The Florence Scorpion Problem: More Than Just a Nuisance
For many Florence residents, the “Florence Twitch”, that habit of shaking out your shoes or checking under the bed sheets, is a way of life. Arizona Bark Scorpions are expert climbers and can fit through gaps as thin as a credit card. They thrive in the rock landscaping and block walls common in neighborhoods like Sun City Anthem.
The problem isn’t just the scorpions themselves; it’s the environment that sustains them. Scorpions follow their food source. If your home has crickets, roaches, or ants, it is essentially a buffet for scorpions. Traditional “one-size-fits-all” pest control often fails because it doesn’t account for the heat-resistant nature of desert pests or the specific entry points of Arizona-style construction.
Stop worrying about what’s crawling in the dark. Call Bucksworth Home Services at (480) 422-8388 to start your specialized scorpion defense plan today.

Frequently Asked Questions about Florence Pest Control
How often should I get pest control in Florence, AZ?
For desert homes, especially those prone to scorpions, we recommend our Bi-monthly (Scorpion/Platinum) service. This frequency ensures the protective barrier remains effective against the harsh Arizona sun, which can break down lower-quality products faster than in other climates.
Are scorpions dangerous to my pets?
Yes, bark scorpions can be dangerous to small pets. While a sting is rarely fatal to healthy adult humans, it can cause significant pain and medical distress for dogs and cats. Our targeted scorpion protection focuses on the areas where pets play, keeping them safe.
Do I need pest control for a new build in Anthem at Merrill Ranch?
Absolutely. New construction often displaces existing pest populations. Furthermore, many new builds have gaps in the framing and foundation that act as open doors for pests. We specialize in New Construction Termite Pre-Treat and initial pest barriers for new homes.
What makes your weed control better than store-bought options?
We use a custom-blended Pre-Emergent designed specifically for the stubborn broadleaf weeds found in Pinal County. Our “two-in-one” approach kills current weeds and prevents new ones from germinating for months, saving you the back-breaking labor of pulling weeds in 110-degree heat.
