Common calls
What Draper homes call about most
Local knowledge
Foothills and new neighborhoods
Draper stretches from the valley floor up onto the east bench below Corner Canyon and across to the Point of the Mountain. Foothill homes sit close to scrub oak, sagebrush and trails; lower neighborhoods are newer, with young lawns.
Foothill lots bring ticks, rock squirrels and wasps. Newer lawns next to open land bring gophers and voles, and every home sees spiders in window wells and mice in garages as fall arrives.
Our Redwood Road office covers Draper on regular routes.
Local conditions
Ticks on the foothills, gophers in new lawns
In Utah, the Rocky Mountain wood tick is the main tick on people and pets and can transmit Colorado tick fever; it's met most often from snowmelt through mid-July, which lines up with foothill trail season above Draper. Lower down, USU Extension notes that pocket gopher damage in urban areas is often greatest in new subdivisions next to undeveloped, weedy land, and gophers are born March to June, so spring brings fresh mounds.
Check kids and dogs after foothill walks, and flatten old gopher mounds so new ones stand out.
