Maricopa is surrounded by open desert and farmland, which means scorpions, rodents and ants push into homes from every direction.
The City of Maricopa is in Pinal County, south of the Phoenix metro, and is separate from Maricopa County to the north. It incorporated on October 15, 2003, as Arizona’s 88th city, and had 58,125 residents at the 2020 census. Its history runs from Maricopa Wells to a railroad junction to a farm town where cotton was the main crop in the 1950s and 1960s. The Gila River Indian Community borders it to the north, the Ak-Chin Indian Community lies next to it, and State Route 347 runs through the city as John Wayne Parkway.
The City of Maricopa
Farm history and planned neighborhoods in the City of Maricopa
Neighborhoods in a former farm town
Subdivisions such as Rancho El Dorado, Province, Senita and Glennwilde Groves now cover land in a city that grew up farming. Field rodents, crickets and ants live in cultivated and open ground, and plowing, harvest and grading send them toward the nearest houses. Homes on the outer streets benefit most from tight garage door seals and sealed gaps around pipes and weep screeds.
How we handle rodentsThe Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa washes
The Santa Cruz Wash crosses the city, with bridges on Honeycutt Road and State Route 347, and Smith-Enke Road crosses the Santa Rosa Wash. Scorpions, spiders and rodents shelter in washes and brush, and the homes that back onto that land see them first. Treating the fence line and yard, and keeping firewood and debris off the walls, takes away the cover nearest the house.
How we handle bark scorpionsCopper Sky, Pacana Park and the turf
Copper Sky Regional Park covers 98 acres with a five-acre fishing lake, and Pacana Park has about 28 acres around its own lake, while greenbelts inside the planned neighborhoods add more irrigated turf next to homes. Damp turf suits crickets and earwigs, and still water left after storms can breed mosquitoes. Keeping sprinkler spray off the walls and emptying containers that hold water keeps those numbers down around the house.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Yes. The City of Maricopa is in our Pinal County coverage, and we visit homes in its neighborhoods by appointment. The inspection is free, and so is the quote.
Fields and open ground are full of them, and every time land is plowed, harvested or graded they move to new shelter, which is often the nearest garage or block wall. Sealing gaps and treating the perimeter before that happens helps more than waiting until they are inside.
Yes. Bark scorpions are the most common scorpion in the low desert, and the washes and desert land around the city are their habitat. Extension’s advice is to change the conditions around the house rather than rely on pesticides alone, so the first steps are closing gaps and moving debris off the walls.
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.
