Whether you need a termite inspection and report because you are buying or selling your home or property and want to make sure there are no termites silently eating the structure or you suspect you have termites, we are here to help.
Damaged Wood
Termites love wood! Subterranean termites prefer to eat slash pine, loblolly pine, sugar maple, and the soft layers of Springwood.
Tunnels Through Wood
As termites are eating their way through wood, they create tunnels and passages throughout.
Mud Tunnels
Subterranean termites create mud tunnels from the wood they have eaten through. These tunnels protect them while they travel from their nest to food sources.
Clusters of Termites
Termite colonies can contain 60,000 to 1 million termites! Winged termites, like the ones pictured here, are called swarmers which fly out of the nest to mate.

Termite Inspection and Report Services in Salt Lake City, UT
Termite inspections in Salt Lake City, UT require an inspector to audit both indoors and out, all around the foundation of a building, and inside the basements and crawl spaces. Thorn’s termite inspectors will look for termite activity on the structure of the home or building, and provide a detailed report to present the findings of the audit.
Termite Inspection Experts
Thorn professionals take pride in their work and therefore they take inspections very seriously. Asking ourselves the right questions helps us get in the mindset of a thorough inspection:
Where are they coming from?
How did they get in?
Where is their food source?
Once we’ve gained the answers to these questions we will create a treatment plan. We will look at every possible angle of the problem to ensure treatment is effective.
Signs of Damage
When inspecting for termites we look for mud tunnels or mud tubes. Subterranean termites are known for making this kind of damage in wood. Mud tunnels are a good indication of an active termite infestation.
Building Exterior
A thorough inspection of the exterior of the building is a must when dealing with termites. We will look for possible entry points into the structure and for any activity from the termites. An important part of the exterior inspection is checking the foundation for activity as well.
Termite Inspection Report
After the inspection (in about 24-48 hrs) you will receive a detailed inspection report. The inspector will fill out an official form called NPMA-33 from the National Pest Management Association. The report will detail whether there is no evidence, past evidence, or present evidence of termite damage. This report will also include corrective actions that are recommended by the inspector.
Let's get rid of those pests.

Termite inspections aren’t uncommon in Utah and other areas where subterranean and dry wood termites reign. Inspections commonly take place when a home is going to be bought or sold, or when there’s evidence of potential damage.
It’s best to have a termite inspection every few years, especially if you live in an area where you know they’re rampant, or when other homeowners or business owners in your community are experiencing issues. If you can spot damage early, you’re likely to save yourself thousands of dollars in repair costs.
