Average Cost for Residential Pest Control

The average cost for residential pest control varies based on location, pest types, home size, provider, and more. However, it’s a great idea to gather a few statistics to understand a ballpark cost for your budgeting processes.

HomeAdvisor reports that the average single pest control visit costs between $300 and $550. A single visit requires diagnosis, creation of a treatment plan and the treatment itself. On the other hand, when you set up preventative initial visits and periodic treatments, the average initial visit costs $150-$300 while maintenance visits usually average $40-$70.

While these baseline costs are helpful, it’s important to remember that a wide range of factors can contribute to a different price range altogether. For example, larger houses will require a larger investment to treat. Treating for termites averages $2,000-$8,000, while ant control averages just $60-$125.

Many pest control professionals offer programs that protect you from many pests on an ongoing basis and simply charge a monthly fee. When you work with Thorn for your pest control needs, the team will create a fully customized plan to rid your home of pests. Costs can vary for single visits.

To protect your home from pests year-round, you can choose the commercial-grade monthly plan, which starts from $34 per month.

Thorn Pest Solutions average cost for residential pest control services in Utah. Why Pay for Professional Pest Control?

It’s natural to prefer to spend your hard-earned money on things besides pest control. Plus, there are so many products on the shelves of any home improvement store that promise they can get rid of your pest problem. However, professional pest control is worth the investment.

Expert inspection

One of the downfalls of store-bought pest control products is that most of them are created for a specific type of pest. For example, you may buy a product that works great against pavement ants, but if you’ve got carpenter ants in your home, this product may not be very helpful. Without the expertise to accurately diagnose the pests and find their access points, it’s very unlikely that DIY methods will be effective. Through a thorough expert inspection, Thorn identifies the exact type of pests you’re up against, finds entry points, and creates a customized plan for protecting your home.

Ongoing upkeep
