Insects and Spiders

Ants
Dirty or filthy houses do not attract bed bugs. Because they feed off of humans and live close to their host, bed bugs do not spend time eating other insects or fallen crumbs like common pests such as ants and spiders. However, clutter is a major issue when it comes to bed bugs. Once bed bugs find their way into your home and claim you as their host, hiding places such as clutter are perfect. Other common hiding places for bed bugs within homes are behind hanging picture frames, in the corners and tight spaces around your box spring, behind electrical outlet plates, in the crevices of couches and fabric furniture, clutter in dresser drawers, under beds, and in closets for example.
Spiders
Arizona is full of beautiful scenic landscapes and is home to many varieties of wildlife species making it a wonderful place to call home or run a business. Part of this wildlife includes many varieties of spiders. Most bring with them a general feeling of unease and certain species can even be dangerous to humans and pets. Having a spider control plan from a professional pest control provider, like SOS Extermination, can help remove and protect your property from spiders.
Termites
Termites fulfill an important role in our ecological system by speeding up the natural process of deterioration and help turn the dead wood into new soil. Unfortunately, termites don’t know the difference between a stump in your yard and the wood in your home. Termites live in social colonies, typically found in the soil. While they are generally found foraging underground for fallen wood, or plant debris, they can also enter homes, causing extensive damage if left untreated. The most common types of termites in the Phoenix, AZ area are subterranean termites and drywood termites.
Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are small, rust colored bugs that feed off of hosts such as humans. As adults, they are just under ¼ inch long, flat, and oval-shaped. They feed on blood from a host such as humans with a lifespan that can exceed one year.
Fleas
Marks could be from another pest, such as fleas. Flea bites usually appear as a red mark with a “halo” shape around the center in clumps or in a straight line. Ankles, legs and armpits are common spots for flea bites.
Cockroaches
Arizona bark scorpions get into homes through small cracks and crevices around the exterior of your home as well as broken and torn screening and windows. Be sure to seal off visible openings and repair or replace old dryer vents, window screening, and broken windows or doors — Trim vegetation including tree branches that are touching your home. Scorpions are known to climb trees and can use branches as natural bridges to crawl onto your house and into your home. Try reducing the moisture in your home by using a dehumidifier. Not only will this deter scorpions, but it can also prevent common house pests such as cockroaches. If you can’t get the scorpion issue at your home under control, give SOS Exterminating a call.
Silverfish
Bees
Nicknamed the “killer bee,” Africanized bees are a type of honey bee that is a common nuisance for Arizona homeowners. They were first introduced to the United States in 1990 when the killer bees escaped from a testing facility in Brazil. Since they were first spotted in Texas once they reached North America, Africanized bees have spread across the United States and continued to colonize in our area. Their populations in Arizona are slowly expanding. Just because you don’t see them this year doesn’t mean you won’t see them next year. Although they are beneficial honey bees that pollinate and add to the overall well being of the enviornment, their presence can cause panic and anxiety for those who suffer from nesting activity or are allergic to wasp and bee stings.
Wasps
Ticks
You’ve probably heard of DEET as an active ingredient in pest repellent products that are applied directly to your skin or clothing. But what is it really? DEET is a repellent that was developed by the U.S. Army in 1946 for the protection of soldiers in insect-infested areas and became approved for use by the general public in 1957. It’s primarily used in products that are applied directly to the skin or on clothing to repel mosquitoes and ticks in the form of lotions, sprays, roll-ons, and bracelets.
Crickets
Scorpions can squeeze through incredibly small holes, less than ¼ inch. They are excellent climbers and use this skill to scale walls and ceilings. Arizona bark scorpions are nocturnal, hunting for crickets, spiders, cockroaches, other small or medium sized insects, and even other scorpions. Once they enter your home, they seek out dark areas with higher levels of moisture. This is why you’ll find a scorpion hiding out in your bathtub or basement. Because they prefer to be hidden in the dark, you might not know that scorpions are living in your home until you step on one. Despite their small stature, Arizona bark scorpions pack a powerful punch, causing extreme pain to its victim.
Earwigs
Mosquitoes
Mosquitoes are flying pests that come into contact with humans in the Phoenix, AZ area, primarily April-October. They are highly dangerous pests due to their resistance against deadly and devastating diseases such as West Nile Virus. As the primary carriers of the West Nile Virus, the likelihood of contracting the virus from a mosquito bite is high in Maricopa County and the surrounding areas. Is there really a way to prevent mosquitoes from living and breeding on your property? The pest management professionals at SOS Exterminating have the answers.
Centipedes
Millipedes
Beetles
Scorpions
Arizona Bark Scorpions are the most common type of scorpion in the East Valley and, subsequently, the most bothersome for homeowners and business owners. They are yellow and brown with horizontal bands across their body. These terrifying creatures are an average of 3 inches long. They have two extended claws, six legs, and one venomous stinger. Arizona bark scorpions are native to Arizona, California, New Mexico, and parts of Mexico. They are the most poisonous scorpion in the state, sending tons of humans to the hospital every year. When it comes to pest control, scorpions are an unfortunate reality. If you aren’t prepared for possible scorpion infestations, your home may be vulnerable.
Sow Bugs

Snakes
Never try to handle pocket gophers or attempt to get rid of them on your own. As previously mentioned, you can easily get bitten when directly handling them. Always call SOS Exterminating to handle your pocket gopher issues professionally. Aside from human intervention, pocket gophers have several natural predators that are native to the Phoenix, AZ area. Snakes, birds, badgers, foxes, and coyotes are all predators to pocket gophers.
Coyotes
Badgers

Birds
While there are many DIY or over-the-counter products for bird control, none are as safe and effective as trusting the professionals at SOS Exterminating to help you protect your property from birds. Netting, liquid, and laser repellants can be difficult to correctly set up on your own.
Pigeons
Bird droppings are acidic and can rapidly destroy building facades.Birds, especially pigeons, also have the potential to spread pathogens that can cause various diseases. All that is on top of the fact that no business wants their clients, patients, and customers exposed to unsightly droppings, because it doesn’t portray a professional appearance for the business.

Rodents
Rodents seek out food, water, and shelter to live. When they find all of these elements in your home, they’ll stay. Food sources can range from fallen crumbs to cereal in cardboard boxes.
Mice
Fire hazards and electrical failure can also be an issue as mice and rats chew on the electrical wiring inside walls or attics.
Rats
Rodents like rats and mice seek shelter in the colder months when food and water supplies outdoor become scarce. They look for new sources of food, water, and protection from predators. This can become problematic when they build a home inside or around your property.
Squirrels
Both pocket gophers and ground squirrels are big concerns for local Phoenix area residents. If you see mounds pop up around your property, you could be wondering if you see evidence of pocket gophers or ground squirrels. The best way to differentiate the two is by examining their mounds. Pocket gophers plug their holes with loose soil whereas ground squirrels leave their mounds open, with leftover dirt from initial excavation surrounding the exterior of the hole.
Gophers
Their tunneling activity is often considered beneficial to the environment. Because they move large amounts of soil underground, gophers help mix in beneficial elements into the otherwise undisturbed land, improving soil fertility. Unfortunately, pocket gophers can quickly become a massive pest issue for homeowners that suffer from destructive tunneling on their property.
Chipmunks
You may catch a glimpse of a ground squirrel above land contrary to pocket gophers that live primarily within their underground tunnels. Ground squirrels look like smaller prairie dogs or chipmunks, quickly scurrying around in the early morning and late afternoons primarily. To learn more about ground squirrels, click here.
