A community mosquito program targets the shared spaces residents use: pool decks, clubhouses, playgrounds, dog parks, walking paths and the landscaping around buildings. We inspect common areas for standing water where mosquitoes breed, treat breeding and resting sites, schedule visits through the rainy season, and give managers a report listing sources maintenance can fix.
Mosquitoes are one of the most common resident complaints in Palm Beach County communities during the wet season. Many of them breed on the property itself, in storm drains, gutters, planters, tarps and low spots in common landscaping. Treating and removing those sources across the community is more effective than residents treating their own yards one at a time.
Mosquito sources in communities
- Storm drains, catch basins and clogged gutters on common buildings.
- Planters, decorative containers and fountains in amenity areas.
- Low spots and irrigation puddles in common turf.
- Dense, shaded hedges where adult mosquitoes rest.
- Tarps, equipment and debris around maintenance areas.

How our community mosquito program works
Common-area inspection
We walk the common areas and amenity spaces and mark breeding sites.
Treatment of breeding and resting sites
We treat standing water that can’t be removed and the shaded landscaping where adults rest.
Maintenance recommendations
Reports list sources the manager or landscaper can remove, such as clogged gutters or containers.
Scheduled through the wet season
Visits are scheduled ahead, with notice so managers can let residents know.
Our mosquitoes page in the pest library and the seasonal tips on our blog are useful for resident newsletters.

Community mosquito control FAQ
Can you treat individual residents’ yards too?

We inspect around ponds and treat accessible standing water as appropriate. Large bodies of water may fall under county mosquito control programs.
