Happy Valentines Day, everyone! Here at Saela, we hope you had a fun day filled with good food and good company!
Thank you all for making Saela what it is: a workplace filled with great people and a fantastic culture! Every year, the Salt Lake Tribune gathers information on local businesses and how well their employees rated working there. While Saela has been on this list in the past, we know that it’s only been possible because of the effort made by our employees to engage in love-based leadership, mentorship, and sustainability. This would not have been possible without you!

Saela has been named to the 2022 Top Workplaces in Utah! Every year, the Salt Lake Tribute conducts research and surveys to determine the best workplaces. Thank you to all who have made Saela what it is!
Ryan Riley, one of our Branch Managers, passed his certification as a Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) by the Entomological Society of America. We are very proud of the work Ryan did and the knowledge he gained to become a certified ACE. It means a lot to have nationally recognized, certified experts as part of Saela.
Saela means happiness in Old Norse. The 'a' and 'e' are joined to create the first letter of the word Happiness. We continue to ask ourselves, "Is our customer’s world better for having had you in it?” Did our customer have a better day because you were in it? Did you make them happy? Did they smile?” Happiness for both customers and employees are essential to reaching our goals. The culture at Saela will continue to lift and inspire as it did before, but the rebrand will help us achieve our company mission to be a long-lasting, profitable organization.
EDGE ANNOUNCES NEW NAME Pest control industry leader, Edge Pest Control, has announced its new name. Effective today, the company will be known as "Saela." This change comes as Saela looks toward the future, now more aligned with its mission and aspirations than ever before. This decision is not the result of a sale, merger, or change in ownership. Instead, it is a proactive choice born out of the desire to give the company a name that authentically portrays what it is and aspires to be. CEO Andrew Richardson and his team chose the name Saela which is an Old Norse word meaning "happiness." In Richardson's own words, "The name 'Edge' doesn’t give us the runway we need to provide our customers and employees with the best experience possible. So, we are changing it to something that does. We’re still us, simply better. We are doubling down on what we value most and will continue to prioritize those values as we change our name and continue evolving." We can look forward to a fresh look, logo, website: saelapest.com, and an enhanced customer experience.

The Lens of Gratitude is a method of looking at people in the correct way to create relationships of empowerment. This mindset allows us to see others in a clear, more caring way. “The way that we choose to view other individuals has an impact on how that individual views us back.” -Andrew Richardson, CEO
We have been named by the Salt Lake Tribune as one of Utah’s top workplaces for 2021!
