Why St. Paul homeowners choose Ankora
Stone foundation literate
A 1905 fieldstone wall has more entry points than anyone could count, so we don’t count them. We find the active runs, seal what matters, and bait the rest.
Tree-to-house ant tracing
In mature-canopy neighborhoods the parent colony is usually outside. We follow the trail back instead of just spraying your kitchen and calling it done.
Licensed and local
Fully licensed, bonded, and insured in Minnesota, with techs who can tell Frogtown from Payne-Phalen without the GPS.
The Ankora guarantee
Inspections are free, and in St. Paul that usually means twenty minutes in your basement with a flashlight before we quote a thing. Covered pests carry a re-treat guarantee, so if the mice find a new route through that old stone, the return trip costs you nothing.
- Same-dayscheduling available
- $0re-service between visits

Questions people ask before booking
We can get you most of the way there, honestly. Sealing the gaps mice actually use, plus stations to back it up, holds for the vast majority of houses. But 120-year-old stone shifts and mortar keeps crumbling, so we’d rather promise ongoing control than a hermetic seal nobody can deliver.
Sawdust with insect parts mixed in usually means carpenter ants, and old St. Paul porches with a little water damage are exactly where we find them. We’ll confirm it free at the inspection. One caveat: if that wood’s been wet for years, fixing the moisture matters as much as killing the colony, or they’ll be back.
For that corridor, more normal than people want to hear. The flats and rail lines carry steady rat traffic, and nearby construction pushes them uphill into the neighborhoods. Baiting and exclusion will protect your property, but if there’s active work close by, plan on sustained pressure rather than a single visit.
