Pest control in The Acreage
Aerial-spray notifications are available from Palm Beach County for residents of The Acreage. The county's published treatment-area description names the Acreage/Loxahatchee/Royal Palm Beach region. Its broader aerial-treatment area is in western parts of the county west of Military Trail, an area with wet environments that support dusk-active mosquitoes. That describes the program's treatment geography, not an announcement that your property is being sprayed today. High adult populations found through monitoring, or an outbreak of mosquito-borne disease, lead the county to use aerial spraying.
Other mosquito-control methods include biological controls, chemicals and larvicides of the hormonal and bacterial types. Residents can submit mosquito activity reports online or at (561) 967-6480. A Palm Beach County mosquito-borne illness advisory appeared in the Florida Department of Health's October 17, 2026 report; that countywide notice doesn't establish conditions at an individual address. Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services requires private household pest businesses to hold a license for each location, renewed annually.
They must display it there, with an operator qualified for each category of work performed. An employee's identification card must show a signature and photograph, and must be carried while performing pest control. They work under the supervising operator and can't be independent contractors. Spray-status information is available at (561) 642-8775.

Licensing and rules for pest control in The Acreage
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.
