Yuma's Most Common Pests
We treat them all. Fast, locally, and with the desert in mind.
-
Scorpions
Bark scorpions are Yuma's most dangerous pest — venomous, active year-round, and skilled climbers. We use targeted elimination plus home sealing to keep them out for good.
Stop Scorpions Today -
Termites
Subterranean termites silently destroy your home's structure. Free inspection with every first visit — don't wait until you see damage.
Book Free Inspection -
Ants
Fire ants, carpenter ants, and odorous house ants are relentless in Yuma's heat. We eliminate the colony, not just the trail you see.
Kill the Colony -
Roaches
American and German cockroaches multiply fast in Yuma's heat. Professional treatment targets the source — kitchens, plumbing, garages — not just where you spotted one.
Eliminate Roaches -
Spiders
Black widows and brown recluse spiders are common in Yuma homes and yards. Both are venomous and require professional treatment, not store-bought spray.
Get Spider Control -
Rodents
Mice and roof rats seek food and shelter in Yuma homes year-round, especially when summer heat hits 115°. We trap, exclude entry points, and sanitize.
Remove Rodents

Questions Yuma Families Ask Us
Quick answers to the questions we hear most. Don't see yours? Call us — we're happy to help.
Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?
Yes. We use EPA-approved products applied by licensed technicians, with safe-entry times communicated clearly. Most treatments are dry within 30 minutes of application.
How quickly can you come out?
Same-day service is available across Yuma County in most cases. Call before noon and we usually can be there the same afternoon. For scheduled membership service, we work around your availability.
What if pests come back between treatments?
Call us. We come back free of charge. That's the Bug Out Satisfaction Guarantee — every membership tier includes free re-service if pests show up between scheduled visits.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. Memberships are month-to-month and you can cancel anytime. We earn your business every visit, not with a contract.
Do you treat scorpions specifically?
Yes — scorpion control is one of our most-requested services. We use targeted treatments combined with entry-point sealing because scorpions need both eliminated to keep them out long-term. Bark scorpions are Yuma's most dangerous pest, and we treat them seriously.
How is Bug Out different from the big national companies?
We're locally owned and operated in Yuma since 2016. Our technicians live in the neighborhoods they treat. We know which products work in Yuma's heat, which pests are seasonal, and where bark scorpions hide in your specific zip code. National companies rotate routes and apply products by checklist — we don't.
What areas do you serve?
All of Yuma County — Yuma, Fortuna Foothills, Somerton, San Luis, Wellton, Tacna, Roll, Dateland, and everywhere in between. If you're not sure whether we cover your address, call us. We probably do.
