Pest control in Key Largo
Drains and water-holding containers are part of Florida Keys Mosquito Control's residential inspection work in Key Largo. Staff identify and eliminate mosquito habitats during visits. They empty or cover containers, inspect and treat drains, and may introduce mosquito-eating fish. The district conducts annual mosquito-control sweeps in Key Largo and Key West; residents also have an individual service-request route: the online form lets you report breeding sites or request mosquito-eating fish, a property inspection or a spray truck.
For maintenance between visits, the district advises flushing bird baths and water-holding plants weekly to interrupt mosquito development. For a separate termite treatment, Florida requires a written agreement before work or payment. You'll receive the names of organisms treated, the inspection intervals and fees, a maximum price, and an exact fee for yearly renewal. On the first page, coverage must specify subterranean or drywood termites, or both; any excluded Formosan or other invasive termites must be named. The mosquito district's service line is 305-292-7190.

Licensing and rules for pest control in Key Largo
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.
