Foundational Power-Spray
We power-spray 6-10 gallons of the highest commercial grade organic-based products along your foundation. We also treat your eaves, bushes, trees, property line and kids playsets. This 6 foot barrier stops any pest from coming into any entrance of your home.


Lawn Granulation 
We granulate your lawn for grubs, ants, earwigs, crickets and all sorts of other turf pests. With each service, we include baiting ant mounds individually along with the occasional snails, crickets, and earwigs eating up your garden. 


Eave Treatment
We have extension poles that reach 20-25 feet. We can reach your second story eaves to remove wasp nests, spider webs, hornets nest, and mud daubers. We also power-spray troubled areas with the products so the pests won't return. 

Rodent Bait Application
Each service includes the treatment for rodents, if there are signs of any. We cover rats, mice, gophers, and voles. We use commercial grade bait or traps for every rodent problem.




Interior Flush-Out
The inside is a great way to eliminate pests from the inside out. We do this by treating baseboards, garage, windows, doors, and any wall voids that could be a potential threat for unwelcome invaders

Tis The Season

Did you know that September through April are the heaviest months when gophers, voles, mice, and rats are actively burrowing and trying to seek shelter (i.e. your home)? These particular pests don't hibernate in the winter like spiders do. They are a year round nuisance.


Below are some field mice that have had a bit too much bait to snack on this holiday season. As well as a freshly made gopher mound creeping up to eat the roots of a willow tree across the way. Fortunately our exclusion techniques on the exterior of homes and our mice/rat bait boxes make the winter season much more enjoyable by being rodent free!

The Northern Pocket Gophers

Picture
Utah has two species of Pocket Gophers, the Northern Pocket Gopher and the Botta (southern and central Utah) Gopher. Gophers have a poor vision which is compensated by other senses such as hearing, smell, and touch. 

Gopher damage can be identified mostly by the soil mounds they leave behind as evidence of the tunneling system under your yard. The mounds are shaped like a semi-circle and the entrance is sealed with a soil plug. The tunnels below the surface range from 4-18 inches deep and they are interconnected. The damage caused by a single Pocket Gopher can be enormous. A single gopher will create 300 mounds in their lifetime, moving 4 tons of soil from location to location. 

Gophers are active year round. In the winter months they tunnel through the snow. They eat only plant materials such as grass & Alfalfa. Dandelion roots are especially their favorite snack. 

The Utah State University's Plant Pest Diagnostic lab gives some excellent tips that home owners can do to protect their yard from gophers:
  • Remove all Alfalfa and Dandelion roots from your yard. Taking away the food supply will minimize the amount of gopher population. 
  • Place a mesh (1/4-1/2 inch) fence buried 18 inches below the surface around your gardens to protect your flowers. 
  • Rotating crops with a grain crop on the perimeter of the home. The roots from the grain crops will not produce suffecient food supplies for gophers to survive year round. 
  • Flooding the gopher mounds will drown them underneath the surface. 
  • Strychnine Alkaloid bait application from a qualified licensed techninican. (We use this product!!)
