Pest Control in Bloomington, Minnesota
Half of Bloomington sits on 1950s and 60s slabs, and the other half backs up to the Minnesota River bottoms, so we see two different cities on one route. Ant trails across a rambler slab in the morning. River-bottom mosquitoes by a Bush Lake deck that afternoon.
- Mosquitoes breeding in the river bottoms and refuge wetlands south of Old Shakopee Road
- Pavement and odorous house ants coming up through slab cracks in mid-century ramblers
- Mice pushing into garages and utility rooms hard every October
- Wasps and hornets on decks and play structures from July through September
- Licensed, bonded & insured
- Free inspections
- Same-day service
- Re-service guarantee
- Eco-friendly methods
Why Bloomington homeowners choose Ankora
River-bottom realists
Barrier mosquito treatments tuned for homes near the Minnesota Valley refuge, with honest expectations about what a barrier can do that close to standing water.
Slab-home ant control
On a mid-century slab, ants can travel under the whole house. We treat the entry seams and bait the colony, not just the trail you can see.
Fall rodent scheduling
October fills up fast here. Weekday hours run 7am to 7pm so pre-winter sealing actually gets done before the first hard frost.
The Ankora guarantee
The inspection costs nothing, and on a Bloomington rambler it usually covers the slab perimeter, garage, and attic hatch inside an hour. If a covered pest comes back after treatment, we re-treat free. Same deal in Oxboro as up by Normandale.
- Same-dayscheduling available
- $0re-service between visits

Questions people ask before booking
For most yards, yes, with a caveat. Treating the shaded foliage where adults rest cuts the biting population noticeably for a few weeks at a time. But we treat your property, not the refuge, so mosquitoes will keep drifting in from the bottoms. You’re buying a big reduction, not elimination.
The colony usually lives under or beside the slab where winter never really reaches it, so spring warmth wakes the same population up. Baiting knocks colonies out, but new ones move into good real estate. On slab homes, a yearly perimeter treatment is the honest answer, not a one-time fix.
Late September or early October, before the first frost sends them looking for heat. If they’re already inside, sealing alone won’t cut it; we trap first, then close the gaps. Book early, because that window is our busiest month in Bloomington.
