Our Three-Step Cricket Control Process

We want you to know exactly what to expect when you invite us to your home or business. Our 3-step process is the same clear framework we use for every pest, adapted specifically for crickets around structures in this area. Each visit is designed to find where crickets are coming from, target those areas safely, and help you prevent them from returning.

First, we start with a detailed inspection. Our team walks the exterior of your property and, when appropriate, checks key interior areas where crickets tend to hide. This typically includes foundations, entry doors, window frames, garages, basements, utility rooms, landscaping beds, and areas with outdoor lighting. During this step, we look for live cricket activity, droppings, harborage spots, and gaps or cracks that may be letting pests inside.

Next, we perform targeted treatment using EPA-approved products that are selected with children and pets in mind. We focus on the areas where crickets live and travel, such as foundation lines, entry points, expansion joints, and problem spots identified during inspection. When needed, we can also treat certain interior areas, such as unfinished basements or storage rooms, and we always explain what we are doing and why before we start.

Our approach follows integrated pest management (IPM) principles, which means we combine product applications with practical recommendations for habitat reduction and exclusion. That may include suggestions about yard debris, vegetation touching the structure, or sealing small openings where crickets may be entering. The goal is to address both the current population and the conditions that support their thriving.

Finally, we close each service with clear education and a plan. We walk you through what we found, what we treated, and what results you can expect in the coming days. If we recommend recurring visits, we explain how often they are useful and what each visit includes, so you can choose a plan that fits your situation.

A typical cricket service visit from our team may include:

• Inspection of foundations, doors, garages, and likely cricket hotspots
• Exterior treatments at key entry points and harborages using EPA-approved products
• Interior spot treatments in problem areas when appropriate and requested
• Recommendations for sealing gaps, adjusting lighting, or reducing clutter
• Discussion of follow-up options and what to watch for between visits

If crickets remain active between scheduled services, our satisfaction guarantee means we will return to re-treat at no additional charge. Our goal is to make it as simple and low-stress as possible to keep this pest under control.

Why Crickets Are A Growing Problem

Crickets are common in Utah, and local properties often feel their impact late in the summer and into fall. Warm days, cool nights, and outdoor lighting can draw crickets toward buildings, where they gather around foundations, sidewalks, and garage doors. Once they find small gaps or open doors, they can end up inside basements, storage rooms, and office spaces.

At first, you might notice only a few chirps outside at night. As populations build, the sound can become a constant background that makes it difficult to fall asleep. For businesses that operate early or late, employees and customers may notice crickets hopping near entrances, restrooms, break areas, or warehouse doors, which can affect how people feel in your space.

Noise is not the only issue. Crickets can chew on fabrics, cardboard, paper, and stored items, especially when they find cluttered or damp areas to hide. Over time, you may see damage to boxes in the garage, items in storage rooms, and even merchandise in commercial settings. In heavier infestations, droppings and dead insects can build up, creating odor and additional cleaning work.

Because crickets tend to return each year when conditions are right, many property owners find that do-it-yourself sprays provide only short-term relief. Controlling them effectively usually requires a combination of inspection, targeted treatments, and changes around the structure. That is exactly what our team focuses on when we design a plan for your property.

Ongoing Protection For Homes & Businesses

Crickets tend to return as seasons change, especially when properties offer shelter, moisture, and light that attract them. One treatment can significantly reduce an active infestation, but many property owners prefer ongoing service to stay ahead of the next wave. That is where our flexible preventative plans come in.

For homes, recurring treatments can help protect foundations, landscaping, and entryways, making it harder for crickets to settle near the structure. Regular service also allows us to monitor other pests, such as ants and spiders, and make adjustments before issues grow. Many families choose quarterly service to maintain a comfortable, low-pest environment year-round.

For commercial properties, ongoing protection is often even more important. A preschool, restaurant, church, office, or warehouse may face reputational issues if customers or staff frequently see crickets in entryways, restrooms, or product storage areas. Whether you manage a single storefront or a larger facility, we work with you to schedule treatments at convenient times and to minimize disruption to operations.

We also offer monthly options for locations with higher pest pressure or specific regulatory needs. Our team explains the differences between plan types, helps you weigh cost and coverage, and adjusts the service scope to fit your building layout and risk level. The goal is long-term comfort and protection, not one-time quick fixes.
