Local Context

Why Scarborough Homes Need Bee Control

Bees are particularly problematic in Scarborough due to our humid climate and suburban density, which provides abundant nesting sites in eaves, sheds, and trees. The 72% average humidity and elevation of just 43 feet create ideal conditions for bees to build large colonies near homes and high-value properties like those around the Maine Mall. In Scarborough, where median home values reach $480,000, a bee infestation can quickly damage structures and pose stinging risks to residents and pets.

βœ“One thing many Scarborough homeowners don't realize is that our coastal location near Casco Bay means we see a higher number of ground-nesting bees in sandy soils, especially in neighborhoods close to the Maine Mall. These bees can be mistaken for yellowjackets and often build nests in lawn patches or garden beds, making them a hidden hazard during summer barbecues. Our local pros know exactly where to look and how to treat these Scarborough-specific nesting spots.

Trim back shrubs and trees near your home's foundation in early fall, as Scarborough's suburban landscape provides ideal cover for bee colonies.
