"Home inspection was done for barriers to be placed for pigeon elimination at my residence. Area was cleaned with pressure wash and the barriers installed in a manner which is pretty unnoticeable. Thanks Raptor!"

Properties Across Central Phoenix
Some of the city's oldest neighborhoods, designated historic districts, tree-lined residential streets, downtown buildings, commercial corridors, multifamily properties, and newer infill construction.
Historic Districts
Willo, Encanto-Palmcroft, Roosevelt, FQ Story, and other designated historic districts feature homes from the 1920s through 1950s. Aging rooflines, original vent screens, crawlspaces, and mature landscaping create multiple pest entry points.
Downtown & Midtown
Commercial corridors, mixed-use buildings, and multifamily properties with shared walls, utility chases, and flat roofs. Pigeon pressure on parapets, HVAC equipment, and signage is constant.
Alhambra & North Central
Established residential neighborhoods with mature trees, block walls, and overhead utilities that serve as roof-rat travel routes. Mix of original construction and remodel additions.
Infill & Redevelopment
Newer construction built alongside or attached to older structures. Transitions between original and remodeled sections create gaps and openings that pests exploit.
Frequently Encountered Activity
These are the pests our technicians see most often on Central Phoenix properties. Click any pest to learn about our specialized control services.
Roof Rats
Trees, palms, overhead utilities, vines, and block walls serve as roof-rat pathways to aging rooflines, attic vents, and crawlspaces.
Sewer-Related Rodents
Older sewer connections, floor drains, and plumbing penetrations in pre-1960s construction can allow sewer rodent entry.
Norway Rats
Norway rat activity, when confirmed, involves ground-level burrowing near foundations, alleys, and refuse areas.
Pigeons
Pigeons roost on parapets, HVAC equipment, solar panels, signs, parking structures, and building ledges throughout downtown and commercial corridors.
Small Birds
Sparrows and starlings nest in vents, eaves, and utility chases of both residential and commercial buildings.
