Florence’s rural setting and surrounding farmland bring rodents, crickets and scorpions close to homes.
Florence is a town in Pinal County and the county seat, southeast of the Phoenix metro. Levi Ruggles founded it in 1866 on the south bank of the Gila River, and the town describes itself as one of the oldest towns in Arizona. Its downtown is the Florence Townsite Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1982, with the 1891 Pinal County Courthouse and McFarland State Historic Park, an 1878 adobe building. State Routes 79 and 287 and Hunt Highway are its main corridors, and 26,785 people lived in town at the 2020 census.
Florence
Historic Florence, the Gila River and the newer neighborhoods
The historic downtown
Many downtown buildings are old adobe, brick and wood construction, and older walls, crawl spaces and trim have more gaps than modern stucco. Roaches, spiders and rodents use those gaps. Repairs on historic buildings need care, so sealing and treatment are planned around what each building allows, and the inspection maps the entry points first.
How we handle roachesThe Gila River corridor
The Gila River runs through historic Florence and is dry for much of the year, lined with brush and trees. Rodents, scorpions and spiders live in that cover, and after summer storms, water left in the riverbed and in low spots nearby can breed mosquitoes within about a week. Homes near the river corridor see more of the wildlife that moves along it.
How we handle mosquitoesPoston Butte and the newer neighborhoods
The town’s Poston Butte Preserve protects the butte that holds the tomb of Charles D. Poston, known as the Father of Arizona. Newer neighborhoods such as Merrill Ranch have joined the town, and wherever new streets are graded, crickets, ants and scorpions move toward the first houses they reach. A steady cricket supply also keeps scorpions around, so treating the yard and the perimeter together matters here.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Our Pinal County coverage includes Florence, from the historic downtown to Merrill Ranch. We schedule an appointment, inspect without charge and quote before any work.
Yes. Older buildings usually have more entry points, such as gaps around wooden frames, vents and foundations, so the inspection maps those first. The treatment plan then fits the building, with sealing where it is allowed and treatment aimed at the places pests are using.
They can. The brush along the river shelters rodents, scorpions and spiders, and standing water after storms breeds mosquitoes. Keeping debris and stored items away from walls, emptying containers after rain and treating the yard as well as the house keep more of that activity outside.
Land south of the Gila River became part of the United States through the Gadsden Purchase, and the town points visitors to desert landmarks nearby such as Box Canyon, Martinez Canyon and the Coke Ovens. That open country is scorpion, spider and rodent habitat, so homes on the edges of town do better with the fence line and yard treated and with door sweeps and garage seals that close fully.
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.
