Types of Termites
It is crucial to identify the correct type of termite you are dealing with. There are only two types of termites in Southern Utah:
Drywood Termites: These termites thrive in above-ground wood structures, such as timbers and furniture, without needing soil contact. Look out for signs like small mounds of frass and winged swarmers during warm weather.
Subterranean Termites: The most common and destructive termites in Southern Utah and the U.S., they live in underground colonies and require soil moisture. Indicators include mud tubes and visible wood damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many gophers might be in my yard?
Typically, a residential yard may have just one or two gophers, as they are territorial and solitary animals. However, because each gopher can create an extensive tunnel system, even a single gopher can cause significant damage to your landscape.
Will gophers go away on their own?
Gophers rarely leave an area on their own once they’ve established a tunnel system. As herbivores with a constant need to feed, they will continue to damage your plants and lawn until professional intervention removes them.
Are store-bought gopher control products effective?
While some store-bought products may provide temporary relief, they rarely address the entire gopher population or prevent reinfestation. Professional treatment from Shakespeare Pest Control offers more comprehensive and lasting results.
How quickly will I see results after gopher treatment?
Results vary depending on the method used. With our gassing technique, you may see results the same day. Baiting methods typically take a few days to a week before gopher activity ceases, as the bait needs time to work through the population.
