    Safest and Most Effective Iguana Removal Method

    Invasive, pesky, and sometimes just plain dangerous, iguanas are wreaking havoc on the natural beauty and the wildlife population in South Florida. This is why iguana control is so important. Many people worry about the iguana removal cost, as well as how humane it is to get rid of iguanas, but we have you covered with affordable, effective, and safe iguana removal services.

    Iguana removal in Florida is best when done by our licensed and professional iguana trappers. Our team uses the method of trapping or live catching iguanas to remove them. These invasive species can be difficult to catch by hand, and if you have a large infestation, trapping them is your best bet.

    We utilize standard traps along with plants that iguanas love to eat for iguana control. Once the trap is set, we’ll wait for the iguanas to sniff out the bait. Once they creep into the trap to eat, we’ll easily catch them. These traps can then be used for iguana removal in South Florida.

    An invasive species, iguanas can cause damage to homes and businesses, as well as are known to carry diseases. Iguanas continue to pose a threat to the ecosystem and wildlife in Florida. Iguana removal in South Florida is essential to reduce these invasive species. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has declared that there is an open season on lizards to help reduce the population.
    Reptiles of all types are known to carry bacteria in their intestines that is beneficial to them, but harmful to mammals, including humans and pets. Salmonella bacteria can be found in iguana droppings, and this can cause nausea and dehydration in mammals. Botulism can also be passed from iguanas to humans and pets, as it results from bacteria found on the skin of these invasive species. Iguanas and other lizards also attract other pesky animals that carry disease, like raccoons and snakes, as well as other dangerous predators.
    Most iguanas produce a venom that is not very potent, thus not very dangerous to humans. However, their teeth are very sharp and serrated and can cause serious injury if the iguana bites a human or animal.
    Other than spotting iguanas sunning themselves around your property, the most telltale sign of an infestation is brown-ish, black-ish pellets surrounded by liquid.
    Florida law states that you may remove iguanas from your property. However, it must be done humanely and cannot cause suffering. This often requires investing in expensive equipment (e.g. iguana traps, air rifles, catch poles). For large infestations, trapping them is your best bet.
    Typically, we charge between $25-$75 to trap each iguana. This sliding scale takes various elements into account: Number of reptiles, species, landscape/terrain, property footage. Set up a consultation with our team to learn more. 
    Why Should I Hire a Professional Iguana Removal Company?

    While trapping iguanas yourself may seem like a great idea, professional iguana control provides serious benefits:

    Greater Safety

    Without experience, trapping iguanas can be dangerous and lead to bites or damage to your home. Hiring a professional iguana control service significantly reduces the risk of danger to property owners.

    Decreased Cost 

    Hiring an outside company eliminates the need of buying costly equipment (like air rifles and live traps). What’s more, if you fail to capture all of the reptiles, you may actually cause damage to your property and see an increased infestation when they burrow further into your property.

    Zero Stress

    If you’ve never trapped iguanas, you’ll quickly realize that it’s more difficult than it looks. A professional iguana removal service handles the entire problem for you – from trapping to disposing of the remains.
