Many Sun City homes date from the 1960s and sit on concrete slabs, which subterranean termites can get past through joints and cracks, and its mature landscaping shelters roaches and crickets.
Sun City is an unincorporated community in Maricopa County, about 16 miles northwest of downtown Phoenix, with 39,931 residents at the 2020 census. It opened on January 1, 1960, and its streets curve in concentric circles arranged in four main pinwheels. Maricopa County governs it and maintains its roads, and county overlay zoning requires at least one resident aged 55 or older in each home. Peoria borders it on the north, east and south, with Youngtown to the southwest, El Mirage to the west and Surprise to the northwest.

Circles of older homes, lakes and golf in Sun City
Homes dating back to 1960
Sun City’s first homes went up in 1960, and a second phase was built north of Grand Avenue, so many houses are now decades old. Concrete slabs develop cracks over time, and the desert subterranean termite, which University of Arizona Extension calls Arizona’s number one economic urban pest, reaches framing through slab cracks, expansion joints and plumbing entries. Mud tubes on the stem wall or on garage walls are the sign to look for.
How we handle termite treatmentViewpoint Lake, Dawn Lake and the golf courses
Viewpoint Lake opened in October 1968 and is owned by the community, and Dawn Lake is owned by the homeowners around it. Golf courses wind through the circles, and many homes back onto turf or water. Constantly watered grass keeps the soil damp along those back walls, which crickets and earwigs need, and still water at pond edges or in yard containers can breed mosquitoes after storms.
How we handle earwigsToward the Agua Fria River
West of Sun City, the Agua Fria River runs south between the community and Sun City West. Its dry bed of sand and brush shelters scorpions, spiders and rodents, which move into neighborhoods nearby. Homes on the western streets benefit from a treated fence line and yard, and from door sweeps and garage seals checked each year.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Yes. We schedule visits across Sun City at a time that works for you. We inspect and quote without charge, there are no contracts, and the 30-day service guarantee covers every treatment.
Pencil-width mud tubes running up a stem wall or garage wall are how subterranean termites travel from the soil to wood without drying out. Breaking one open and finding it rebuilt a few days later suggests activity. Leave it in place and have it inspected, because the inspection decides what treatment, if any, is needed.
They often do, because watered turf keeps the soil moist all the way to the back wall. Crickets also gather at bright lights, so shielded lighting aimed at the ground, and treatment along the yard and perimeter, help keep them from reaching doors and garages.
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.
