Iguana removal in Boca Raton

Iguana removal in Boca Raton

Iguana removal in Boca Raton — Intracoastal and Spanish River canal seawalls, gated-community lakes, and the pool-cage calls that spike every summer.

Canal-and-HOA country

Boca Raton is canal-and-HOA country, and that shapes the work. The heaviest pressure runs along the Intracoastal and the Spanish River canal system — the seawalls in Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club and The Sanctuary take constant bank burrowing and dock basking, and Lake Wyman feeds animals up and down that stretch. West of the Turnpike, in Mission Bay and Boca Bath & Tennis, it flips to retention lakes and golf-adjacent lawns fed by the El Rio Canal.

The ZIP spread tells the same story: 33432 and 33487 near the water, 33433, 33434, and 33496 out in the gated communities, 33431 and 33486 around the university and the older interior blocks. Different habitat, same species — but the plan changes street to street.

The summer pool-cage run

Every summer we get a run of pool-cage and screen-enclosure calls, where an iguana gets inside a lanai and can't climb back out. We remove the trapped animal first, then find and seal the entry points along the screen and roofline so it stops happening — usually a torn spline, a gap at the roof return, or a missing kick-plate.

  • Screen-enclosure and pool-cage extraction
  • Entry-point sealing along the screen and roofline
  • Seawall and dock clearing on Intracoastal estates
  • Retention-lake bank work in Mission Bay and Boca Falls

Working with boards and managers

A large share of our Boca work is community common areas, so we're comfortable presenting a plan to a board and keeping the service records a property manager needs on file. On estate waterfront we stay discreet, and everything is FWC-compliant and humane. Whether it's one seawall or miles of shared lake bank, we scale the plan to the property. Our Boca Raton service area page at /service-areas/boca-raton has the neighborhoods, ZIPs, and canal-by-canal detail.

Common questions

Do you work with Boca HOAs and property managers?

Yes — a big part of our Boca work is community common areas, retention lakes, and shared seawalls, with written plans and service records boards can keep on file.

Iguanas keep getting into my pool cage. What can you do?

We remove the ones trapped inside, then find and seal the entry points along the screen and roofline so it stops happening. It's one of the most common Boca calls in summer.

Which parts of Boca do you cover?

All of it — the Intracoastal communities east of Federal, the country-club neighborhoods, and the family communities west of the Turnpike like Mission Bay and Boca Falls.
