Where the city ends and the open desert begins, the bugs follow the path of least resistance — right into your house. Tarzie Pest Control is an owner-operated, San Tan Valley-based team with 18+ years of Arizona experience servicing Apache Junction homes for scorpions, ants, spiders, crickets, and rodents.
Apache Junction sits right where the East Valley meets the Superstition Wilderness — open desert, washes, and rocky foothills wrapping the city on three sides. That geography is the reason a treatment that works fine in central Mesa or Gilbert isn’t always enough out here: scorpions, pack rats, and roof rats migrate in from the desert year-round, not just during the monsoon. We service Apache Junction with a perimeter approach that accounts for rock-yard harborage, block-wall gaps, and the brush line along the desert edge.
Scorpions are the call we get most often in Apache Junction — the rock yards and dry-stack walls that look great in a desert landscape are also where bark scorpions live. General pest and rodent service round out the program for homes that back to washes or open state land.
The Apache Junction specialty. Perimeter treatment, block-wall and weep-screed inspection, and pet-and-kid-friendly chemicals. We walk the rock yards with a UV light so you can see what we’re treating for.
