Coral Gables Wildlife Questions
Are drywood termites a major problem in Coral Gables historic homes?
Absolutely. Coral Gables is home to hundreds of Mediterranean Revival structures built in the 1920s and 1930s, many with original wood construction. Drywood termites cause significant damage to these historic properties โ annual WDO inspections and fumigation or targeted treatments are essential for Coral Gables homeowners.

Properties along the Coral Gables Waterway face elevated mosquito pressure, ghost ants attracted to moisture, and occasional iguana intrusions from the canal banks. Roof rats also nest in mature canopy trees like banyans and ficus that are abundant throughout the city.

Pool areas in Coral Gables attract mosquitoes, ghost ants, and iguanas year-round. We recommend barrier mosquito treatments every 3โ4 weeks during the wet season, perimeter ant baiting, and iguana exclusion measures like wire mesh around seawalls and pool equipment.
