The damage caused by termites is rarely obvious but can be devastating. Termite exterminators in Salt Lake City require an inspector to audit both the inside and outside of a building, a building’s foundations and basements or crawl spaces looking for termite activity. It’s best to have a termite inspection every few years, or right away if people in your community have reported termite problems.
The next step in Salt Lake City termite control is determining the best treatment. Termite management and treatment is not one size fits all. We will use liquid treatment, baiting treatment or a combination of both based on the situation.
Good termite treatments start with a good inspection.
We need to identify areas with activity, potential causes, and assess the best treatment strategies for the specific structure.
Liquid vs Baiting Termite Treatments
Liquid Pros and Cons:
LIQUID PROS:
- When applied correctly, they work really well to keep termites out
- Long lasting with many lasting up to 5 years
- Apply once and done
LIQUID CONS:
- Labor intensive
- Can require damage to some landscaping right around the structure
- Requires a lot of pesticides be placed around the structure
- Does not address termites in the surrounding area, just those that try to enter the structure
Baiting Pros and Cons:
BAITING PROS:
- Less labor intensive
- Less pesticides
- Can address and eliminate colonies of termites in surrounding areas
- Does not require trenching around the structure
BAITING CONS:
- Requires constant monitoring $$$
- Is not quite as fool proof as liquids in eliminating and preventing termites
- Slower to eliminate issues

Frequently Asked Questions
Though many have attempted DIY remedies for controlling termites, it’s always best to consult with an expert. Termites aren’t always visible, and the extent of the damage they’ve caused is rarely obvious. A true pest control specialist will be able to provide the insight you need to scale the damage, and make recommendations for mediation.
Treatment recommendations for termites depend on the structure and situation. There may not be a one-size-fits all treatment, but a quality liquid termiticide treatment applied correctly could be effective. Properly installed termite bait systems are also potential solutions for mitigating an infestation.
The pest control experts at Thorn can make recommendations for your home during your inspection and consultation.
Thorn pricing for termite control can vary depending on the type of structure and the extent of the infestation. Termite treatments are custom quoted after an inspection. If you need to have your home audited, the experts at Thorn are ready to help. Contact us for pricing today.
Wood sources, especially wet wood sources, are commonly the cause for termite infestations. If you have a chopped or decaying wood pile near your home, tree branches draping across your roof or siding, or thick wood mulch against your home’s foundation, you may accidentally be inviting termites to the party. Gutters and downspouts clogged with branches and leaves can even draw termites towards the home.
Additionally, termites are also drawn to nest in foam insulation, so if you find them beneath your siding, they may be burrowing towards the wood of your exterior walls. Our termite control experts can help you identify problem areas during a termite inspection.
