Why Aurora Homeowners Choose Interstate
Aurora sits at the edge of the northern Willamette Valley, bordered by active farmland, rural green corridors, and the Willamette River to the west. That geography creates a unique pest challenge: Aurora homeowners face pressure from both agricultural pests moving in from surrounding fields and the same moisture-driven pests common throughout the Salem area.

New customers typically scheduled within 1–3 business days. Same-day available for urgent situations.
Four generations. 60+ years in the Pacific Northwest. We know the northern Willamette Valley because we serve it every day.

Aurora’s Most Common Pests
Aurora’s position between Salem and Portland — surrounded by farmland, nurseries, and the Willamette River corridor — creates higher-than-average pest pressure for a small community. Here are the pests we treat most frequently in Aurora homes:
Carpenter Ants
Carpenter ants are the #1 pest call we get across the Willamette Valley. Aurora’s older residential structures and proximity to wooded and agricultural land mean moisture-damaged wood is common — exactly what carpenter ants seek for nesting. Early treatment prevents serious structural damage.
Odorous House Ants
These small brown ants are extremely common in Aurora kitchens and bathrooms, especially after rain drives them indoors. They form massive colonies and are notoriously difficult to eliminate with store-bought products alone.
Rodents
Aurora’s agricultural surroundings make rodent pressure higher than in purely residential communities. Rats and mice migrate from adjacent fields and farm structures into homes — particularly in fall when temperatures drop. Our rodent services combine trapping, monitoring, and habitat modification to address the problem at the source.
Spiders
Aurora is home to giant house spiders, hobo spiders, and yellow sac spiders. Their presence indoors is often a sign of other pest activity they’re feeding on. We treat for spiders as part of our All Seasons quarterly program, keeping populations under control year-round.
Yellow Jackets & Wasps
Stinging insects peak in late summer across Aurora. Yellow jackets become aggressive in August and September, frequently building nests in eaves, wall voids, and underground — especially in homes near open fields and tree lines where foraging activity is highest.
Not sure what you’re dealing with?
Most Aurora homeowners get a same-week inspection. We’ll tell you exactly what’s there — and what it’ll take to fix it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Aurora’s location between farmland and the Willamette River creates above-average pest pressure. Carpenter ants, odorous house ants, rodents, and spiders are the most common calls we receive. Rodent pressure is particularly high due to the surrounding agricultural land — rats and mice migrate from adjacent fields into homes, especially in fall.
Pricing depends on the pest and property size. Our All Seasons Pest Plan starts at $39/month and covers general pests like ants, spiders, and wasps with four scheduled visits per year plus free re-service between visits. Our All Seasons Pest & Rodent Plan starts at $47/month and adds ongoing rodent monitoring and control. Physical exclusion work is quoted separately after inspection — we’ll give you a clear price before anything starts. No surprises.
Yes. We follow Integrated Pest Management (IPM) protocols, which prioritize prevention and use the least-toxic effective treatments available. All products are applied by licensed technicians and are safe for your family and pets when dry. We’ll walk you through any precautions before and after treatment.
We typically schedule within 1–3 business days for new customers. For urgent situations — active wasp nests, rodent infestations, bed bug concerns — we do our best to accommodate same-day or next-day service. Call us at (503) 461-0259 for availability.
Yes — we service all of Aurora and the surrounding communities including Hubbard, Woodburn, Donald, and Canby. Our Salem office handles all service calls in the northern Willamette Valley.
A one-time treatment addresses the current infestation. A quarterly plan (our All Seasons service) prevents new ones from developing by treating your home at four key points in the pest cycle. For Aurora homeowners near farmland, a quarterly plan is especially valuable — new pest pressure arrives with every season.
