Why Pests Might Be Coming to Your Home in Pima County, AZ
The Sonoran Desert’s extreme climate makes pests desperate for food, water, and shelter. Here’s why they might be invading your space:
- Heat & Drought Conditions – Scorpions, rodents, and roaches search for cooler environments inside homes.
- Monsoon Season – Heavy summer rains create breeding grounds for mosquitoes and force termites to swarm.
- Cracks in Foundations & Walls – Small openings allow roof rats, spiders, and cockroaches easy access indoors.
- Outdoor Water Sources – Pools, birdbaths, and leaking pipes attract fire ants, mosquitoes, and rodents.
- Urban Expansion – New housing developments disturb natural habitats, causing pests to move into homes.
