Tempe, AZ Pest Control
Pest control for Tempe's urban density, ASU housing and lakefront properties.
From apartments near ASU to older homes around Papago Park and Tempe Town Lake, Tempe's mix of density and standing water brings a different pest mix than the rest of the East Valley.
Local Coverage
What to watch for around your Tempe property
Tempe's dense, urban layout around ASU and Tempe Town Lake means pest pressure travels differently here — shared walls, standing water and mature older neighborhoods each bring their own set of problems.
If you're near Tempe Town Lake or a canal, keep an eye on standing water for mosquitoes, check shared walls and vents in apartments for roach activity, and inspect garages or window wells in older homes for spiders.
Pests We See Most
What Tempe residents are dealing with
Cockroaches
Tempe's dense apartment and student housing near ASU sees a steady flow of German and American roaches moving between units and shared walls.
Ants
Irrigated landscaping around Tempe Town Lake and the many multifamily properties nearby keep odorous house ants and pavement ants active year-round.
Spiders
Older Tempe homes near Papago Park and the Maple-Ash neighborhood see black widows and wolf spiders in garages, sheds and window wells.
Mice and rats
Urban density and mature landscaping close to downtown Tempe and the ASU campus give rodents easy access between properties, especially in fall and winter.
Mosquitoes
Standing water around Tempe Town Lake and canal-adjacent parks makes mosquito pressure noticeably higher here than in drier East Valley towns.
Termites
Older wood-frame construction throughout central Tempe combined with year-round irrigation is a common setup for subterranean termite activity.
