Q and L Pest Management graphic: Pest control in Tequesta, FL

Q and L Pest Management serves the Village of Tequesta, Palm Beach County’s northernmost village. We provide inspection-first pest, termite and lawn care for its riverfront homes, neighborhoods and local businesses.

Tequesta sits at the northern edge of Palm Beach County along the Loxahatchee River, with riverfront homes, wooded neighborhoods and local shops.

River moisture, mature trees and dense native landscaping make roof rats, mosquitoes and termites the pests we see most. We inspect the yard, the shoreline and the roofline.

In Tequesta, roof rats in mature trees, mosquitoes near the river, palmetto bugs, ghost ants and subterranean and drywood termites are common calls. Lawns see chinch bugs and fungus.
