• ◆Gnaw marks – Chewed wires, wood framing, or food packaging typically indicating rodent activity.
• ◆Moisture damage – Soft or discolored wood near moisture sources can indicate moisture ant or termite activity.
• ◆Unusual odors – Musty smells from cockroach infestations or ammonia-like odors from rodent urine.
• ◆Live or dead pests – Seeing insects or rodents during daylight hours often indicates a larger population hiding nearby.
• ◆Shed wings or skins – Discarded termite swarmer wings near windows or shed cockroach exoskeletons indicate active infestations.

Early Detection Matters: If you notice any of these signs in your Forest Grove property, contact EcoGuard immediately. Early intervention prevents small problems from becoming major infestations and saves you time, money, and stress.

• ◆Control Moisture: Fix leaky pipes and faucets immediately, ensure proper drainage around foundations, and use a dehumidifier in crawl spaces and basements.
• ◆Seal Entry Points: Inspect your home's exterior and seal openings larger than a quarter-inch with caulk, steel wool, or hardware cloth.
• ◆Manage Vegetation: Keep trees and shrubs trimmed away from your home. Wet leaves and mulch against your foundation attract moisture-loving pests.
• ◆Store Firewood Away from the Home: Firewood stacked against the house provides ideal harborage for carpenter ants, moisture ants, and rodents. Store wood at least 20 feet away.
• ◆Store Food Properly: Use sealed containers for dry goods, clean up spills immediately, and don't leave pet food out overnight.
• ◆Schedule Regular Inspections: Oregon's year-round moisture creates persistent pest pressure. Quarterly service is strongly recommended for Forest Grove properties.
