Help with pests across Summerlin
Summerlin stretches along the western edge of the valley toward Red Rock Canyon and the Spring Mountains. Its villages are known for parks, trails, golf courses and lots of landscaping. All that greenery is great for families, and it also attracts insects, which in turn attract the scorpions and spiders that eat them.
Vegas Pest Marketplace is a free service that connects Summerlin homeowners with a licensed Nevada pest control company that serves the area. Tell us what you're seeing, and they'll call you back with a free estimate.
Living next to the desert
Many Summerlin homes back up to open desert, natural washes, trails or golf courses. Rocky desert is prime scorpion habitat. Bark scorpions travel into yards at night, climb block walls and find their way inside through small gaps. A walk along your back wall with a UV flashlight on a warm night is an easy way to see what's out there, since scorpions glow under UV light. More about scorpions.
Trees, landscaping and pests
Mature trees, palms, shrubs and drip irrigation give pests shade and water. Branches that touch the house can act as a bridge for scorpions, spiders and roaches. Ground cover and mulch keep the soil damp, which earwigs, millipedes, centipedes and crickets like. Trimming branches back from the house, keeping plants off the walls and checking irrigation for leaks can make a real difference.
What Summerlin homeowners often see

HOA and gated communities
Many Summerlin neighborhoods have HOA rules or gate access. When the pest control company calls, let them know if you're in a gated community or have HOA guidelines, so they can plan access and work within the rules.
