Rivers, oaks and quiet streets
Tequesta sits between the Loxahatchee River and the Martin County line, with river-front and canal homes, wooded lots under big oaks and pines, and condos near the water. Shade and moisture are everywhere, which suits ants, palmetto bugs and spiders.
White-footed and ghost ants trail in from trees and hedges touching the house. Palmetto bugs live in leaf litter and come in after rain. Spiders build up on screened porches and docks. Wooded lots can also bring more rodents and occasional ticks along the edges.
Near the Martin County line
Tequesta is the northernmost town on our Palm Beach County list, at the county line along the Loxahatchee River. Many homes here sit on wooded or river-front lots with heavy shade, which means less sun drying the ground and more cover for pests near the foundation. We pay attention to where tree limbs and shrubs touch the house, since ants often travel along them to get inside.
How a Tequesta visit is planned
Wooded Tequesta lots need a careful look at where nature meets the house: limbs on the roof, shrubs against the walls, leaf litter along the slab and wood piles near the garage. We inspect those edges and the rooms you want checked, then explain the plan. Recurring service is built around the exterior, and knock-down of webs and pest debris is included with every exterior service that is part of a general house or building pest control contract.
River-front and wooded lots
Leaf litter, tree limbs on the roof and wood piles against the house all bring pests closer. We point out those conditions on the inspection. Clearing them is work for you or your contractor; we stay with the inspection and treatment.
