Oregon Residential Pest Control Services

Experiencing an Oregon residential pest control problem in your Oregon home or place of business is one of the more unnerving things you can experience. We know how important it is to maintain your space, keeping it safe and free of insects and rodents.

When we receive a call for our 24/7 residential Oregon exterminator service, we do four things

Inspect your home for telltale evidence of pests, and attempt to identify the source and reasons why they’re in your home
Perform an initial treatment to rid your home of any existing pests and establish barriers to prevent their re-entry
Offer advice on household changes that will reduce infestation without sprays or traps
Design a maintenance program for your home, sometimes involving follow-up appointments

There are a lot of big names in the pest control industry. Here are a few reasons why it makes sense to go with a local Oregon residential pest control services company like OIRC over the national brands

What Sets Us Apart

in the Oregon residential pest control services industry

Integrity

It would be easy to fool someone when delivering Oregon residential pest control services. Traps, bait, and sprays are often not visible to the consumer, and even if that’s not the case it can be difficult to be sure how well-laid they truly are. Beyond that, excuses for why initial attempts fail are easy to find, drawing property owners into spending more money to follow the advice of the “experts” who aren’t doing their job right. At Oregon Insect and Rodent Control, we only use brand-name products, and we use them according to their specifications for maximum effectiveness. We don’t cut any corners in our care for customers.

Honesty

Needless upselling is common practice by the giants of the pest control industry. Our founder Glenn experienced it firsthand, and it’s the major reason why he left to start his own company. We only sell products and services that we are confident are really going to be helpful. But we don’t expect you to simply take our word for it – we operate with as much transparency as possible so you can be assured that we are trustworthy. Our goal is to establish long-term relationships of trust with our customers, not get them to open their wallets out of desperation.

Education

Our process of pest control is more than laying bait and leaving. If we see a way that you can prevent pest problems from reoccurring or even handle your pest control problem on your own, we let you know, even when it means we won’t be able to charge as much. Education is a key part of the integrated pest management (IPM) approach, through which we can achieve better results in a more environmentally friendly way, as you can read about next.

Care for the Environment

At Oregon Insect and Rodent Control, we realize that this is the environment we will pass down to our kids. We live and work in Oregon, and have no national corporate protocol to inhibit our doing what’s right for the place in which we live. Our policy is to deal with your pest control problem using minimal chemicals, applied strategically for greatest results. The indoor environment matters, too. Where some companies will force you to watch out for your own welfare as they spray, we let you know the risks and take steps to minimize your family’s exposure to substances which might not be good for them.

Relationships

Our favorite thing about this industry is the relationships we form with customers as we help solve their pest management problems. If our customers need us again, we want to be the ones who come first to mind as the pest control experts to call. For those who experience regular invasions or want to prevent an incursion before it happens, we are happy to provide quarterly or bi-annual services. Note that we don’t do monthly service plans like a lot of the other guys – we find that charging for those extra visits isn’t necessary when we use pest control products according to their own recommendations

Experience

With over 18 years’ experience operating as an independent Oregon residential pest control services company, we’ve seen it all and know the products and methods to apply in order to effectively and quickly manage most any pest problem you might be experiencing.

Residential Insect Control Treatment Methods from OIRC

Oregon residential bug control treatment methods may involve one or more of the following:

Crack and Crevice Pesticide Treatment

Chemical materials are placed carefully in areas where the insects live and breed such as dark, enclosed areas within walls and under cabinets. Our process assures that there will be minimal exposure for children, food, and pets.

Direct Contact Application

Chemicals are directly applied to the insects, killing them and using those who are sprayed to kill others.

All-Bait Treatment

A unique service of Oregon Insect and Rodent Control is our all-bait treatment. No odor, no airborne particles. Call us today to learn more about this environmentally sound pest extermination service.

Insect Growth Regulators

These chemicals duplicate the insect’s natural hormones to disrupt their natural growth and development, preventing them from effectively breeding and spreading.

Oregon Insect and Rodent Control offers residential Oregon pest control services for mice and more

Oregon Residential Rodent Control

Controlling rodents such as mice, rats, moles, and voles can be tricky. After a thorough inspection to determine which species we’re dealing with, we’ll create an effective program to keep your home rodent-free by sealing entry points and exterminating the current population.

Ongoing Pest Control Maintenance for Homes

Season after season, your home will be exposed to different types of pests — roaches, ants, spiders, birds, and rodents will all be trying to make a home in yours. To make sure the pests you’ve so carefully controlled don’t return, you can contract for continuing regular pest control services. How often those services are rendered will depend upon your individual needs, but are usually either quarterly or bi-annually scheduled.

Oregon Pest Control Options for Different Species

We believe that education is one of the most powerful ways to prevent the infestation and spread of pests. Below you can learn more about different pest species, and how the Oregon exterminators at OIRC handle them.

Oregon Insect and Rodent Control offers all kinds of pest control services including ant extermination

Oregon Residential Ant Exterminator

One of the most common infesters in Oregon homes are ants. The internet is packed with ways to manage these pests, but effective application of these strategies often requires the know-how of a Oregon residential pest control services professional. As ant exterminators, we use a combination of preventative measures, sprays, and bait to manage your ant problem. Give us a call to set up a consultation.

Oregon Insect and Rodent Control offers all kinds of pest control services including bee extermination

Oregon Residential Bee Exterminator

Honeybees live in large colonies of mostly 20,000 to 80,000 female worker bees, hundreds of drones, and a single queen who regulates colony activity through pheromones. While many common bee species are peaceful unless provoked, they can be dangerous even when they are meant no harm. This is what makes us so nervous about bees, especially when you or someone you know has an allergy.

Oregon Insect and Rodent Control offers all kinds of pest control services including cockroach extermination

Oregon Residential Cockroach Exterminator

Cockroaches are one of the hardiest species on planet earth – scientists believe they have been around since the time T. Rex walked the earth. Not only have they survived, they have thrived in a wide variety of conditions, particularly those habitats that are warm and wet. No wonder they’re so difficult to get rid of. With over 4600 known species, cockroaches are related to termites biologically, but their behavior is different.

Oregon Insect and Rodent Control offers all kinds of pest control services including flea extermination

Oregon Residential Flea Exterminator

While fleas do not pose a health hazard for humans, they are a major nuisance, causing not only itchiness but just a generally creepy feeling.

Oregon Insect and Rodent Control offers all kinds of pest control services including spider extermination

Oregon Residential Spider Exterminator

Spiders are some of the most unnerving bugs to have in your house, hiding in corners and sometimes seeming freakishly large. But like all pests, they follow predictable patterns and can be managed with a strategic combination of removing their incentive to be in your space along with bait, traps, and sprays to control their populations. Whatever the spider situation you’re dealing with, we will help you manage it quickly and effectively.

Oregon Insect and Rodent Control offers all kinds of pest control services including termite extermination

Oregon Residential Termite Exterminator

We commonly deal with a couple different kinds of termites in our work as termite exterminators. Treatment methods for both varieties are similar to what we do for ants and other varieties of insect: use a combination of sprays and baits to manage termite populations.

Oregon Residential Wasp, Hornet, and Yellowjacket Exterminator

These insects are considered to be beneficial because they feed their young a wide variety of insects. They become a nuisance, however, when they build nests in or near structures and scavenge for food in recreational areas and in other places frequented by humans.

Oregon Residential Rodent Control

When it comes to rodents, we don’t mess around (not that we mess around with other pests, but you get our point). Many of our competitors will cut corners by only using a small portion of bait in traps – we pack them full with half a pound. We do what it takes to trap and remove mice, rats, moles, voles, and any other pests.

What are some ways to reduce the risk of developing an Oregon residential pest control problem?

Pest Control Tips from
Oregon Insect and Rodent Control

Keep them homeless
Reduce the available habitat within your home or place of business where a pest might want to set up a home of their own. This means keeping things clean and free especially of food particles.
Seal cracks and crevices
Pests come in from the outside environment, meaning you can reduce the chances of their taking up residence in your home by sealing up cracks and crevices, particularly around your foundation, eaves, doors, and windows.
Clean up
Get rid of stacks of newspaper, miscellaneous papers, bags, cardboard boxes, and other material which a pest might use to make a good home or nest. Wipe up spills and crumbs right away, and don’t leave dirty dishes lying around.
Keep a lid on it
Keep a tight lid on trashcans and empty them often, especially if you are throwing away fragrant or sweet things. When storing food in your pantry and cabinets, store it in tightly sealed containers.
Keep the space dry
Indoor pests often thrive on moisture. Keep them from getting the water they’re looking for by fixing leaks and not leaving dishwater in the sink overnight.

Can you help if I have a pest problem in my crawlspace?

We are able to perform crawlspace restoration at a reasonable price. If you’ve been quoted a price by one of the big pest control companies, make sure you talk to us before you sign anything, as they tend to charge quite a bit to get into those hard-to-reach places.

What products do you use?

We use a variety of excellent brand-name products which we have tested over the course of our 18 years in business, and we use them at label strength. We never use generic products that produce uncertain results.

Do you perform emergency services?

We can give you emergency advice and often get out to help you with your pest control problem within a day or two. Give us a call to set something up as soon as possible.

Do you have monthly service plans?

There are two reasons some Oregon residential pest control services companies have monthly service plans: a desire for a larger stream of income and the use of diluted or insufficient products. We find that when we do our job right, the most we need to visit one of our clients is once a quarter or bi-annually in the spring and fall.

Are your traps humane?

We do what it takes to remove pest control problems, and often that means killing them. Our traps do seek to cause minimal pain to pests as they dispatch them.
