Ant Control in Scarborough, ME
Professional ant extermination in Scarborough. Same-day appointments, licensed technicians, and a 90-day warranty on every service.
Why Scarborough Homes Need Ant Control
Ants are particularly problematic in Scarborough because our humid continental climate and 43-foot elevation near the coast keep soil moist year-round, providing perfect nesting sites. The suburban density of 23,000 residents means homes are close together, allowing ants to spread quickly from yard to yard. With median home values around $480,000, protecting your investment from structural damage caused by carpenter ants is essential—our local expertise ensures we tackle the root of the issue in Scarborough.

Scarborough Ant Prevention Tips
Seal cracks in your foundation and around windows before winter sets in, as Scarborough's cold winters (average low 14°F) drive ants indoors for warmth. Keep mulch at least 12 inches away from your home's exterior, since Scarborough's high humidity keeps it damp and attractive to nesting ants. Fix leaky pipes and gutters promptly—our coastal suburb's 72% humidity already creates moisture that ants love, so don't add to it.
