Pest Control Company in Naples, FL

Houses in Port Royal, Aqualane Shores, Park Shore and Pelican Bay often sit closed through the wet months, and Precision Pest Control plans around that gap.

Main targets are drywood and Formosan termites, white-footed and ghost ants, salt marsh mosquitoes and no-see-ums.

Looking After Naples Homes, In Season and Out

West Indian drywood termites

Drywood Termite Control in Naples

University of Florida termite records show West Indian drywood termites collected again and again inside the city of Naples since 2017. This termite needs no soil. It lives in the wood itself, from roof framing to furniture, and UF says it is the reason behind almost every structural fumigation in the state. Look for small mounds of hard pellets beneath a tiny hole, or discarded wings between April and June. In a house closed for summer nobody sees those clues, so ask for a check when you return.

Formosan and other subterranean termites

Subterranean Termite Control in Naples

The same UF map places Formosan subterranean termites in North Naples as far back as 2003 and around the city since 2014, with new collections in 2026. It also holds one Asian subterranean termite sample from the south end of Naples in 2015 and many records of the native dark southern subterranean termite. All of them come up from the ground through mud tubes, which is why soil, mulch and irrigation against the foundation deserve attention.

White-footed ants and ghost ants

Ant Control in Naples

Collier County has been on UF's list of white-footed ant counties since 2002. Colonies run from 8,000 to 3 million ants, nest in palm boots, tree holes, gutters and attics, and follow the same trail for months to reach nectar and honeydew. The ants are harmless to people and to the building, yet hard to stop: baits are the only method UF found effective. Ghost ants, tiny with pale legs, behave similarly and nest in potted plants and wall voids.

Salt marsh mosquitoes and no-see-ums

Mosquito and No-See-Um Control in Naples

The Collier Mosquito Control District, founded in 1950, counts 55 kinds of mosquitoes in the county. The one coastal residents notice most is the black salt marsh mosquito, which breeds in salt marsh and mangroves, emerges in huge broods all at once and rides the wind up to 40 miles. No-see-ums come from the same marsh and mangrove edges. Standard screening does not keep them out, so lanais near the bay need the finer no-see-um mesh.

Local advice

Green iguanas in Naples

Collier is one of only two Gulf Coast counties where the state wildlife commission reports established green iguanas. On a canal lot in Port Royal or Aqualane Shores the worry is digging: burrows can undercut seawalls, sidewalks and foundations. The lizards also strip flowers and ornamental plants and leave droppings on docks and around pools. They do not eat citrus. Filling empty burrows, removing dense cover and putting metal guards on trunks and pilings are the UF-recommended deterrents.

Seasonal Pest Control in Naples

  1. In season, November to April

    Dry weather and daily highs around 74 degrees bring owners back. Native subterranean termites swarm on warm afternoons in late winter and early spring, and drywood termite flights begin in April. It is the best time for a full inspection, because someone is home to notice pellets, wings or ant trails.

  2. Before you leave, April to June

    Formosan termite swarms peak in May, gathering at lights after sunset. Have shrubs and palm fronds trimmed off the walls so ants lose their bridges, clear gutters, and empty or store anything that holds water. A pre-summer exterior treatment is worth scheduling now.

  3. Wet season, May to October

    Average highs sit near 92 degrees with frequent thundershowers. The mosquito district notes that Southwest Florida's heat and standing water can shorten the mosquito life cycle to five to seven days, so a forgotten bucket matters. Salt marsh broods, no-see-ums and ants stay busy while many homes are shuttered.

Naples Pest Control FAQ

Looking for pest control near you in Naples? Call (512) 561-7451 or request a free estimate.

Does a Naples home with drywood termites always need fumigation?

Not always. UF lists two ways to control an active drywood infestation: spot treatment, where the infested wood is drilled and treated, and fumigation of the whole structure. Spot work suits a colony confined to one reachable area. Fumigation is used when colonies are scattered or hidden. An inspection that maps the pellets and damage tells you which applies.

What are the tiny ants in my Naples kitchen?

Most often ghost ants or white-footed ants. A ghost ant is barely 1.5 millimeters long, dark in front and pale behind, and goes for sweets. White-footed ants are larger, black with yellowish feet, and trail in from trees and shrubs. Both build many connected nests, so sprays give short relief while baits placed along the trails do the real work.

How can I cut down no-see-ums on my Naples lanai?

Start with the screen. Regular window screen does not exclude biting midges, while mesh sold as no-see-um screen does. They bite mostly at dusk, overnight and in the morning, so plan lanai time around those hours and wear a DEET-based repellent, which UF names as the main repellent for midges. UF also reports that a bifenthrin barrier spray reduced numbers of the common coastal species.

Should I schedule service before I close my Naples house for the summer?

Yes, it is a good habit. Many Naples homes sit shut from April through October, which is when ants, termites and salt marsh insects stay busy. A pre-summer exterior treatment, trimmed shrubs and a termite check mean early signs do not go unseen. Ask for your free estimate before you leave.

What does service for a Naples home cost?

Plans start at $57, and the figure moves with the size of the property and whatever is active on it. Pools, patios and planted beds get eco-friendly products. Dial (512) 561-7451 or fill in the form on the website for the free estimate, and we will explain what we recommend.

Do you service Naples businesses and condos?

Yes. Our commercial service covers restaurants, shops, offices and hospitality properties, and we also work with condo and townhouse communities. We walk the grounds, landscaping and shaded edges first, then match the plan to the building, with a clear account of what we found each time.

Is a termite and pest inspection needed when buying a Naples home?

It is worth doing, especially on a house that has sat closed. Nobody sees pellets, shed wings or ant trails in an empty home. Our inspection for home sales checks roof framing, wood and the foundation, then writes up the results for both sides of the sale.

Naples, Florida

Why Naples Is a Hotspot for Pests

The 2020 census counted 18,225 housing units in Naples and found 46.1 percent of them vacant, a hint at how many houses here sit closed for part of the year. Termites, ants and mosquitoes keep no such schedule.

Naples is a Gulf-front city in Collier County with 19,115 residents at the 2020 census, a median age of 67 and a beach more than 10 miles long. It was founded in 1886, but much of what stands today came after World War II. Port Royal was dredged out of marshland beside Naples Bay in the 1950s, and the boat-access neighborhoods of Aqualane Shores, Park Shore and the Moorings followed. Elevation is about 7 feet.

The climate is tropical savanna: normally frost-free, hot and wet from May through October, dry and mild from November through April. Insects never get a killing winter, and the wet half of the year is when many owners are away. We build plans around that gap, with scheduled exterior service, termite checks and a plain account of what we found each time.

What Makes Naples Different for Pest Control

Closing up a Naples house for the summer

Local conditions decide where pests live and how they get in. These are the Naples details that shape every plan we write here.

  1. A house left empty through the wet months needs a different plan than one lived in all year. UF notes that the American cockroach, one of the big roaches nicknamed palmetto bug, gets into houses from the sewer through plumbing and from shrubs touching the walls, so we treat those points before you go. Fleas are the other surprise: pupae can wait in their cocoons for weeks and hatch when footsteps signal a host, which is how a vacant home can greet returning owners with bites.

  2. Naples calls itself the Golf Capital of the World, and turf brings its own visitors. Fire ants frequently invade lawns and golf courses, and bigheaded ants, confirmed in Collier County, leave loose sandy piles along pavers and walks. We use eco-friendly products around pools, patios and planted beds.
