Local pest control

Trusted pest control in Scottsdale, AZ

Cummings Termite & Pest provides residential and commercial pest control in Scottsdale, AZ, backed by more than 50 years of experience serving Scottsdale and the surrounding East Valley communities. Our office is just minutes away in Fountain Hills, so our certified technicians reach North Scottsdale, the McDowell Mountain corridor, and Old Town quickly — no long waits, no out-of-area dispatch.

Scottsdale sits at the edge of the Sonoran Desert, and that proximity shapes the pest pressures homeowners here face every season. North Scottsdale properties that back up to desert preserves see steady scorpion and rodent activity, especially as temperatures climb in spring and summer. Subterranean termites are a year-round concern in older Scottsdale neighborhoods, while bark scorpions make their way into newer construction along the 101 corridor as surrounding desert is disturbed by development.

We start every new customer with a free inspection and build a treatment plan around what we actually find on your property — not a one-size-fits-all package. Whether you are dealing with a scorpion infestation near Troon, rodent pressure along the McDowell Sonoran Preserve, or an ant problem in a Scottsdale Ranch home, Cummings offers safe, professional treatments tailored to your situation.

Local pest pressures

Common pests in Scottsdale, AZ

The pests our Scottsdale, AZ customers deal with most — and what to watch for.

  • Bark scorpions

    The most venomous scorpion in North America thrives in Scottsdale's desert-adjacent neighborhoods and can squeeze through gaps as thin as a credit card.

  • Subterranean termites

    Scottsdale's warm soil temperatures support active termite colonies year-round, putting both older Arcadia-area homes and newer North Scottsdale builds at risk.

  • Roof rats

    Mature citrus trees and desert landscaping common throughout Scottsdale provide ideal harborage for roof rats, which often enter attics undetected.

  • Black widow spiders

    Black widows seek out block-wall gaps, garage corners, and irrigation valve boxes — all features widespread across Scottsdale residential properties.

  • Argentine ants

    Irrigated Scottsdale lawns and landscaping create perfect moisture conditions for large Argentine ant colonies that trail indoors seeking food and water.

  • Pack rats (woodrats)

    North Scottsdale properties near desert preserves regularly see pack rats building nests in engine compartments, attics, and outdoor HVAC units.
