Family-owned pest control across Fountain Hills, Scottsdale & the East Valley
For more than fifty years, Cummings Termite & Pest has been the family behind the truck in Fountain Hills driveways, Scottsdale backyards, and East Valley neighborhoods stretching from Mesa and Gilbert to Cave Creek and Paradise Valley. What started as a straightforward commitment to honest pest work in 1972 has grown into a business built not on advertising claims, but on referrals from homeowners who watched the problem actually go away.
The desert environment that makes Arizona beautiful also makes it relentless. Subterranean termites work silently through foundations. Bark scorpions squeeze through gaps a credit card could barely fit. Wildlife that belongs in the Sonoran Desert sometimes decides a warm attic or crawl space is more appealing than the open desert. Our certified and fingerprinted technicians are trained across that full spectrum — from common household pests to structural threats to the wildlife scenarios that general pest companies typically decline. Every job, whether residential or commercial, starts with a free inspection so we understand exactly what we are dealing with before we recommend anything.
Because we are family-owned and our reputation travels with every truck we send out, we keep our work straightforward. We will tell you what we found, explain what it takes to solve it, and give you a clear plan — not a pressure pitch. That approach has earned us a 4.9-star rating across nearly 300 Google reviews, and it is the same approach every customer in our service area gets, whether they called about something crawling in the kitchen or something growing in the yard.
What does pest control cost?
Every job at Cummings starts with a free inspection — no charge, no obligation. From there, we build a quote specific to your property: its size, the pest or wildlife involved, and how far along the problem has progressed. Pest control is not one-size-fits-all, and we do not price it that way. Once you have the inspection findings and a written plan in hand, the decision is entirely yours.

Services FAQ
Common questions about our services
What's included, how treatments work, and what to expect from Cummings.
Every service starts with a free inspection of the property so we know exactly what we're treating before any work begins. From there you get a written treatment plan matched to your home, the targeted treatment itself applied by a certified technician, and clear guidance on what to expect afterward. We don't run a generic spray-and-go route — the plan reflects the pests we actually find and the layout of your property.
Both. Some problems are solved with a single targeted visit, while ongoing desert pressures like scorpions and ants are usually best managed with a recurring schedule. After the free inspection we'll recommend whichever approach fits your situation, and the choice is always yours — we don't lock customers into contracts they don't want.
Termites are a structural threat rather than a surface nuisance, so they call for a different approach — a thorough inspection of the foundation and structure, and a treatment plan sized to the extent of any activity we find. Termite inspections are free for homes and businesses across Fountain Hills, Scottsdale, and the East Valley, and if we find activity we'll explain the full scope before recommending anything.
Yes. Alongside common insects we handle rodents, bats, snakes, and other wildlife that general pest companies often decline. Our technicians are trained for humane exclusion and removal — sealing entry points and resolving the problem at its source rather than just reacting to what you see.
Yes — we select treatments and application methods with households in mind, and every product is applied by a trained, certified technician rather than sprayed indiscriminately. For each service we'll explain where we're treating, why that method fits your situation, and any short precaution to follow, so you can make an informed call before we begin.
Yes. Cummings Termite & Pest provides pest, termite, wildlife, and weed control for both residential and commercial properties throughout the East Valley. We tailor the plan to the property, whether it's a single-family home or a commercial facility with ongoing compliance needs.
