Local Context

Why Urbandale Homes Need Bee Control

Bees are particularly problematic in Urbandale because our humid summers and mild winters create ideal conditions for nesting in wall voids, attics, and eaves of our $285,000 median-value homes. The city's suburban density, with 46,000 residents spread across tree-lined neighborhoods, provides abundant flowering plants and water sources that attract bees. Our elevation of 958 feet and 70% humidity mean bees stay active longer here than in drier regions, increasing the risk of stings and structural damage to Urbandale properties.

One thing many Urbandale homeowners don't realize is that bees often build nests inside the hollow spaces of older homes near the Living History Farms area, where historic structures provide ideal shelter. Our local pros have seen a spike in calls after wet springs, when the high humidity drives bees to seek dry cavities in attics and siding. This insider knowledge helps us pinpoint problem spots that other pest control companies might miss in Urbandale.

Urbandale Bee Prevention Tips

Seal cracks and gaps around your Urbandale home's foundation and roofline before spring, as our humid climate encourages bees to find dry shelter. Remove standing water from birdbaths and gutters after rain, since Urbandale's 70% humidity already provides plenty of moisture for bees to thrive. Trim back flowering shrubs and trees near your house in early fall, as our long growing season gives bees ample time to establish nests close to your home.
