TUCSON, Arizona — October 23, 2026 — Rigo Pest Prevention was named Best Pest Control Company in the Arizona Daily Star’s 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards. The award marks the company’s eighth consecutive win, extending a streak that began in 2019. Rigo announced the recognition to customers on September 18, 2026.

“Eight years is a milestone we’re incredibly proud of, and we know we couldn’t have reached it without your trust and support,” said Rigo Arce, President of Rigo Pest Prevention. “Every time you trust us to protect your home, recommend us to a friend or neighbor, leave us a review, or take the time to vote for us, you’re supporting our team and our local business in a meaningful way.”

The Arizona Daily Star Readers’ Choice Awards recognize local businesses across more than 200 categories. The process begins with public nominations, followed by community voting to determine the winners.

Eight Years of Votes, Eight Years of Trusted Service

Rigo’s approach to pest control includes flexible service options, treatment warranties, and technician training. Customers can choose services without committing to a long-term contract. Eligible one-time treatments include a 60-day warranty, while quarterly recurring services include a 90-day warranty. If covered pests return during the applicable warranty period, Rigo provides re-treatment at no additional charge, subject to the warranty terms.

Arce also brings 37 years of pest control experience to the business and personally trains every technician. The company also maintains a 4.9-star rating from more than 700 Google reviews.

A Tucson Company Still Run By The People Who Started It

Founded in 2008 by Rigo Arce, John Patton and Stephen Holcomb, Rigo Pest Prevention remains locally owned and operated by its original founding team. The company has served nearly 6,000 Tucson-area homeowners and operates across 15 communities, including Oro Valley, Marana, Green Valley, Sahuarita and Vail.

 “We answer the phone, respond quickly, and we have a low-turnover team trained to provide service our customers can rely on,” said John Patton, General Manager and Owner.

Pest Control FAQs

Do I need a contract for pest control service?
No hard contracts. Pest control should earn your business every visit, not lock it in.
If pests come back, you go to the front of the line. Ahead of new customers. Quarterly recurring treatments: 90-day guarantee. Pests return inside the quarter, we come back free. One-time treatments: 60-day guarantee. Exclusion work: 1-year guarantee. No hard contracts required for any of it.
Call us. We pick up. If we miss you, voicemail is returned within 30-60 minutes, not hours. Form submissions get a response within 30 to 60 minutes. When your visit is booked, you get a 1-hour arrival window. Not a 4-hour one. Your technician texts on the way and calls when they’re close.
Interior treatment is not routine. Every visit starts outside, where pests enter. When interior work is needed, crack-and-crevice applications or desiccants are used, matched to the specific problem. Not a blanket treatment. Every product is Category III, the EPA’s lowest risk class. Treatments are kid and pet friendly. 

Pricing depends on the property, the pest, and the treatment plan.
