Hi, I'm Norm, the president of this family-run business called Norm's Bug & Bee Control. I've been in pest control for over 18 years focusing mostly on Arizona's East Valley.

I believe we've been successful because of being service oriented, and providing a personal touch that can come with remaining small and family run. We appreciate that much of our business comes from referrals and understand the importance of working hard to keep this referral network of customers satisfied with our performance. 

Our Residential Maintenance Service does not require a contract and we also offer  specialized services such as bee removal, nighttime blacklight scorpion service and German cockroach service .

Over 15 years ago when the Africanized 'killer' bees first hit the Phoenix area, I had the good fortune to get trained by Dr. Steve Thoenes, original president of Bee Master, Inc. Dr. Steve was one of the original entomologists that tracked the Africanized bees through South and Central America as these bees traveled their way gradually to the U.S.

He developed the successful bee swarm trap system and its pheromone lure  which I helped him introduce to the Phoenix area. Our services were contracted by the city of Scottsdale for their first 3 years of having a bee control program when they were getting hit hard by the initial invasion of these Afircanized 'killer' bees. We also maintained an experimental swarm trap system at Papago park for the City of Tempe for several years. There was a lot of the-sky-is-falling-type fear of the 'killer' bees in those early days. Fortunately we've gotten past that.

Some of you interested in reading this page may wander what's so special about the so-called German Cockroach. You would be forgiven if you thought that this might be some sort of ethnic joke done in bad taste but the fact is identifying cockroaches by the names of countries is the way it is done. The reasons are not clearly defined but more or less relates to their point of origin or would that be their point of discovery as a problem species?

Unfortunately those people who have a German Cockroach problem gradually discover that this is no ordinary cockroach problem and wish it were just a bad ethnic joke. Our challenge at Norm's Bug & Bee is to convince these unhappy but potential customers that we can help. We guarantee it.

Regardless of your pest control needs, we look forward to hearing from you and being of help.

Over 5 years ago we expanded into the pool business. We offer pool repairs and weekly pool service.
