Pest control in Vero Beach is split by the Indian River Lagoon. Mainland homes sit near old citrus land and drainage canals, while barrier island homes along Ocean Drive face salt air, sea grape and dune plants.
Drywood termites are a steady concern on the Treasure Coast. They live inside attic wood, window frames and wood furniture, and many older beachside homes have had them at some point. Pellet piles and wings near windows are the signs to watch.
Royal palms, coconut palms and thick hedges are common in Vero yards. Roof rats nest in palm fronds and hedges, then travel to roofs and attics. Keeping fronds trimmed away from the roof cuts off their path.
