Q and L Pest Management serves Lake Worth Beach from our base next door in Lantana. We inspect first, then treat termites, roaches, ants, rodents, mosquitoes and lawn pests in older cottages, newer homes, apartments and storefronts. Call (561) 725-5274 for a complimentary inspection.
Lake Worth Beach is known for its older cottages and bungalows, its downtown along Lake and Lucerne Avenues, and its neighborhoods that run from the Intracoastal west past I-95. Many homes here have wood siding, wood floors, crawl spaces or original trim, which can give termites and wood-boring pests a head start.
Older homes also tend to have more gaps around doors, pipes and rooflines. That’s how roaches, palmetto bugs and roof rats get inside. Our approach is to find those entry points during the inspection and explain what we see before we treat anything.

Common pests in Lake Worth Beach by season
In Lake Worth Beach we often check for drywood termites in older wood, subterranean termites where wood touches soil or stays damp, and roof rats in palms and dense landscaping. Ghost ants and palmetto bugs are year-round. Mosquitoes increase with summer rain.
- 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.

Lake Worth Beach pest control FAQ
Are termites common in older Lake Worth Beach homes?
Older wood-frame homes and cottages have more exposed wood, so termites are worth checking for. Drywood termites leave pellet piles; subterranean termites build mud tubes up from the soil. We’ll inspect and tell you which one you have, if any.
Why do I keep seeing palmetto bugs in my older home?
Palmetto bugs (American cockroaches) usually come in from outside through gaps, drains and crawl spaces, especially after heavy rain. Sealing entry points and treating the exterior usually helps more than spraying indoors.
Do you service apartments and duplexes?
Yes. We work with owners and property managers on residential rentals and multifamily buildings. Commercial and multifamily service details are on our commercial page.
