Oregon City Pest Control & Exterminator Services

Q: Why do older Oregon City homes get so many rats and mice?

Many homes near downtown and in the McLoughlin and Canemah neighborhoods are over 100 years old. Old foundations, crawlspace vents and gaps around pipes are easy ways in, and the rivers keep plenty of rats close by. We find the gaps and seal them, then trap what’s already inside.

Q: Is your service safe for my pets?

Yes. Pet and family safety are built into the products, methods, and service structure.

Q: Do I need an exterminator or a pest control plan?

Usually both. The first visit clears out what’s there now. A plan keeps them from coming back, and if pests show up between visits, we come back free.

Old homes by the falls. New homes up the hill. Pests like both.

We love Oregon City. The falls, the old homes on the bluff, the elevator ride up from Main Street. Unfortunately, pests love it too. Rats live along the rivers, carpenter ants move in from the canyons, and mice head for your garage every fall. We help Oregon City families get pest-free and stay that way.

A great place to live. Even better pest-free.

Pests don’t just bug you. They get in your food, chew your wiring and keep you up at night listening to the ceiling.

We cover Oregon City and the towns around it, including West Linn, Gladstone, Canby, Happy Valley and Clackamas. Down by the river or up in Park Place, we look at your place first. Then we fix the problem without treating every home the same.

Common local pests

The pests Oregon City families deal with most

Rats, mice and carpenter ants keep us busiest here. Two rivers meet at Oregon City, and rats live along both banks. The wooded canyons, like Newell Creek, are full of carpenter ants. And when the fall rain starts, mice leave the fields up the hill and look for a warm garage.

Ants

Carpenter ants come out of the wooded canyons and move into damp wood around decks and windows.

Moles & Gophers

Your yard shouldn’t look like Swiss cheese. Wet Oregon City lawns are mole heaven.

Spiders

Giant house spiders show up every September. We keep them outside.

Wasps

By August the yellowjackets get bold. Let us do the part that involves getting stung.

Cockroach

German roaches travel between apartments through walls and pipes (it’s never just 1).

Fleas

They ride in on pets, raccoons and possums under the house.

Bed Bugs

Mattress seams, couches and baseboards. Every room they’ve reached gets treated.

Rodents

Rats live along the Willamette and Clackamas, then move into old crawlspaces. We seal them out, not just trap them.

Why Bug Zapper

Local pest story

Where two rivers meet, rats aren't far behind.

Oregon City sits where the Clackamas River meets the Willamette, right below the falls. Rivers mean water, food and cover, and rats use the banks like a highway. Many homes near downtown and on the bluff are over 100 years old. Old foundations and crawlspace vents give rats plenty of ways in.

Up the hill, newer neighborhoods back onto woods and open fields. When the fall rain starts, mice move out of the fields and into garages. So we look at what’s around your home first: the river, the trees, the fields and how your home is built. Then we treat the spots that matter, not the whole block.
