Cape Canaveral’s coastal environment, characterized by high humidity and salty air, creates unique challenges for pest control. The constant moisture and subtropical temperatures provide ideal breeding grounds for numerous insects and rodents, driving them indoors as they seek more stable environments away from the elements.
Cockroaches: Cape Canaveral’s humid climate is a paradise for cockroaches, particularly the large American and smokybrown species, often called palmetto bugs. These pests actively invade homes through drainage systems, garages, and foundation cracks, seeking food and shelter. They rapidly multiply, establishing entrenched infestations in kitchens and bathrooms.
Termites: Cape Canaveral sits firmly within a high-risk termite zone. Both subterranean and drywood termites relentlessly attack homes here. Subterranean termites require continuous moisture, which the coastal humidity provides, enabling them to inflict significant structural damage year-round. Consistent professional monitoring is crucial.
