Why Des Moines Homes Need Bee Control
Bees are particularly problematic in Des Moines because our urban density and older homes with eaves, attics, and wall voids provide perfect nesting sites. The city's elevation of 837 feet and cold winters (down to 14°F) drive bees to seek shelter inside structures, leading to costly damage. In Des Moines, a single untreated hive can grow to thousands of bees by midsummer, posing risks to residents and pets.

Des Moines Bee Prevention Tips
Seal gaps around rooflines and vents in Des Moines before spring, as our humid summers attract bees to cool, shaded entry points. Remove standing water from your Des Moines yard after rain, since the city's 70% humidity and frequent storms create breeding grounds for bees. Trim back trees and shrubs near your Des Moines home's exterior, as dense foliage provides cover for bees to build nests close to structures.
