Brown Recluse spiders get their name from their color and reclusive habits. They usually run for cover when disturbed. This spider is also called the Violin Spider because of the brown violin shape on the back of it’s head or “cephalothorax”.
Following application of chloropicrin, Vikane fumigant (99.8 percent sulfuryl fluoride) was introduced at a dose of 9.8 ounces per 1,000 ft3 for a 25-hour exposure with a target accumulated dosage of 117 ounce-hours per 1,000 ft3. The required dosage was based on the target pest and a soil temperature of 71°F for the crawlspace of the building. The fumigation was monitored using an RDA Fumiscope, made by Key Chemical and Equipment Company. The actual accumulated dosage was slightly more than 160 ounce-hours per 1,000 ft3, which translated into 1.7x the drywood termite dosage.
Spiders were checked for survival about 30 hours after the building was aerated using the California Aeration Plan and clearance testing was conducted. Of the 36 brown recluses exposed to sulfuryl fluoride, all 18 males and 13 of 18 females were dead with the remaining five females being moribund. These five were dead within a week.” – read more
Responsible Pest Control services for spiders is included in the general pest control services. We actually don’t have the true Brown Recluse in Greater Phoenix. We have the cousin, call the Mojave Brown Spider. Brown Recluse spiders are not in the Greater Phoenix Valley as some people think. Other spiders in Phoenix AZ valley areas are often mistaken for Brown Recluse Spiders by the untrained eye.
Treatment Inside Homes
These spiders can be found inside homes in any undisturbed area that they can get access to. Brown Recluse are often found in seldom used areas like: boxes, clothing, shoes, and among papers. Storage areas are were they are most often found. They can also be in corners, under furniture, and along baseboards, windows, and doors.
Exterior Spider Control
Treating for Brown Recluse (and other spiders) outside includes perimeters and treating places they like to shelter in. Brown Recluse spiders outside are found in utility boxes, around rocks, under leaves, and in wood piles. Keeping landscape maintained will help eliminate sheltering areas.
Make sure to move all wood (or debris) piles away from your house at least 20 feet as these are common places spiders infest. Keeping wood piles away from your home will help keep any spider infestations from getting into your home!

German Roach Treatment VS Regular Pest Control
Pest Control – German Roaches
Responsible Pest Control specializes in Effective German Roach Control for homes & businesses in Mesa & Greater Phoenix AZ.
German Roaches are a COMMON invader to restaurants, markets, hospitals, & homes.
However, German Roaches reproduce SO much FASTER than other cockroaches, so they require different products and a more FREQUENT SPECIALIZED treatment to eliminate. German Roach infestations are usually introduced on infested shipped goods & packaging, and infestations establish very quickly if not treated.
Fun Fact: Cockroaches can live a week without their heads. They only die because they can’t drink!

German Cockroach Pest Control
Uncontrolled German Roach numbers will just EXPLODE! German Roaches need specialized treatment with an “Insect Growth Regulator” to stop their reproductive cycle.
Because of their RAPID reproductive rate, German Roach pest control treatments must be more frequent than regular pest control. One of the most effective ways to control German Cockroach infestations is using specialized baits that mature roaches eat & then pass on to their young. However, these roaches will take the bait when there aren’t other food sources competing.
German Roach Treatments come with two follow-up treatments, and are always GUARANTEED.

Ant Pest Control in 7 Steps
1- Identification
Treatment for Ants depends on the species of ant, areas infested, and type of products being applied. Different types of ants have different nesting / feeding habits that should be used to help control them.
2- Locate Nests
Locating ant nests is CRUCIAL, at minimum determine whether ants are coming from inside, or outside. Ants will return if you fail to treat the nest.
3- Seal Entry Areas
Openings around incoming pipes, utilities, door frames, window frames, ect, should be caulked around to seal. Replace old weatherstripping and door sweeps.
4- Pest Control Treatment
This includes treating ants at nest, and interior/exterior perimeters to prevent entry.
5- Eliminate Food Sources!
This will include aphids if ants are feeding on their honeydew. Remove all other sources!
6- Baiting
Baiting is often the most effective way to eliminate the entire ant colony! A few ants take bait back to feed the entire ant colony with! Baits are taken back to the colony as food, thus eliminating the entire colony in just a few days.
7- Sanitation
When applicable remove plants that attract ants (nectar plants), trim trees and bushes touching structure (these can assist ants in entering a structure), reduce moisture sources. Eliminate APHIDS Most ants are attracted to the “honeydew” produced by Aphids including: Acrobat ants, Argentine ants, Carpenter ants, Cornfield ants, Field ants, Larger Yellow ants, Little Black ants, Little Fire ants, Odorous House ants, Pavement ants, Pyramid ants, Red Imported Fire ants, Small Honey ants, Southern Fire ants, and Velvety Tree ants.

Ant colonies can range in number from 300,000 to 500,000! Entire colonies can uproot & relocate quickly when threatened. Scientists estimate that for every person on earth there are 1.5 MILLION Ants!
Ants are social insects, and live in COLONIES usually underground, but also enter homes and buildings for food or shelter. Ants eat practically every kind of food, but Ants entering homes are looking for sweets or protein rich food sources.
The most common wall-nesting ants are:
- Carpenter ants
- Crazy ants
- Odorous house ants
- Pharaoh ants
- Rover Ants (also called “piss ants’)
I just wanted to let you know what a great job Responsible Pest Control does, they are very knowledgeable, professional and very nice. I really like the service they do for me each month!”

Over 700 species of Ants live in the US {25 species infest homes.}
Ants are very social bugs that live in large colonies usually underground or in walls. And Ants are always working on EXPANDING their territory!
Ants feed on just about anything, but usually INVADE homes looking for sweets, or protein sources. “Piss Ants” are one of the most common type of ant infesting homes and yards throughout the Phoenix AZ Valley.
Ants are interesting as they often fight over territory. (unless they’re Argentine Ants.) We recommend MONTHLY or Bi-Monthly Pest Control service for GUARANTEED control ants around your home or office… (If ants come back so do we;)
Fire Ants
Pest Control for Fire Ants requires scheduled inspections and pest control services, because Fire Ants {like other ants} tend to re-invade!
It’s always most effective to do a thorough INSPECTION in you home and yard to LOCATE and IDENTIFY nests. These nests can then be effectively treated individually with proper insecticide, and BAITS that eradicate the entire colony.
Fire ants in the Phoenix Valley are NOT the aggressive RED IMPORTED FIRE Ants species that pose a major medical threat. They are the Southern Fire Ant species which still sting, but do not attack as aggressively. OUTSIDE in yards, these ants usually nest somewhere close to the kitchen but in the soil. Common nesting places are under stones, at the base of trees, bushes, also in gas and water meter boxes, or other objects that provide shelter. Sometimes Southern Fire Ants infest INSIDE homes, usually in a warm area close to the ground. Southern Fire sometimes remove insulation in electric and phone wires, and GNAW on soiled CLOTHING. They like to feed on seeds, nuts, other bugs, honeydew, SWEETS, and meats.
Fire Ants are always working on EXPANDING their colonies…We recommend MONTHLY or Bi-Monthly Pest Control service for GUARANTEED control of ants around your home or office… (If ants come back so do we;)
