Goodyear’s expansion into former farmland brings field rodents, crickets and ants along with it.

Goodyear is a Maricopa County city in the Southwest Valley, about 17 miles west of downtown Phoenix. It became a town in 1946 and a city in 1985, and it grew on cotton farmland. Its limits now run about five miles north of Interstate 10 to the Glendale border and south across the Gila River to the Sierra Estrella, with Avondale, Litchfield Park and Tolleson on one side and Buckeye on the other. Former farmland, river bottoms and mountain desert all fall inside the city, and each brings different pests.

Goodyear, north to south

From Palm Valley to the Estrella Mountains

Estrella and the mountain park

Estrella, the largest community in Goodyear at about 20,000 acres, lies near the Sierra Estrella on the city’s south side. Next to it, Estrella Mountain Regional Park covers 19,840 acres and was the first park in the Maricopa County system when it opened in 1954. Homes on that side of the city back onto steep, rocky desert. Bark scorpions shelter in the rock by day and hunt at night, and University of Arizona Extension advises managing them through the habitat around a home, because spraying alone does not control them.

How we handle bark scorpions

Where the Agua Fria meets the Gila

The Gila River passes through Goodyear, and the Agua Fria River joins it near Estrella Mountain Regional Park. Both are wide channels lined with brush and dry for much of the year. After monsoon storms, water pools in low ground near them and in yards across the city, and mosquitoes breed in any of it that stands for about a week. Rodents also use the brushy river corridors to move between fields and neighborhoods.

Palm Valley and the Loop 303 corridor

North of the freeway lies Palm Valley, about 9,000 acres, along with neighborhoods such as PebbleCreek, Canyon Trails and Centerra. Loop 303 begins in Goodyear at Van Buren Street and continues south as Cotton Lane. As the city’s remaining fields give way to houses, the field mice and crickets that lived in them look for shelter in garages and block walls, and a yard full of crickets is a food supply for scorpions.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

We do. Our West Valley coverage takes in all of Goodyear, from Estrella on the south side to Palm Valley, PebbleCreek and Canyon Trails north of Interstate 10. Service is by appointment, and the inspection and estimate are both free.

They are built beside the rocky desert bark scorpions live in. Scorpions cross the back wall at night looking for insects and shelter, then hide in block walls, rock borders and valve boxes. Moving debris and rock piles off the walls, sealing gaps at doors and weep screeds, and treating the fence line and yard keeps more of them outside.

Often, yes. Mosquito numbers usually rise a week or two after a storm, once rainwater has sat in containers and low spots long enough to breed a generation. Tip out anything holding water, clear roof drains, and keep pool and fountain pumps running, since anything that holds water for a week can produce mosquitoes.

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.
