Why Coon Rapids homeowners choose Ankora
Ground-nest removal
Yellow jackets in the ground are the ones that send people to urgent care. We treat them at the right hour with the right gear, not with a can and a prayer.
River-corridor tick work
Lots near the dam and Sand Creek carry real tick habitat. We treat the shaded transition zones where they actually wait for a host.
Deer mouse caution
Deer mice aren’t just house mice with better fur; their droppings carry hantavirus risk. We handle control and walk you through safe cleanup, no dry-sweeping.
The Ankora guarantee
The inspection’s free and we actually walk the yard, since half of what we find in Coon Rapids, from ground nests to tick habitat to burrow entries, never touches the house. Re-treats on covered pests are free if they come back within the service window.

Questions people ask before booking
Stay away from it, mark the spot from a distance, and call us. We treat ground nests at dawn or dusk when the colony’s home, which is what actually ends it. Fair warning: you’ll see some activity at the hole for a day or two after treatment, so keep kids and pets clear until it goes silent.
If your lot has shade, leaf litter, or backs onto the wooded corridor, very likely yes. Edge treatments cut the numbers sharply. The flip side: a sunny, tightly mowed lawn in the middle of the block is naturally poor tick habitat, and if that’s your yard, we’ll tell you to save the money.
Usually, yes. Stations and targeted sealing protect what’s stored in there, and sheds are often the staging ground before mice try the house. Two honest limits: a dirt-floor shed can never be fully sealed, and if you find deer mouse droppings, wet them down with disinfectant before cleanup rather than sweeping dry.
