Boxelder Bug & Fire Bug Control in North Salt Lake, Salt Lake City, and Davis County
About boxelder bugs
What Are Boxelder Bugs?
Boxelder Bugs are oval-shaped pests, about 1/2 inch long, with distinct black and red markings. These bugs are a common sight in Utah, especially near box elder trees and maple trees. Their eggs hatch into red nymphs during late spring and early summer, and they feed on seeds, leaves, and branches.
As temperatures drop, Boxelder Bugs migrate to sunny areas and warm spaces to hibernate. You’ll often find them on:
Windows
Porches
Door frames
Building siding
They squeeze through cracks and crevices to hide indoors and may become active on warm winter days. While Boxelder Bugs don’t bite or harm humans or pets, their droppings can stain walls and fabrics, making them a nuisance.
Fire Bugs in Utah
Fire Bugs, similar in appearance to Boxelder Bugs, are another common pest in Salt Lake City and Davis County. These bugs also thrive in sunny areas and can invade your property in large numbers. Although Fire Bugs are harmless, their presence can be overwhelming.

I moved into a house and upon first moving in, realized there was a major bug problem. It was very stressful and I was concerned it would be an ongoing problem. Called a few different pest control companies but Primo Pest stood out the most. Kyle came in and knew exactly how to mitigate the problem. After a few treatments the problem was fixed and there hasn’t been a problem since. Not only is he professional and knowledgeable, but he’s a very down to earth guy that I felt very comfortable having in my home. Also, love that he’s local to the salt lake valley. I highly recommend Primo Pest Solutions.
