Common Insects in the Utah Valley
- Ants: They enter your property in search of crumbs, spilled liquids, or unsealed food, building colonies in your walls, lawns, and cracks. To deter ants, you should seal entry points, store food in airtight containers, and clean up spills immediately.
- Spiders: Dark, undisturbed areas like basements and storage spaces are common hideouts for spiders. Regular cleaning, decluttering, and sealing gaps can reduce spider activity on your property.
- Cockroaches: They prefer warm, dark, and damp environments, which makes your kitchen, bathroom, and basement the ideal spots. You can discourage cockroaches by fixing leaky pipes, keeping trash sealed, and cleaning food residues regularly.
- Wasps: The abundance of blooming plants and sugary food sources makes Utah Valley a hotspot for wasps. They build nests on eaves, trees, or even inside wall voids. Regular inspections for nests and sealing potential entry points can help prevent wasps.
- Earwigs: With their preference for damp and shaded environments, earwigs are found in your lawn, flower bed, and basement. They are especially active at night and are drawn to decomposing plant matter. Proper yard maintenance is key in controlling earwigs.
- Boxelder bugs: To avoid infestations, remove debris near your foundation, seal gaps, and use proper window screens. Boxelder bugs become problematic in the fall when they enter your property to seek shelter from the cold.
- Mosquitoes: Removing standing water and maintaining proper drainage are vital preventive measures. Mosquitoes thrive in the warm summer months and can quickly multiply, becoming an annoyance for your family or customers.
- Termites: To minimize termite risks, property owners should repair water leaks, store firewood away from buildings, and schedule regular termite inspections.
- Carpenter ants: They hollow out your wood for nesting purposes, which can cause long-term structural problems. To prevent carpenter ants, keep your gutters clean and dry, fix any structural leaks, and remove rotting wood from your property.

Integrated Pest Management and Insect Control
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is not just an effective approach to insect control—it’s also one of the safest methods available for protecting people, pets, and landscaping. At Utah Pest, we use IPM to deliver results that prioritize the health of your home or business while minimizing the use of harsh chemicals. This method can give valuable peace of mind, especially for families with children, pet owners, and property managers aiming to preserve both indoor and outdoor environments.
IPM begins with a thorough property inspection to determine the type of insects present, the degree of infestation, and the underlying factors contributing to the problem. By addressing the root causes, such as food, water, and shelter sources, we work to prevent insects from returning. Physical solutions like sealing entryways and mechanical traps are often the first steps. Should chemical treatments be needed, we use them sparingly and with precision. For example, we utilize environmentally friendly products that are targeted to specific pests, reducing risks to people, animals, and plants.
Our thoughtful and calculated approach is designed to keep your lawn, garden, and landscaping healthy and undisturbed while still effectively managing the insects. Beneficial insects, like pollinators, are not harmed, preserving the natural balance of your environment. IPM provides a safe and sustainable solution for insect control, offering protection that extends beyond pests to safeguard the things you value most.
