Pest Control in Intercession City, FL

Armadillos are the lawn wreckers here. They'll root a whole side yard in one night hunting grubs, then bed down in the palmettos. Raccoons work trash cans and pet doors on homes with septic and well systems, and opossums den under decks and sheds where lattice sits off the dirt. Leave fallen fruit or cat food out overnight and you'll feed half the woods.

Bugs ride that same cover and damp soil. American roaches stack up in sheds and woodpiles where it stays cool. Subterranean termites chew at piers and old additions where wood touches dirt. Fire ants and ghost ants mound up around well pads and septic lids. The seals on these older houses don't hold like they used to. We keep a tight perimeter and close the gaps, or you'll see them again after the next rain.

We don't start with traps. We start on a ladder, checking soffits and ridge vents for chew and rub. Once we know how they're getting in, we get them out and close it with steel mesh and flashing. Foam won't cut it. Then we walk you through trash and pet food, because properties along the rail corridor will get hit again if dinner's left out.

Roaches and mice don't care if it's the house or the shed. On rural homesteads and acreage lots we treat wooded lots, sheds, and outbuildings on the same visit. We dust voids, tighten screens and sweeps, and clear the brush they travel. That extra half hour keeps palmetto bugs from just shifting buildings.
