“Sheldon was awesome. He came out same-day on a Friday to handle yellow jackets that nested in one of our exterior walls. The wasps were gone by that evening. Super reasonably priced. Quick and professional service. Great guy! I’d recommend his services to anyone”

“This guy is the greatest. He’s been coming out every few months and keeping our defensive barrier up around the house. Consistent and very responsive when we have an outbreak, which is rare. I would definitely recommend Cherry city if you’re looking to get rid of some pests.”

“I have contracted with Cherry City Pest Control for a number of years now and have extremely happy with the service provided. I first utilized their service because of a carpenter ant infestation and the problem was resolved quickly. Then I went on to have the annual service plan and we have not experienced any reoccurrence of that issue and the routine treatments have prevented other insect and/or rodent problems. Sheldon is responsive and will quickly follow up on any questions or issues that may arise.”

Cherry City Pest Control has served the Salem, Oregon area since 2006, which is 20 years of local operation. The company works out of one shop at 115 Kashmir St SE in Salem and holds a 4.9-star rating on Google from customers in the communities it serves.
Cherry City Pest Control treats general household pests, rodents (mice and rats), ants, wasps and yellow jackets, and provides commercial pest management for businesses. If you are not sure what you are dealing with, call and describe what you are seeing and where. Identifying the pest correctly comes before choosing any treatment.
Costs vary by pest type, property size and service frequency, but third-party market data for Oregon puts periodic/monthly pest control service around $40 to $45 per visit, and quarterly plans in the range of $100 to $300 per quarter. These are market averages, not a quote. Actual pricing depends on what an inspection finds at your specific property.
Per Oregon State University Extension research, yellow jacket populations in the Pacific Northwest peak in late summer, with stinging-insect activity and aggression rising through July as colonies grow and food sources become scarce. Activity can remain aggressive into fall as colonies begin to decline, even as cooler weather sets in. A nest is often most dangerous to remove without a professional right when it is largest.
Store-bought ant treatments can knock down visible ants but often miss the nest itself, and some ant species split into multiple colonies when disturbed by an incomplete treatment, making the problem worse. A professional inspection identifies the species and nest location before treatment, which is the difference between a lasting fix and a recurring one.
Cherry City Pest Control holds Oregon Department of Agriculture commercial pesticide operator and applicator licenses, and products are applied according to their EPA-registered labels. Re-entry times depend on the product and the treatment, so ask when you book. We will tell you how long to keep children and pets away from treated areas for your specific service.
Common signs include droppings near food storage or along walls, gnaw marks on food packaging or wiring, scratching sounds in walls or attics (especially at night), and a stale, musky odor in enclosed spaces. Rodent activity in Western Oregon typically increases in fall as mice and rats move indoors seeking shelter from cooling temperatures.
It depends on the pest, your town and the schedule that week, so the quickest way to find out is to call (503) 269-7812, Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 6:00pm. Describe what you are seeing and where, and you will get a straight answer on the next available visit. For an active wasp or yellow jacket nest, call rather than using the online form.
