Why Choose Thorn
Residential pest control in Utah requires a specific approach, and we are here to provide expert answers for your home. With more than 14 years of experience, we know which pests may be infesting your property, and can create a targeted strategy to abate the issue.
1
Inspection & Assessment
Every service starts with an inspection to identify pest activity and pest vulnerable areas. Every home is different and requires a specific strategy to get the best results. During the inspection a Thorn expert will identify active infestations, pest entry points, areas where pests are most likely to occur, and make an assessment as what treatments are necessary to get the best results. We don’t simply “spray” the baseboards.
2
Spider Web and Wasp Nest Removal
Removing spider webs helps in control by getting spiders moving so they run into our materials. Removing wasp nests is an important part of their control. We try and remove all webs and nests on the 1st and 2nd story of homes up to about 18 ft.
3
Apply Pest Barriers
Our pest professionals will determine the best materials for your home and apply preventive treatments to protect your home against pests. Preventive treatments include treatment around windows, doors, and other pest entry points.
4
Utilize Baits
When needed our pest control professionals will apply granular baits. Baits are extremely low-risk and highly effective against ants, crickets, cockroaches and snails.
5
Apply Long Lasting Dusts
We don’t just “spray” for pests. We utilize the best materials for long term results. We apply long lasting dusts into exterior cracks and crevices where pests may hide or try to enter the home. These dusts often are effective for over year. When pests try to enter, we will be ready for them.
6
Treat Pest Conducive Conditions
To prevent interior pests, Thorn professionals look for and identify potential pest conducive conditions in your yard as well. We treat these areas when necessary to reduce pest pressure in and around your home. This leads to better results than simply focusing on the foundation.

Residential Termite Control in Utah
Someone put a lot of work into building your home. Don’t let termites tear it down.
Effective termite control begins with an inspection. An expert will check the inside and outside of your home, the foundation and any basements or crawl spaces. Termites can eat and tunnel their way through wood, leaving behind evidence of an infestation.
A colony can contain as many as one million termites. They can also fly out to mate, and then return to the nest. Their wood-eating habits make it crucial to stop them as soon as possible, and the size of the colony means that you’ll need help to get rid of them all.
Residential Wildlife Control
Residential pest control in Utah includes a multitude of animals that can decide to move out of the wild and into your home.
Squirrels can be destructive. Bats can carry rabies. Birds can make nests where they shouldn’t. Nature is going to be there, but your home is not the best place for creatures to settle in.
Experts can remove wildlife, and create an effective plan to keep them out. Every preventative step you take can go a long way to protecting your health and maintaining your property value.
Don’t wait until wildlife becomes a problem. Contact us to get started on a plan today!
What to Know About Residential Pest Control in Utah
A residential pest control plan from Thorn in Utah includes safe products and effective application methods. We use a science-based approach to investigate where pests are coming from, what attracts them to a home and which routes they take. We take the guesswork out of the equation so that you can regain your peace of mind and know that the job has been done safely and effectively.
Is Paying for Pest Control Worth It?
If left unchecked, insects and animals can destroy your home’s structure, damage your belongings and eat their way through your food supply — not to mention spreading dangerous diseases while doing it. A potential bite can land you in the hospital with a hefty medical bill.
Bed bugs, given enough time, can permanently damage belongings. Raccoons can decimate an attic. Termites can eat through walls, lowering your property value and requiring expensive repairs.
It’s better to stop the problem before it becomes a bigger, more expensive situation. Investing in residential pest control helps avoid costly repairs and endless trips to the store for pest products that don’t work and may actually be dangerous to your family.
Your home deserves to be a safe space, and knowing there are creepy crawlies hiding in the walls can keep you up at night. Call Thorn to learn more about our services and how we can help.
How Much is Residential Pest Control in Utah?
Cost for residential pest control in Utah depends on what pest needs to be abated, how large a home is and what it will take to remove an infestation. There are also one-time services that may be recommended, in addition to an ongoing protection plan. A termite inspection for most single-family homes is around $150, while commercial business inspections are typically billed per hour. The price of an inspection is dependent on many factors, such as the size of a building and how far the infestation has progressed.
The cost will also depend on what you want to get out of your pest control experience and what it will take to get you there. Quotes for a single service start at $129. If you want year-round protection, our HomeGuard pest control program includes tailor-made services you’ll receive once a season. Call us to learn more about our services, quotes, payment options and how we can help your home.
How Often Should Pest Control be Done?
Pest control has benefits that go far beyond what you can see. While not spotting mosquitos, spiders and cockroaches gives you peace of mind, you also need to pay attention to what is going on behind the walls.
Seeing a pest isn’t the first symptom of an infestation, but it’s likely the first that you’ll notice. Ongoing inspections and services will help you catch problems before they become more costly.
In addition to single services, we provide a quarterly plan to help keep pests out. You’ll receive a visit once a season, which will tailor a plan to match what your house needs at various times of the year. When spiders move inside during the fall, for example, we can help deter them from staying. Other services like termite inspections should be done every few years. If a house is going on the market, it should also be inspected.
Benefits of Professional Pest Control
Trying store-bought trap after trap and spray after spray quickly becomes expensive and unproductive. Plus, those consumer insecticides have dangerous ingredients that can hurt your family and pets. Professional residential pest control doesn’t always have a simple solution, because the reasons why pests are attracted to a home can be complex. Pest control goes beyond getting rid of the problem. It involves finding out why it was a problem to begin with, so that you don’t have to constantly worry about being reinfested.
We have the technology, the knowledge and the experience to know how pests operate and how to get rid of them. We can safely apply any products that are needed and talk you through preventative measures to keep your plan working strong.
