MARICOPA, AZ EXTERMINATOR FOR SCORPIONS, CRICKETS & TERMITES
Pest control for Maricopa's master-planned neighborhoods, with no contracts.
Maricopa is one of Arizona's youngest cities. It incorporated in 2003, and in about 20 years it grew from farm country into a city of more than 75,000. It's connected to the rest of the Valley by State Route 347, which runs about 14 miles north to I-10, and it sits between the Ak-Chin Indian Community and the Gila River Indian Community. Nearly every neighborhood was built on former farmland, next to open desert or both.
Three Suns Pest Control is a Queen Creek-based, family-owned pest company (AZ license #10019). We help Maricopa homeowners with scorpions, crickets, termites, rodents and weeds. Call 480-435-0339 for a free estimate.

WHY MARICOPA GETS SO MANY CRICKETS AND SCORPIONS
Built on farmland. Most of Maricopa's neighborhoods replaced cotton and crop fields. Fields that remain around town still hold crickets, beetles and mice, and they move toward homes when the land is worked.
Community lakes. Rancho El Dorado, Glennwilde, Homestead and Tortosa all have lakes or water features. Water draws insects, insects draw scorpions and spiders, and moist soil draws termites.
Open desert on the edges. Many streets end at open desert. Scorpions and black widows cross into block walls and garages, especially during monsoon season.

MARICOPA NEIGHBORHOODS WE PROTECT
Rancho El Dorado. Maricopa's first master-planned community has more than 3,100 homes, a lake, and the city's only golf course subdivision. Golf and lake lots see heavy cricket and scorpion activity in summer.
Province. A gated 55+ community with nearly 1,700 homes and a clubhouse over 50,000 square feet. We treat around patios, garages and block walls, and keep homes protected for seasonal residents.
Glennwilde Groves. With more than 1,900 homes and a stocked fishing lake, Glennwilde has lots of irrigated common area. That's where crickets and ants build up before moving into yards.
Homestead and Tortosa. Homestead (about 2,100 homes) and Tortosa (about 1,200 homes) both have community lakes and newer phases near open land. Scorpions from construction areas are a common complaint.
Maricopa Meadows. About 1,600 homes and a disc golf course. Parks and open space are great for families and for crickets too, so a steady perimeter barrier keeps them outside.
We also serve Senita, Alterra, Santa Rosa Springs, Acacia Crossings and homes near Copper Sky Regional Park.

BEST MARICOPA PEST CONTROL COMPANY
The best Maricopa pest control company has to handle crickets as well as scorpions, because in Maricopa the two go together. Lakes, irrigated parks and nearby farmland breed crickets, and scorpions follow them to your walls. We treat the yard with granules to cut down crickets, inject block walls for scorpions, and treat around the foundation and garage. Termite checks are included, and callbacks are free. Maricopa customers can read our reviews on Google.
AFFORDABLE MARICOPA PEST CONTROL
Affordable Maricopa pest control starts with no contract and no startup fee. Every visit is the same price, including the first. Every-other-month service keeps most Maricopa homes protected for less than a monthly plan, and callbacks between visits are free. Many families here commute on SR-347, so we work with you to find a service day that fits your schedule.
LOCAL MARICOPA PEST CONTROL
Three Suns is a local, family-owned pest control company based in the Valley, and Maricopa is part of our regular Pinal County route. Owner Dallin Brown named the company after his three sons, and he runs it the way a family business should: answer the phone, show up on time and come back if something isn't right. You'll work with the same small team every visit, and they'll get to know your yard.
PET & FAMILY FRIENDLY MARICOPA PEST CONTROL
Maricopa is full of young families, so our pet and family friendly service is built around them. Most treatment happens outside, on block walls, the foundation, the garage and the yard. Inside, treatment stays along baseboards and door and window frames. Your technician will tell you how long to keep kids and pets off treated areas, usually until the product dries. If you need rodent control, the bait is locked inside stations that kids can't open.
HOW TO GET RID OF CRICKETS IN MARICOPA
Crickets are one of the most common calls we get from Maricopa. They're harmless, but they're loud, they gather by the hundreds around porch lights and garages, and they bring scorpions with them.
Here's what works:
Homes that back up to a community lake, a park or farmland usually see the most crickets, so those yards get extra attention along the back wall.
Here's what works:
- Treat the yard, not just the house. Crickets breed in lawns, gravel and weeds. A granular yard treatment knocks down the population where it starts.
- Change your lights. Yellow or warm LED bulbs attract far fewer crickets than bright white ones.
- Close the garage. Crickets pile into open garages at dusk, and scorpions follow them.
- Keep up with weeds. Weedy side yards give crickets a place to hide during the day.

CRICKET AND SCORPION PREVENTION TIPS FOR MARICOPA
- Switch porch lights to yellow bulbs to draw fewer crickets.
- Keep garage doors closed in the evening.
- Adjust sprinklers so they don't soak the foundation.
- Clear weeds from side yards where crickets hide during the day.
