Lehi is the epicenter of Utah County’s tech boom — and its explosive growth defines the city’s pest environment. From the historic homes near Main Street to the new subdivisions spreading across the west side to the towering office parks of the Silicon Slopes corridor, Lehi is a city in constant transformation. Every new foundation poured disturbs the native soil and displaces ant colonies, rodent burrows, and spider habitats. The Jordan River corridor brings persistent rodent pressure. The restaurants and food service in the tech campuses create cockroach attractants. And the constant construction means pest populations are always being displaced into established neighborhoods. Serve Pest Control has been treating Lehi homes and businesses throughout this growth. We know the historic downtown homes, the Thanksgiving Point area, the new developments west of I-15, and the tech corridor. Every property gets a plan that matches its specific location and pest pressure.
Process for Lehi Homes & Businesses
We sweep out and knock down any honeycombs and cobwebs in the eaves up to 35 ft.
We treat every entry point of the home on the ground level including doors, windows, and the garage.
Also known as the “crack and crevice” treatment. Our power sprayer will seal up any open spaces along the foundation of the home, giving pests no chance of entering the home from the ground.
Our technicians will walk around the perimeter of your home, spreading a granule that will sink deep into the soil, providing a 15ft barrier from the foundation into the yard.
Every house is different. If you have pests in a strange area on your property, let us know and we will service the requested area.
We won't just protect your house, we'll protect your property by setting a fence line perimeter.
Our Lehi service starts with understanding which Lehi your property is in. Historic homes near Main Street get foundation evaluation and crawl space attention. New subdivisions on the west side get soil-displacement pest management starting from move-in day. Tech corridor commercial properties get discreet, after-hours service with health department compliance. Homes near the Jordan River get year-round rodent bait stations. Apartments and townhomes near the office parks get shared-wall pest management. We serve all of Lehi — residential and commercial — with the same thorough approach. Every service includes inspection, treatment, and clear recommendations.
Pavement ants and thatching ants are the most common ant species across Lehi. Thatching ants are especially problematic in the new subdivisions on the west side built on former agricultural land. Granular baits and perimeter sprays provide effective control citywide.
Black widow spiders are very common throughout Lehi — in historic homes, new construction garages, and landscaping rock across the entire city. Hobo spiders enter at ground level. Sealing foundation gaps and regular web removal are essential preventive measures across all of Lehi’s diverse neighborhoods.
German cockroaches are a significant concern in Lehi’s multi-unit housing and especially in the restaurant and food service businesses along the tech corridor. The density of commercial kitchens in the office parks creates cockroach pressure that affects adjacent residential areas. Coordinated building-wide treatment is essential for multi-unit properties.
Norway rats from the Jordan River corridor and field mice from the remaining agricultural land on the west side are both significant issues. The massive construction activity displaces additional rodent populations into established neighborhoods. Fall exclusion is critical for every Lehi property regardless of location.
Subterranean termites are present in Lehi at moderate levels. Older homes near downtown with wood-to-ground contact and newer homes on the east bench near the Point of the Mountain are at increased risk. Annual inspections are recommended.
Bed bugs in Lehi are a significant concern given the tech corridor’s business travel and the density of multi-unit housing. Hotels and corporate housing along the I-15 corridor see frequent introductions. We offer K-9 detection for larger properties and fast heat treatment for confirmed cases.
Lehi has changed more in the last decade than most cities change in a century, and we’ve been here for every phase. We’ve treated the historic homes that have stood on Main Street since the 1800s. We’ve been the first pest control company called by families moving into brand-new subdivisions on the west side. We’ve helped tech companies keep their offices and cafeterias pest-free.
What makes Lehi unique is the sheer pace of change. New construction is happening everywhere, and every new development displaces pest populations into the surrounding area. Established neighborhoods feel the pressure. The food service in the tech corridor attracts cockroaches and rodents. The Jordan River keeps rodent pressure constant on the east side.
Our Lehi clients appreciate that we understand this environment. We know that a home near the tech campus needs different attention than one on the west side. We adjust our approach accordingly.
Lehi is the heart of Utah County’s future, and we’re proud to be part of it.
