Hillsboro's rapid growth over the past two decades — from Orenco Station to Tanasbourne — has meant a lot of newer construction alongside older Washington County farmhouses, and pest pressure looks different depending on which you're in.
Common pests we treat in Hillsboro
In newer Hillsboro developments, we most often see ants and occasional rodent entry around utility lines; in older properties nearer downtown, carpenter ants and moisture pests are more common, consistent with what we see across the wider Portland metro.
Our process
Every visit starts with a full inspection — identifying entry points, moisture issues, and current activity — before we recommend anything. From there, we favor non-chemical and reduced-toxicity treatments wherever they'll get the job done, back that up with physical exclusion (sealing gaps, screens, door sweeps), and build an ongoing prevention plan rather than treating pest control as a one-time fix. We handle residential, commercial, and crawlspace restoration work.
Why Hillsboro homeowners choose PestLock
We tailor the inspection to the age and construction type of the home rather than running the same checklist everywhere — a newer Orenco Station townhome and an older downtown Hillsboro house have different vulnerable points. We've served the Portland–Vancouver metro for over 20 years.
Service area
We serve Orenco Station, Tanasbourne, Downtown Hillsboro, and the surrounding Washington County area. If you're just outside these boundaries, reach out — we likely still cover your address.

Our 60-day guarantee
Most pest control companies guarantee their work for 30 days. We guarantee ours for 60. For one-time treatments, if pests come back within 60 days, we'll return and re-treat at no charge — no extra paperwork, no fine print working against you. For ongoing plans, covered pests are re-treated free any time between scheduled visits, for as long as your plan is active.
