Pest control in Coconut Creek
Coconut Creek requires every part of a property to be maintained to prevent infestation. Its code defines infestation as insects, rodents, vermin or other pests that constitute a de facto health hazard. Exterior screens must be kept free of damage and deterioration, with replacement required when they can't be repaired. Owners, operators or occupants are responsible for keeping exterior premises free of hazards, nuisances and unsafe or unsightly blighting conditions.
Landscaped and grassed areas also cannot be allowed to reach nuisance conditions. For insects or rodents, the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services names a General Household Pest and Rodent Control certification category; termite treatment and fumigation each require their own category of certification. Those credentials aren't interchangeable. Coconut Creek's property requirements appear in chapter 6, article I of its Code of Ordinances, the document to use when defining needed screen repairs and other exterior upkeep.

Licensing and rules for pest control in Coconut Creek
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.
