Pests in Miami
The City of Miami has two pest problems layered on top of each other. The old grid — Shenandoah, Little Havana, Coral Way, the Grove — is 1920s to 1950s houses with wood window frames, wood soffits, and Dade County pine framing that drywood termites have been working on for decades; every spring the swarmers come out of the same houses. Brickell and the bay are condos: German roaches that ride in with groceries and travel between units through the plumbing chases, and bed bugs from short-term rentals.
Companies that work the city know that condo work means a building engineer, a written notice to neighbors, and treating the units on either side; and that old-house termite work starts with a proper inspection of the attic and the window frames, not a tent quote from the driveway.
Miami facts you will be asked about
- Licensing
- Pest control in Florida is licensed by FDACS under Chapter 482: the company holds a business license, a certified operator is in charge, and every technician carries an ID card. The state's license lookup shows the categories a company is licensed for (general household, termite, fumigation, lawn). source
- Fumigation
- A tent requires the fumigation category on the license and a notice of fumigation filed with the state before the job; the company that sold the tent is often not the one holding the gas license, and you can ask which is which.
- Housing
- 1920s wood-frame houses in Shenandoah and the Grove with a century of drywood termite history, 1950s to 60s block houses with wood soffits and window frames, and condo towers on the bay where German roaches and bed bugs travel between units.
- Local rule that matters
- Iguanas and raccoons are wildlife, not pests: their removal follows FWC rules, which vary by species and method, and a pest control license does not cover it. Ask the company what the proposed work requires before paying for either.

Termite inspection and treatment: Drywood swarms every spring from the same 1920s window frames in Shenandoah and the Grove; the question is tent or spot, and the inspection decides. Roaches, ants, and bed bugs: German roaches moving between condo units through the plumbing chases, and bed bugs from short-term rentals on the bay. Rat and rodent exterminator: Roof rats from the mango and avocado canopy into the attics of the older grid; inspection, trapping, then sealing the soffits once the catches stop.
