Westchester Wildlife Questions
What pests are most common in Westchester's dense suburban community?
Westchester's densely populated unincorporated community in central-west Miami-Dade sees high rates of ghost ant infestations, German cockroaches in older apartment buildings and commercial kitchens along Bird Road and Coral Way, and roof rat activity in the mature tree canopy. The area's older housing stock from the 1950s through 1970s is susceptible to drywood and subterranean termite damage.
How do I control ghost ants in my Westchester home or apartment?
Ghost ants are the number one pest complaint in Westchester's dense residential community. In multi-family buildings along major corridors, they spread between units through shared plumbing and wall voids. Professional gel bait treatment coordinated with building-wide application through property management is the most effective approach. Monthly service programs prevent reinfestation from the surrounding neighborhood.
Are drywood termites a serious risk in Westchester?
Yes. Westchester's significant stock of older construction — much of it from the 1950s through 1970s — is prime drywood termite territory. The neighborhood's proximity to Fontainebleau and Coral Gables, both areas with high historic termite activity, increases exposure to swarming drywood termites each spring and fall. Annual WDO inspections are strongly recommended for all Westchester homeowners.
