Local knowledge
Newer homes, open land nearby
Riverton has grown from a farm town into one of the south valley's busier suburbs, with many newer subdivisions west of Old Town and along the Mountain View Corridor, and the Jordan River on its east side.
New lawns next to fields and undeveloped land are prime gopher and vole territory. Homes near the river see mosquitoes in summer, and as fields dry in fall, mice head for garages.
Our Redwood Road office covers Riverton on regular routes.
Local conditions
Gophers in new lawns, mosquitoes by the river
USU Extension notes that pocket gopher damage in Utah's urban areas is often greatest in new subdivisions next to undeveloped, weedy land, and that young are born March to June, so spring brings fresh mounds. The river side matters too: Utah's first human West Nile case of 2025 was likely infected in late July near the Jordan River in the southern half of Salt Lake County, which is exactly where Riverton sits.
Treat the first mounds in spring, and dump standing water weekly in summer.
