For a closer look at one service in Lantana, see our Lantana pages for home pest control, termite control, rodent control and mosquito control.
Lantana is a small town with a lot packed in: older single-family streets west of the Intracoastal, condos and townhomes near the water, and businesses along Lantana Road and Dixie Highway. That mix means we see a little of everything, from ghost ants trailing along kitchen counters to drywood termites in older wood trim and roof framing.
Because we’re based in Lantana, scheduling here is simple, and we know the area’s housing well. Older homes with wood soffits, attics and porches give drywood termites and roof rats more places to hide. Homes near the water and the canals tend to stay damp, which mosquitoes and palmetto bugs like.

Common pests in Lantana by season
In Lantana we pay close attention to roof rats in the cooler months, when they move from palms and fruit trees into attics. Termite swarms in spring are another common call. Mosquitoes pick up in the rainy season, especially near standing water in planters, gutters and boat covers.
- November to January: rodents, especially roof rats, move indoors as nights cool.
- Spring: termite swarms. Save a few wings or bugs so we can identify them, and see our guide to termite signs.
- Rainy season: mosquitoes, plus ants and palmetto bugs pushed indoors by heavy rain.
- Hot, dry season: chinch bugs in St. Augustine lawns.

Local pest notes for Lantana
Lantana is our home base, and we serve the whole town, from Lantana Municipal Beach and Bicentennial Park on the Intracoastal to the Ocean Avenue corridor, Sportsman’s Park, the neighborhoods west of I-95 and nearby Hypoluxo Island.
Many Lantana homes are mid-century builds. Their wood soffits, attic framing and trim are where drywood termites settle, and homeowners usually notice pellets or spring swarmers first. Tall coconut and royal palms are common in yards here, and roof rats use palm crowns as nest sites and fronds as a path to the roof. When fronds touch the roofline, rats can reach the attic in a few steps. Learn more about rodents in Palm Beach County.
Near the Intracoastal and the canals, damp soil and still water raise mosquito and palmetto bug pressure in the rainy season. In the hot, dry stretch, St. Augustine lawns can brown out from chinch bugs, especially in sunny spots near the street. Condo buildings and small HOAs near the water need common areas and individual units handled together. We start every visit with an inspection and explain what we see in plain language.
Recent job in Lantana
In August 2026 we treated a group of unoccupied multi-unit homes in Lantana on a quarterly plan. The technician found spiders in the garages, ants, and one dead American cockroach, then treated for crawling pests and spread granular bait around the exterior. Because drains in empty homes can dry out and let pests in, we recommended running the plumbing weekly. We also planned a follow-up retreatment and a possible broadcast treatment of the foliage for Caribbean crazy ants.

Lantana pest control FAQ
Where is Q and L Pest Management based?
We’re based in Lantana, FL, and serve Palm Beach County from Jupiter and Tequesta down to Boca Raton, plus nearby Broward cities. Call (561) 725-5274 to confirm your address.
Are drywood termites a problem in older Lantana homes?
They can be. Drywood termites live inside dry wood such as attic framing, trim, doors and furniture, and older homes have more exposed wood. Look for small piles of pellets that look like coffee grounds, and save any wings you find. We’ll inspect to confirm what you’re dealing with.
If I’m not home in Lantana, can you still treat the outside of the house?
For exterior service, usually not, as long as we can reach the yard. For an inspection or interior treatment at a Lantana home, someone should be there. Appointments are always scheduled the day before.
Do palm trees attract rats to my roof?
Palms don’t attract rats on their own, but roof rats like to nest in palm crowns and use fronds as a bridge to the roof, and coconut palms give them food. Keep fronds trimmed back from the roofline, remove fallen coconuts and dead fronds, and listen for scratching in the attic at night. We inspect the roofline and attic to find entry points.
What should I do before a termite inspection?
Clear access to the attic hatch, garage walls, the areas under sinks and around the water heater, and move stored items away from walls where you can. If you’ve seen wings, swarmers or pellet piles, save a few in a sealed bag and note where and when you saw them, so we know where to look first.
We’re building in Lantana. Should we pretreat for termites?
It’s worth planning for. Florida’s building code requires termite protection for new construction, and a soil pretreatment is a common way to provide it. We do pre-construction termite work for new homes, treating the ground before the slab goes in to create a barrier against subterranean termites. Call (561) 725-5274 to talk it through.
Since you are based in Lantana, how quickly can I get a complimentary inspection?
Our office is in Lantana, so local homes and businesses are in our everyday coverage. Call (561) 725-5274 or use our contact page. The inspection is complimentary so we can find the source before recommending treatment, and you do not always need to be home for exterior service.
How do I choose a pest control company in Lantana?
Look for a Florida-licensed, insured company that inspects before it treats and knows the local pests in Lantana, such as ghost ants and palmetto bugs in older block homes, roof rats in palms, and drywood termites in trusses and trim. Q and L Pest Management holds Florida pest control business license JB333443, is family owned, licensed and insured, veteran-owned, and certified in the four major Florida pest control categories.
