About our service
Pest control for Oakdale, MN
Oakdale, Minnesota, has about 30,400 residents and an impressive number of small parks, including Mary Tilley Park, Bethke Park, Armstrong Park, Tilsen Park, Eagle Ridge Park, Richard Walton Park and Eberle Park. Having so many pockets of lawn, trees and play areas spread through town means that most homes are only a short walk from the kind of habitat that insects and small animals love.
Natural Pest Solutions helps Oakdale households and businesses with carpenter ant, rodent and spider problems, and we also handle flea control and wasp nests. We use natural pest control options and non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. There is no long-term contract, and every visit begins with a free quote.

Pests in Oakdale
What we deal with most around Oakdale, MN
Small parks scattered through neighborhoods make life easy for ants, wasps and mosquitoes, which can move from a play area to a nearby yard without much effort. Homeowners often notice ant trails in kitchens and bathrooms during warm spells, and wasp nests in soffits, swing sets and shed corners by midsummer. Fleas appear where pets share the yard with wildlife.
Once fall arrives, mice explore garages, foundations and utility openings, and cluster flies and stink bugs gather on sun-facing walls. Spiders come along with the insects they eat. Cutting back ivy and shrubs that touch siding, storing firewood away from the house and repairing damaged screens give these pests fewer routes to your living space.
Weather and pests
How Oakdale's weather affects pest activity
Oakdale sees cold winters and warm, humid summers. January lows average around 9 degrees and July highs about 83. About 12 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher, and roughly 146 nights fall to freezing or below. Precipitation is close to 29 inches a year, with June the wettest month at about 4.6 inches. These figures are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and are a guide, not a forecast.
Compared with some other Minnesota cities, Oakdale's precipitation total is on the modest side, but June rain is enough to keep the mosquito season going once the weather warms. Overflowing gutters, clogged drains, toys left in the yard and uncovered containers hold enough water to breed them. A quick weekly sweep of the yard after rainfall is one of the most reliable ways to keep numbers down.
With 146 freezing nights, the fall exclusion window matters here. The best time to seal foundation cracks, install door sweeps and screen attic vents is early autumn, before mice start scouting. Garages and basements are the first places rodents look, so keeping stored items in sealed plastic tubs instead of cardboard, and off the floor, removes both food and nesting material.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Oakdale
Ant treatment in Oakdale
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Oakdale, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Activity climbs quickly once spring temperatures arrive. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Oakdale
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Oakdale buildings offer plenty of all three. With a long cold season, the pressure builds every fall. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Oakdale
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. A yearly inspection costs little next to the cost of repairs. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Oakdale home is built.
Cockroach control in Oakdale
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Oakdale apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Oakdale
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Oakdale
A little standing water is all it takes for mosquitoes to breed in Oakdale. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
