About Thorn
Your home should be a safe space - a place full of ease, tranquility, and predictability. Encountering pests within your house can feel incredibly jarring. Whether it's a trail of ants or a family of mice, finding pests in your space feels like an invasion. The stress and fear resulting from an encounter with a pest is the last thing you want to feel in your home.
Maintain a pest-free home and business with pest control in Salt Lake County, UT.
In addition to the shock of finding pests in your home, there's the stress that comes from the potential health and property damage risks associated with some pests. For business owners and managers, maintaining a pest-free space is crucial to maintain your staff's safety and to uphold your reputation with customers.
To avoid bites, stings, diseases, and irreversible property damage, working with a professional exterminator in Salt Lake County, UT, is crucial. While going the DIY route may look financially attractive at first glance, it's essential to consider the most common experiences and outcomes. Unfortunately, most pest control products found in a home improvement store will either not address the specific species of pest in your home or will pose even more health risks to your family and pets.

Common pests we treat
Spiders

The fear of spiders is a natural and common phenomenon. While most species of spiders are beneficial in controlling the insect population, encountering an excessive number of spiders or discovering harmful spiders in a home or business can cause understandable fear and discomfort and send you looking for a spider exterminator in Salt Lake County.
While most spider species are harmless, black widows and brown recluses can pose serious health risks, especially to young children, older adults, and pets. Living in fear of coming across a spider can quickly ruin the feeling of peace in your home. For some businesses, an abundance of spiders has the potential to harm your reputation for good: no one wants to see a spider when they're trying to enjoy a meal, see a doctor, or have a meeting with their accountant.
Whether you're seeing too many spiders in your home or business or you're simply aware of your family's high level of discomfort with these common pests, Thorn, the leading spider exterminator in Salt Lake County, can help. Using methods backed by biology and formulas prioritizing your health and safety, Thorn can rid your home or business of spiders for good. Skip the frustrating DIY attempts and the risky hardware store sprays — our trained and vetted pest professionals will free your mind from the stress and anxiety of living with spiders.
Ants

The frustration and shame of discovering an ant infestation inside your home, restaurant, or place of business can be overwhelming. While it's easy to assume that ant infestations only occur in unclean homes or dirty kitchens, the reality is that ants are easy to attract. Ants search tirelessly for food sources, and they can fit through tiny cracks, which means that the smallest spills and the littlest crumbs can still lead to a persistent ant presence and a need for ant control in Salt Lake County.
Getting rid of ants is more easily said than done. While finding supplies at hardware stores that claim to get rid of ants is simple, finding the ones that align with the type of ant you're dealing with is more complex. Ant behavior varies from species to species, and understanding interactions with a nest is the first step to treating an ant infestation. That's why there are multiple Associate Certified Entomologists on staff at Thorn. By identifying precise species and leveraging biology-backed treatment plans, Thorn provides the most reliable ant control in Salt Lake County.
Thorn inspections help provide the context for targeted treatment by identifying entry points and thoroughly inspecting all plants and food storage measures. Then, our trained and vetted pest professionals get to work restoring your home or business to being pest-free so you can be stress-free.
Mosquitoes

Few things ruin a cookout more quickly than a swarm of mosquitoes descending on your yard. Whether your backyard dreams involve hosting barbecues or simply taking in the dusk and dawn on the patio with a beverage, swatting away mosquitoes is an unwelcome interruption. While candles, sprays, and other DIY solutions might provide a bit of relief, mosquito control in Salt Lake County is the only way to keep yourself from getting covered in itchy bites at the end of the evening.
Mosquitoes aren't only annoying — they're also dangerous. Because they can carry malaria, West Nile Virus, Zika, dengue fever, and various other viruses, mosquitoes are the world's deadliest creatures, according to the World Health Organization. They are estimated to cause over 750,000 human deaths every year. Even when they aren't carrying alarming viruses, mosquito bites can cause swelling and itching that leads to days of discomfort.
Take back control of your yard with Thorn 's reliable mosquito control in Salt Lake County. Instead of playing guessing games with your health and home, Thorn leverages an approach backed by biology and scientific research. With a thorough understanding of mosquito behavior and biology, the pest professionals at Thorn can rid your yard of these biting insects for good.
Wasps

Warmer months bring countless joys, from family time in the backyard to cookouts with friends. However, in many areas, warmer weather also means battling with wasps. These insects are pollinators and certainly have their place in the ecosystem — but it's perfectly normal to prefer that their space doesn't overlap with yours! That's why we offer wasp control in Salt Lake County.
Because wasps are more likely to sting than bees and can sting multiple times, many people harbor a healthy fear of these creatures. What's more, individuals who are allergic to wasp stings can face life-threatening consequences if they are stung.
In many cases, locating a wasp nest after discovering an overabundance of them on your property is a challenge. There are more than 100,000 species of wasps worldwide, and every species has its own habits when it comes to nesting. Some wasps will build a hanging nest, while others will nest in the eaves of houses or on the ground in woodpiles. This vast range of possibilities makes it all the more important to work with science-backed methods for wasp control in Salt Lake County.
The pest professionals at Thorn leverage an approach rooted in biology. With multiple Associate Certified Entomologists on staff, Thorn can accurately identify and safely address wasp infestations, regardless of the species and circumstances.
Bed Bugs

Waking up to discover evidence of bed bugs in your home is the last way you want to start your day. These nasty creatures know how to stay out of sight so they can return night after night to continue feeding on your blood — a true nightmare. Bed bugs leave behind bites that are often itchy and painful and sometimes even require medical attention.
Beyond the physical health risks of bed bugs, the mental torment of knowing your bed isn't truly safe and subsequently losing sleep and a sense of peace can negatively affect mental health. Bed bugs are experts at spreading, so once they've found their way into your home, keeping them from occupying every bed without professional bed bug control in Salt Lake County is difficult. For those in the hospitality industry, discovering a bed bug presence in a hotel or hostel requires immediate professional attention.
Bed bugs are persistent — it's not easy to find and kill them. The best way to preserve your property, your sleep, and your family's overall health is to seek out the science-backed bed bug control in Salt Lake County from Thorn. Our pest professionals know how to target specific bed bug species with methods rooted in biology. Through science, we'll restore your home and bed to the safe space it should always be.
Rodents

Whether you're hearing the shuffling, squeaking evidence of mice in your home or finding signs of rodents in your yard and garden, you're likely sharing food with furry little invaders. Without rodent control in Salt Lake County, even the smallest mice can cause devastating property damage by chewing through cables, wires, drywall, wood, and more. In addition, rodents are known disease carriers, causing numerous cases of hantavirus, salmonellosis and more every year.
In many households, individuals with allergies suffer most from rodent infestations. The fur and droppings they leave behind can have severe health impacts for those with allergies, even leading to asthma and hay fever in extreme cases. Moreover, mice can chew through plastic or paper bags to access a food source, quickly ruining what's in your pantry and kitchen.
Getting rid of mice and rats is not as easy as setting a trap and waiting. Many mice are smarter than this, and there is likely more than one creature taking up residence in your home. Using modern technology and a wealth of scientific knowledge, Thorn provides rodent control in Salt Lake County that you can rely on. By combining biological understandings of rodent behavior with new path-tracking technology, the pest professionals at Thorn can quickly target rodent populations within your home and property.
