The Orange County program also sits on UF/IFAS's statewide mosquito control table.
Orange County had a mosquito-borne illness alert and 8 dengue cases acquired locally this year when week 41's report closed on October 17, 2026. Each location of a pest control business holds its own FDACS license, renewed every year. When a licensee inspects for wood-destroying organisms for a real estate sale and charges for it, or the customer wants it in writing, the report goes on the form FDACS prescribes.
It covers all such organisms, lists visible accessible areas the inspector didn't check and why, and notes any visible sign of past treatment or infestation. Alafaya has 90,874 residents in the census and only 3.0% of its homes date from before 1980. The ACS figures are a 2002 median year built and a 64.4% owner share, at $425,500 median value.

Licensing and rules for pest control in Alafaya
Florida cities don't license pest control companies. FDACS licenses the business at each location, its certified operator and its employees, and state law reserves pest control and pesticide rules to the state, though a city or county may require a local business tax receipt, which needs the FDACS license first. Ask for the company's FDACS license number before anyone treats the house.
