Older Avondale blocks with irrigation and mature trees hold roach and rodent populations that need consistent treatment.
Avondale sits in the Southwest Valley in Maricopa County, west of downtown Phoenix. It began as a settlement near the Agua Fria River that Billy Moore named Coldwater; a post office opened in 1896 and later took the name of a nearby ranch. Avondale incorporated in 1946 and became a city in 1959. It borders Goodyear to the west, Litchfield Park to the north, and Phoenix and Tolleson to the east, with Interstate 10 crossing the north of the city and the Gila River crossing the south.
Avondale neighborhoods
Old Town, the river corridors and the newer neighborhoods of Avondale
Old Town along Western Avenue
Old Town Avondale runs along Western Avenue, south of the freeway, with mature trees, older block walls and narrow lots. Worn door sweeps and gaps around old pipes let roaches in, and the Turkestan cockroach, which University of Arizona Extension says is now common across the Phoenix area, lives outdoors in meter boxes and hollow block walls close to the house.
How we handle roachesThe Agua Fria and Gila riverbeds
The Agua Fria River runs south through Avondale and joins the Gila River, which crosses the southern part of the city. In the south of the city, Monument Hill at 115th Avenue and Baseline Road holds the initial survey point of the Gila and Salt River Meridian. The dry riverbeds hold brush and debris where rodents, spiders and scorpions live, and homes close to the river corridors meet them first. Keeping firewood, lumber and debris away from walls takes away cover close to the house.
How we handle rodentsGarden Lakes, Rancho Santa Fe and Cashion
Newer neighborhoods such as Garden Lakes and Rancho Santa Fe have irrigated yards and common areas, and moist ground beside a foundation draws earwigs and crickets. Cashion, a former community now inside Avondale, sits just north of where the Salt and Gila rivers meet. Finding earwigs indoors usually points at a leak or overwatered beds against the house, and ponds or water features that are not circulating can breed mosquitoes.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Old Town, Garden Lakes, Rancho Santa Fe, Cashion and the rest of Avondale all fall inside the West Valley area we cover. A technician visits at an agreed time, and looking over the property and quoting the work are free.
Many of the roaches seen in Valley homes are outdoor species, so they return from the yard after an indoor-only treatment. The Turkestan cockroach lives in water meter boxes, irrigation valve boxes and hollow block walls. Treating those outside spots, along with sealing door sweeps and pipe gaps, is what keeps the numbers down.
Homes beside the river corridor can see more rodents, spiders and scorpions, because brush and debris in the riverbed give them cover close to the yards. Closing gaps under garage doors and around pipes and clearing debris from the walls does more than spraying alone.
The frequency of pest control services depends on the type of pest and the severity of the infestation. Generally, quarterly treatments are recommended for preventive measures, but more frequent treatments may be necessary for severe infestations.
Not usually for an exterior visit. Interior work needs access, so we agree a time window and the technician confirms before arriving. Service is by appointment.
Before our technician arrives, please ensure that all food is stored away, and access points to infested areas are clear. Specific preparation steps will be provided based on the type of pest being treated.
A typical pest control treatment can take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours, depending on the size of the property and the severity of the infestation.
Pests can return because pressure changes with weather, moisture and entry conditions. Every service. Guaranteed for 30 days. The guarantee applies to the service provided, while regular maintenance and preventive measures reduce the likelihood of re-infestation.
