Miami Wildlife Questions
What pests are most common in Miami neighborhoods like Brickell, Wynwood, and Little Havana?
Miami's dense urban neighborhoods face heavy pressure from German cockroaches, roof rats, ghost ants, and bed bugs. High-rise buildings in Brickell see significant cockroach and rodent activity, while historic areas like Little Havana deal with drywood termites in older wood structures.
Are Formosan termites a major problem in Miami?
Yes. Miami sits at the epicenter of the Formosan subterranean termite range in North America. These termites are particularly destructive in Miami's older neighborhoods and any structure with wood construction. Annual termite inspections and preventative baiting systems are strongly recommended.
How do I get rid of iguanas damaging my Miami property?
Miami's iguana population has exploded in recent years. Iguanas destroy landscaping, seawalls, and pool areas throughout the city. Professional trapping and humane removal is the most effective solution — and under Florida law, iguanas may only be removed by the property owner or a licensed wildlife removal professional.
