Signs of rats and mice in a Salem home
A bump in the night could be the furnace. These are the signs our technicians look for to confirm rats or mice before any traps go down.
Droppings
Dark pellets along the garage wall, in the pantry, behind the stove or near the pet food bin.
Torn vent screens
Crawl space vents with pushed-in or chewed screens are the most common way in.
Runways in insulation
Flattened paths and nesting material in crawl space or attic insulation.
Noises at night
Scratching or running under floors, in walls or in the ceiling after dark.
Why rodent calls climb in the fall
In Interstate Pest Management records for new Oregon customers over the last five years, rats and mice were on 51% of first visits, more than any other pest. September through December brought 39% of the year’s new rodent customers, as fall rain and cold send rodents looking for dry crawl spaces, garages and attics. Rats and mice have also come up on more of our Salem visits in 2026 than any other pest.
Marion County Environmental Health’s rodent control advice comes down to three things: take away food, take away shelter and close the openings. We do the part that’s hard to do yourself, which is finding every gap in a crawl space and sealing it so it stays sealed.

When rodents send Oregon homeowners to the phone
Our records show the month each new Oregon customer first called us about rodents. Salem is our newest office, so these five years of records come mostly from the Portland area up the valley, on the same Willamette Valley seasons. Your plan visits are set ahead of those months, so rodents find a treated house when they arrive.
