I’m very happy with Thomas of Rigo performing my quarterly general pest control inspection and treatment. I find him very professional and courteous. The bugs might not like him, but I do.

Michael is always courteous and respectful. I appreciate his clear communication and follow through as well. I am especially appreciative of his suggestion to postpone mosquito treatment for a non rainy day, which meant another trip for him. He also sprayed all of my ants off cycle and I only mentioned it in passing. His customer service is why Rigo is rated #1.

My daughter was using Rigo and suggested we give them a try. We have been in our home about 15 years and haven’t used anyone else
General Pest Control FAQs. Tucson, AZ
Ant Control FAQs
Why does the ant species matter?
Southern Arizona has 25 to 30 ant species, and their nesting and feeding behavior can differ. A bait that works for one species or condition may not fit another. Identification helps the technician choose placement and materials that match the active colony.
How do technicians find an ant nest?
Technicians follow active trails, inspect entry points, and review nearby soil, landscape features, wall openings, or damaged wood. Ant movement often shows where workers are traveling between food and the nest. The findings guide bait placement and other targeted treatment.
Why can ant bait change during the year?
Ant colonies may shift between sugar, protein, and other food needs as conditions change. The technician considers species, feeding response, weather, and nest location when selecting bait. Monitor results and continued trails can lead to adjustments during follow-up service.
Do you treat ants indoors and outdoors?
Yes, the inspection covers interior activity, exterior trails, entry points, and likely nest sites. Interior placements focus on active routes and cracks, while exterior work follows trails toward the colony. The treatment plan depends on species and property conditions.
What is different about carpenter ant control?
Carpenter ants can use damp or damaged wood and may establish more than one nesting area. Inspection focuses on trails, moisture, wood conditions, and possible satellite nests. Treatment and correction recommendations are based on the locations and evidence found.
