# Minneapolis Pest Control > Minneapolis Pest Control is a call line that connects homes and businesses in Minneapolis, Saint Paul and nearby suburbs with an independent local pest-control company. Phones are answered 24/7, same-day visits are offered when a technician is free, and the price is confirmed before any treatment begins. Outdoor insects go dormant through the long cold, so the trouble moves indoors. Mice, rats, boxelder bugs and Asian lady beetles seek shelter as autumn nights turn cold, and some overwinter in basements, walls and attics, reappearing on warm winter days and at the spring thaw. Call for mouse and rat control, basement sealing, overwintering insects, cockroaches, bed bugs, bats and other wildlife across Hennepin, Ramsey and Dakota counties. ## Key facts - Business: Minneapolis Pest Control - What: Residential and commercial pest control - Phone: (855) 974-4733 (+18559744733) - Email: info@minneapolispestcontrol.shop - Website: https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/ - Based in: Minneapolis, MN (service-area business; we travel to customers) - Service area: Minneapolis and Hennepin County, Minnesota, including Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Mendota, Hopkins, Navarre, Minnetonka, Loretto, Osseo, South Saint Paul, Eden Prairie, Circle Pines, Wayzata, Inver Grove Heights, Champlin, Newport, Maple Plain, Chanhassen, Crystal Bay, Savage, Long Lake - Hours: Phones answered 24/7 - Languages: English - Address: Minneapolis, MN 55401 - Pricing: Confirmed with you before any treatment starts - Seasons: Outdoor insects go dormant through the cold; mice, rats and overwintering insects move indoors from autumn until the spring thaw.

What Moves the Quote](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/pest-control-cost-minneapolis-mn/): No Minneapolis, Minnesota or Hennepin County price list is available to us, so any local dollar figure would be a guess. What we can say is what moves a quote: the pest, the building, basement and attic access, the season and whether you want one visit or a plan. A technician confirms the price on site before any work starts. - [When Do Mice Come Into Minnesota Homes, and What to Seal First](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/when-do-mice-come-in-minnesota/): Mice are often reported moving into Minnesota homes from about October, when nights turn freezing and the harvest ends, though the date follows the weather. They need a gap of roughly a quarter inch. Sealing in late summer or early autumn, starting with the basement, works better than trapping after they have settled in. - [Boxelder Bugs and Asian Lady Beetles on Your Minnesota Home](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/boxelder-bugs-asian-lady-beetles-minnesota/): Boxelder bugs and Asian lady beetles gather on sunny walls each autumn looking for a place to spend the winter. University of Minnesota Extension says neither feeds or breeds indoors. Those that get under shingles and into wall voids wake on warm days and die within days without food. Sealing in autumn is what helps. - [Vole Damage Under the Snow on Minnesota Lawns: What the Melt Reveals](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/voles-under-the-snow-minnesota-lawns/): Voles feed on lawns under good snow cover, so the damage shows only when the snow melts, mostly in late winter and early spring, according to University of Minnesota Extension. Grass usually recovers slowly. Woody plants girdled at the base can be killed. Protection has to be in place in autumn, before the snow. - [Frost Depth, Basements and Where Pests Get In](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/frost-depth-basements-and-pests/): Minnesota footings are dug below the frost line so freezing ground does not heave them, which is why Twin Cities homes have deep foundations and basements. Those foundations leave joints pests use: the sill plate, rim joist, window wells and utility entries. The exact frost depth is a code figure to confirm locally. - [Mosquito Season in the Twin Cities: What the District Treats and What You Do](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/mosquito-season-twin-cities-mmcd/): The Metropolitan Mosquito Control District covers Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington counties, concentrating on mosquito larvae in public wetlands, with crews starting in spring and working until about October. It does not clear the water on your own lot. Draining containers and gutters is the homeowner's share. - [Are Termites a Real Problem in Minneapolis? An Honest Answer](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/termites-in-minnesota-how-common/): Termites are uncommon to rare in Minnesota, according to University of Minnesota Extension, and generally found in the southern third of the state. Subterranean termites swarm in spring where they occur, and there are no drywood termites in the state. For most Minneapolis homes, carpenter ants and damp wood are the likelier worry. - [Minneapolis Pest Calendar: What to Watch Each Month](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/guides/minneapolis-pest-calendar/): Minneapolis pest pressure has two peaks, not a flat year. Autumn, around September and October, brings mice, boxelder bugs and Asian lady beetles indoors. The spring thaw, around March and April, brings overwintered insects out and restarts ants. Between them, outdoor insects are dormant and the trouble is indoors. ## Company - [About](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/about/) - [Reviews](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/reviews/) - [Contact](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/contact/) ## Optional - [Full text of every page](https://minneapolispestcontrol.shop/llms-full.txt)
