Aurora property owners must control rats, mice, and pest infestations under Aurora Code Chapter 62 and Tri-County Health rules, with code enforcement empowered to order abatement at owner expense.
Aurora Code Chapter 62 housing standards and Chapter 70 nuisance provisions require property owners to keep premises free of rats, mice, and other rodent infestations. Tri-County Health Department successor agencies handle restaurants, while Aurora Code Enforcement handles residential and commercial property pest issues. Owners receive notice and a deadline to abate infestations through licensed pest control. Common nuisance triggers include accumulated trash, uncovered compost, food waste, and structural gaps allowing rodent entry. Tenants may report rodent issues directly to Aurora Code Enforcement. Failure to abate triggers municipal abatement at owner cost, with liens filed against the property.
Failure to abate after notice results in city-contracted abatement billed to the owner, plus daily fines up to 1,000 dollars per violation under Aurora Code Chapter 70 nuisance provisions.
