About Us

About Our Family Pest Control Company

Company founder, Brad Olsen started his pest control career over 21 years ago in Texas with a well-known nationwide company. After becoming disillusioned with some of the common industry practices that tended toward short-changing the customer, he set off to start doing business his way.

Urban Desert Pest Control was formed in 2015 with the intent of shaking up an overpriced industry focused on confusing sales gimmicks. In the initial year, Brad went door to door to build his customer base and personally treated every client while his wife Trista scheduled customers and managed the office.

Attention to detail coupled with a business paradigm focused on treating people with kindness and respect quickly earned Urban Desert a large and loyal customer base. Since that first year, with these core values at the foundation, the Urban Desert family has grown to include 20 great employees. With a caring professional staff on the frontlines and so many wonderful customers, Urban Desert has been able to offer the concept of customer-focused pest control to more Phoenix residents than ever before. At Urban Desert, we stand by our great results and if you are shopping for the best pest control service in Phoenix we would love the opportunity to earn your business.
