and other undisturbed desert land. Bark scorpions are active year-round in Arizona's climate and are skilled climbers, often found on walls and ceilings indoors.
Roof rats are skilled climbers and typically enter homes through rooflines, utility lines, and tree branches that overhang structures. We recommend a professional inspection to locate entry points and active harborage areas before any treatment begins.
