Located in the middle of the sweltering Salt River Valley, Phoenix is a bustling city and excellent place to live, two of the many reasons it is the capital of the state of Arizona. Despite being a huge city in the middle of the desert, Phoenix presents residents and visitors with no shortage of things to do, including cultural and historical attractions to explore and numerous outdoor destinations and recreational activities.
Unfortunately, Phoenix's characteristically hot summers and mild winters make it the perfect environment for termites, mosquitoes, stinging insects, ants, and other common invasive pests. Pests can quickly turn those pleasant outdoor days into nightmares, and as the most populous city in the nation, they have no shortage of homes and businesses to choose from when they need a new place to nest.
When pests invade homes, numerous problems quickly follow. Between property damage, disease, food contamination, and other detrimental effects, a pest infestation can never be allowed to persist in or around your home. Luckily, that’s where Pestmaster® Services comes in.

Summertime in Phoenix is perfect for outdoor days by the pool or at a barbecue. Unfortunately, the climate also creates perfect conditions for mosquitoes to invade. Mosquito bites are more than just annoying: they can present several dangers, and spread illnesses including malaria, West Nile virus, Zika virus, dengue fever, and more.
Minimizing mosquito exposure can be difficult, and unless you never leave your home, it's almost impossible to fully prevent. However, certain precautions can lower your risk of bites:
Reduce excess moisture and sources of standing water around your property. Even the smallest puddle can be a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Clean up the yard of any clutter, such as tires, toys, or discarded newspapers, that could create mosquito harborage sites.
Plant mosquito-repellent bushes, such as citronella or lemongrass, or catnip, around your property.
Use citronella candles when spending time outdoors.
Spray DEET on your clothing when outdoors.
Wear lighter-colored clothing while outdoors.
The best way to minimize mosquito exposure around your Phoenix home is with a professional mosquito treatment from Pestmaster® Services. We offer several different treatment options to reduce the mosquito populations in your yard. We will craft the perfect solution that fits your home’s unique needs. No matter the size or severity of your mosquito problem, Pestmaster® Services has the tools and know-how to eliminate it completely.
Bed bugs are a year-round threat for homes and businesses across the nation. Unfortunately, they’re also notoriously difficult to treat using DIY methods alone. This makes a professional treatment your only real option should bed bugs start keeping you up at night.
Keep a lookout for some of the most common indicators that alert homeowners to a bed bug infestation:
Bed bug bites on the skin, small red bumps generally bunched into groupings of 3-4
Tiny black streaks or specks found on bedding, clothing, mattresses, box springs, bed frames, baseboards, carpets, or furniture
Small white sheddings leftover by young bed bugs as they molt and mature
Small white eggs about 1mm in length, often found in batches
Bed bug bodies, live or dead; bed bugs are about 1mm long when they first hatch, pale white in coloration with six legs. Adults change color into brown or black, although they can have a reddish tint if they’ve recently fed on blood
If you’ve seen any of these signs in your home, don’t hesitate to call a professional for help. Even if you’re uncertain if your home has a bed bug infestation, it never hurts to have a professional inspection to ensure these headache-inducing bugs haven’t gotten into your home.
