In my opinion they did a through job it was my understanding that they used the best chemical that was legally available. I had the work done three years ago and have not had any problems or visible signs of insects.

Wow! Wow! Wow! I had a great experience with Arizona Pest Control. They have gone above and beyond for me, and I can't thank them enough. I had a serious scorpion situation, plus I thought I had a rat in my attic, and they were helpful for both. Craig especially impressed me with the scorpion situation - I would give him a million-star review if that was possible. He has made me a dedicated customer for life. I also can't say enough good things about Will. The staff has been respectful, on-time, friendly, and kind. Thank you, Arizona Pest Control!!!!

We have relied on Arizona Pest Control for several years, especially since we had wood laminate flooring installed throughout our home. Since termites find wood laminate to be "mighty tasty", we have recently installed the Sentricon termite system as a proactive measure. In short, we know our home is in great hands with APC -- our past experience with this outstanding company insures that.

Not only did Arizona Pest Control provide timely and effective service, they helped to alleviate our concerns of long-term damage. I can’t recommend this company enough!
