Termite Control for Peoria Homes Near Lake Pleasant

Looking for termite control in Peoria? City Wide Pest Control has served Maricopa County homeowners for over 40 years, with licensed technicians and honest, no-pressure service.

Residential Termite Treatment for Homes in Peoria, Arizona

UA Extension identifies the desert subterranean termite (Heterotermes aureus) as the most destructive termite in Arizona, and the most common subterranean termite in the Sonoran desert below 4,000 feet. These colonies work out of sight in the soil and reach wood framing from underneath, so a trained eye is often the first to spot them. A thorough inspection tells you where things stand.
We are a family owned business based in Phoenix, and Mike and Steven still lead the company their family has owned since 1986. As a locally owned and operated termite exterminator in Peoria, we know how Arizona soil and desert heat shape termite activity. Residential service never requires a contract, and you get a plain answer and a plan that fits your home.

Why Arizona Homes Need Termite Protection

Warm desert soil and mild winters let termites stay active for much of the year in Arizona, and moisture from irrigation or monsoon storms can draw them toward a foundation. Because activity is hard to see, a routine inspection is a sensible habit for any homeowner, not just after a problem appears.
Standard homeowner’s insurance typically does not cover termite damage, which makes early attention a smart way to look after your budget as well as your home. Framing, flooring, and support beams all stay in better shape when a colony is dealt with promptly. Our technicians document what they find, so you always have a clear record.

Termite Protection for Peoria's Desert Neighborhoods

The median year structure built for Peoria housing is 1999, and about 52.6 percent of housing units (41,601 of 79,085) went up before 2000, per the ACS 2020 to 2024 5-year estimates. That gives soil, irrigation, and landscaping many years to change around a foundation, which is why a periodic inspection makes sense even when nothing looks wrong. Single-family detached homes make up about 74.3 percent of units (58,736 of 79,085), so most properties have a full perimeter to inspect and protect.
Whether you live in Vistancia, near Old Town Peoria, or in Trilogy Ridgecrest, the visit looks the same: a licensed technician inspects, explains what was found, and recommends a plan. Our termite pest control in Peoria follows Integrated Pest Management, with kid and pet friendly treatment options available. Lake Pleasant Regional Park runs a Bald Eagle Program and pollinator and butterfly monitoring, and we bring that same care for the outdoors to every yard we work in.

How Our Treatment Works

Step 1
Thorough Inspection
A licensed technician walks the whole property, checking the foundation, crawl spaces, attic, pipe penetrations, and anywhere wood meets soil. We look for live activity, how termites are getting in, and conditions that attract them.
Step 2
Custom Treatment Plan
Next we build a plan around your home’s construction, the soil around it, and how far the activity has spread. Every home gets its own plan.
Step 3
Liquid Barrier Treatment
We apply a professional-grade termiticide around the foundation perimeter, at pipe penetrations, and at any entry points we found, forming an unbroken barrier that stops termites on contact and blocks them from coming back.
Step 4
Monitoring and Follow-Up
Once treatment is done, we keep watching the property for new activity and treat again if needed, noting everything we find for your records.
Step 5
1-Year Warranty
Every termite treatment we complete is backed by our one-year warranty.

Termites You May Find Around Peoria

Desert subterranean termite (Heterotermes aureus) soldier and workers inside a wood gallery
Desert Subterranean Termite
Heterotermes aureus
This is the most common termite in the county. Workers are pale, soft-bodied, and roughly 1/4 inch long. The colony lives in the soil and raises mud tubes to get at timber above ground, while warm desert soil keeps it active through the year.
Arid-land subterranean termite (Reticulitermes tibialis) workers and a soldier on damaged wood
Arid-Land Subterranean Termite
Reticulitermes tibialis
A close relative of the desert subterranean termite, with somewhat larger colonies. It favors irrigated, landscaped areas with mulch and builds wide webs of mud tubes. Older neighborhoods with mature trees and thick landscaping are where it turns up most.

Western Drywood Termite
Incisitermes minor
Drywood termites live and feed inside timber itself, so they do not need soil or mud tubes. They tend to turn up around doors, windowsills, and attic beams. Infestations usually stay in one area but can spread if left alone.

Family owned since 1986. No contracts required.
