Key Biscayne Wildlife Questions
What pests are most problematic on Key Biscayne?
Key Biscayne's barrier island environment creates intense pest pressure from multiple species. Iguanas are ubiquitous on the island — they damage landscaping, burrow under pool decks and seawalls, and are aggressive during breeding season. Mosquitoes from the Virginia Key and Bill Baggs State Park mangroves are severe during the wet season. Drywood termites are active in wood construction throughout the island.
How do I control iguanas on my Key Biscayne property?
Key Biscayne has one of the highest iguana population densities in Miami-Dade County. Iguanas are protected under Florida law and may only be removed humanely by licensed professionals. Our trapping programs are designed for island conditions — including waterfront properties where iguanas access yards via seawall swimming. We also install exclusion barriers around pools, seawalls, and vulnerable landscaping.
Are mosquitoes a major problem on Key Biscayne?
Yes. Key Biscayne's mangrove-fringed shorelines, particularly near Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park and the Virginia Key wetlands, produce massive mosquito populations during the wet season. Ocean breezes help near the oceanfront, but interior island properties see intense mosquito activity. Bi-weekly perimeter barrier spray treatments are recommended from May through October.
