Think Your Home Is Pest-Free? Think Again.

In Arizona, pests like scorpions, roaches, rodents, and ants are experts at hiding—often making themselves comfortable in your home long before you notice anything is wrong. The truth is, most infestations begin quietly, and if you don’t know what to look for, they can get out of hand quickly.

At Bug Eyes Pest Control, we’re trained to spot the signs early—and now you can be too. Here are the top five red flags that might indicate it’s time to call the pros.


🪳 1. Droppings and Shed Skins

Rodents, cockroaches, and even bed bugs leave behind signs of their presence in the form of droppings or shedded skins.

🚨 Look for:

  • Small black pellets in drawers, cabinets, or along baseboards
  • Oval roach droppings near water sources
  • Tiny bed bug skins in mattress seams

If you’re seeing these—you’re already late to the party.


🧱 2. Strange Noises in the Walls or Ceilings

Scratching, squeaking, or scuttling at night? You’re likely hearing rodents or insects moving through your walls or attic.

Rodents chew through insulation and wiring, while larger insects may nest behind baseboards or under floors.

Pro tip: The quieter your home is, the more likely you are to hear them.


🕸️ 3. Unusual Smells or Musty Odors

Some pests give off distinctive smells when nesting or dying. Cockroach infestations often come with a musty, oily smell, while rodent urine and droppings can cause a sharp ammonia odor.

🛑 If your home has unexplained smells that cleaning can’t fix, pests could be the source.


🕳️ 4. Holes, Gnaw Marks, or Damage

Rodents and insects cause physical damage as they try to find food or build nests.

👀 Look for:

  • Gnawed corners of food packaging
  • Chewed wiring (a serious fire hazard)
  • Tiny holes in walls or flooring

If you’re seeing this kind of damage, a pest inspection is a must.


🐜 5. You See One… Then Another

Spotting a single ant, roach, or spider might seem minor—but pests rarely travel alone. For every one you see, there could be dozens—or hundreds—you don’t.

In Arizona, this especially applies to:
🪳 German cockroaches
🐜 Pavement ants
🕷️ Brown recluse spiders
🦂 Arizona bark scorpions

Don’t wait to see more—one is enough reason to act.
