Common Pests in Peoria, AZ
Pest Control
More on pests in your area
Peoria, AZ, is warm year-round, making it a prime location for many stinging pests. Arizona bark scorpions, the most venomous scorpions in North America, are native to the area. Most active at night, these pests are sometimes hard to detect. However, UV and black lights can be helpful in seeing and avoiding them, as they make scorpions glow in the dark. Despite being venomous, their stings are very rarely life threatening, but still require professional medical attention.
Cockroaches are common nuisance pests of the relatively dry Arizona climate. Often hiding in cabinets and dark corners in Peoria homes, these pests wreak havoc once they are inside. The biggest concern regarding cockroaches is their ability to transmit diseases and contaminate food. Many people are also unknowingly allergic to the pests, which causes additional health risks. Cockroach saliva, feces, and shed skin can trigger symptoms of allergic reactions and aggravate asthma.
