Q and L Pest Management serves the Town of Ocean Ridge, on the barrier island east of Boynton Beach. We inspect first and treat ants, roaches, rodents, termites and mosquitoes in its coastal homes and condos.
Ocean Ridge is a residential barrier-island town east of Boynton Beach, with single-family homes, condos, natural dunes and the Boynton Inlet at its north end.
Coastal humidity, salt air and native dune vegetation shape which pests show up. We look at the landscaping and the roofline as well as the home.

Ocean Ridge pest control FAQ
Why are there so many ants in my coastal home?
Ghost ants and white-footed ants often nest outside and in walls and follow moisture indoors. Baits placed where they forage work best.
Do you treat drywood termites without tenting?
Sometimes. Localized treatments work for small, accessible infestations. We’ll explain when fumigation is the better option.
Do you service condo buildings in Ocean Ridge?
Yes, including common areas and unit requests.
How do I request an inspection for a coastal Ocean Ridge home or condo?
Call (561) 725-5274 or use our contact page. Mention whether ants, drywood termites or the building’s common areas are the reason for the visit so we plan the inspection accordingly.
