Termite Control for Mesa Homeowners and Their Families

City Wide Pest Control is locally owned and operated, offering termite pest control in Mesa and across Maricopa County for over 40 years.

Residential Termite Inspection and Treatment for Mesa Homes

When you are looking for Mesa termite control, the first step is understanding what you are up against. Subterranean termites, the species behind most structural damage in Arizona, nest in the soil in large colonies and feed on wood framing, drywall paper and supports from below. Because they work out of sight, a professional inspection is the surest way to know where your home stands.
City Wide Pest Control is a family owned termite company in Mesa and across Maricopa County, based in Phoenix and run by the same family since 1986. Our licensed team knows how desert soil and heat shape termite behavior, so every plan for termite treatment in Mesa is built around your home. Residential customers never sign a contract.

Signs Termites May Be Present

Keep an eye out for these clues around your home.

Thin mud tubes on foundation walls, stem walls or near pipes

Wood that sounds hollow when tapped, often near doors, windows and baseboards

Shed wings left near windows, doors or lights after a swarm

Paint that bubbles or peels on walls and ceilings like water damage

Wood in framing that feels soft or crumbles easily

Tiny holes in drywall or piles of frass (termite droppings)

If any of these look familiar, call (602) 944-0099 and we will schedule a termite inspection for you.

Why Termite Protection Matters in Arizona

Desert conditions keep termites busy for much of the year. Warm soil and monsoon moisture support active colonies, and Arizona termites do not take a long winter break the way they do in colder states. That is why termite removal in Mesa starts with an accurate inspection.
Standard homeowner’s insurance does not typically cover termite damage, so staying ahead of activity is the practical way to protect your investment. A colony left alone can gradually weaken framing, flooring and support beams. An inspection gives you facts, and a treatment backed by a one-year warranty gives you peace of mind.

Termite Control in Mesa Neighborhoods

Housing in Mesa spans several eras. The median year built is 1989, and about 40 percent of units (89,832 of 223,662) were built between 1980 and 1999, while about 27 percent (61,329) date to before 1980. Mobile homes make up about 13 percent of housing (29,335 units), a far larger share than most Valley cities. We adapt each inspection to how the home was built, from Dobson Ranch to Las Sendas.
The city delivers flood irrigation to about 300 customers between Mesa Dr. and Country Club and 8th St. and 8th Ave., and irrigated properties elsewhere are served by SRP or Roosevelt Water Conservation District. University of Arizona Extension advises keeping soil within 1 foot of the stem wall dry and main irrigation pipes more than 18 inches from the stem wall. At about 1,326 feet, Mesa sits below 4,000 feet, where the arid land subterranean termite swarms between January and March and the desert subterranean termite flies after monsoon rains from July to September.

How We Treat Termites

Step 1
Thorough Inspection
Step one is a thorough inspection by our state-licensed technicians. They check crawl spaces, the attic, the foundation, pipe penetrations and any spot where wood meets soil, looking for live activity, entry points and conditions that attract termites.
Step 2
Custom Treatment Plan
Next we build a plan around what we found, including your home’s construction, soil and how far activity has spread. Every property gets its own approach.
Step 3
Liquid Barrier Treatment
We apply termiticide around the foundation perimeter, near pipe penetrations and at every entry point we found, forming an unbroken barrier that stops termites on contact and blocks their return.
Step 4
Monitoring and Follow-Up
Once treatment is complete, we keep watching for further activity and re-treat if needed. You receive documentation of our findings for your records.
Step 5
1-Year Warranty
Every termite treatment comes with a one-year warranty for your peace of mind.

Termite Species Found Around Mesa

Desert subterranean termite (Heterotermes aureus) soldier and workers inside a wood gallery
Desert Subterranean Termite
Heterotermes aureus
The one you are most likely to meet across Maricopa County. Workers are pale and soft-bodied, roughly a quarter inch long. Colonies stay in the soil and send mud tubes up to reach wood, and they remain active through Arizona’s mild desert winters.
Arid-land subterranean termite (Reticulitermes tibialis) workers and a soldier on damaged wood
Arid-Land Subterranean Termite
Reticulitermes tibialis
Closely related to the desert subterranean termite, with somewhat larger colonies. It favors irrigated, landscaped areas with mulch and constructs wide webs of mud tubes. Often found in established neighborhoods with mature trees and thick landscaping.

Western Drywood Termite
Incisitermes minor
Drywood termites differ from the others because they live and feed within the wood itself, so they need no soil contact and build no mud tubes. Typical trouble spots include attic framing, window sills and door frames. Activity tends to stay in one area but can spread if left alone.

Family owned since 1986. No contracts required.
