Ants

Carpenter ants can do significant damage to your Central Oregon home. These little guys don’t actually eat any wood, but they will remove plenty in an attempt to build their home. They can get into decks and any other outdoor woodwork.

Odorous House Ants

These guys are out for your food. They’ll show up anytime something is left on the counter for too long. They don’t smell real great either. Probably because they’ve been eating rotten food.

Mice

Mice are like the rabbits of the pest world. They tend to multiply rapidly with litters of up to four of five. And little ones are born only nineteen to twenty-one days after mom and dad mate. They then become sexually mature after only six to ten weeks.

House mice tend to breed all year long having up to ten sets of offspring per year. They typically get into home by eating, jumping, or clawing their way in. Trapping them isn’t the best solution. We can help you eliminate the reasons for them entering your home in the first place.

Moles

Moles are very common here in Bend and in Central Oregon in general. They create various types of underground tunnels: some are just below the surface, and others are deep beneath the ground. Those just below the surface can be extended by as much as 100 ft per day by an industrious mole.

We find that trapping is the most effective way to eliminate mole problems, but it has to be done right. These little guys are smart and can set off traps without getting caught.

Rats

Here in Bend we’re blessed with the Wood Rat (Pack Rat), Norway Rat and Roof Rat. They all have distinct characteristics but they are all a nuisance. These guys can fit into openings as small as half a square inch. Along with mice, they can spread various forms of diseases by coming into direct contact with your food.

But far worse, their urine or feces can cause Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS). HPS is very dangerous and can be fatal. It is often transmitted when we breath air contaminated by feces and/or urine or items rats have touched or lived in.

Never or vacuum an area that is littered with mouse or rat droppings, as this may cause the virus to become airborne. Deer mice, with their white bellies and feet, are the main culprit, but to be safe you should avoid all wild rodents.
