The Acreage is Palm Beach County’s big-sky country — a vast unincorporated community where one-acre lots are the starting point, not the exception. No city hall, no municipal bustle: just room to breathe, horses in side yards, and some of the darkest night skies left in South Florida. Out here the line between backyard and wild Florida is thin.
One-acre-plus lots with ranch-style and custom homes, barns, sheds, and workshops; many properties keep horses, chickens, or small livestock. If you live or work in The Acreage, here’s what you should know — and how we can help.

Common Pests in The Acreage
Mosquitoes breed in the canals, ditches, and low spots that pattern the area after every rain. Fire ants mound across open lots and pastures, and the rural-wildlife interface means roof rats, raccoons, and opossums den in barns and outbuildings — we do exclusion work, not just spraying. Subterranean termites are a constant threat to wood framing on large lots.
- Ants — including carpenter ants and fire ants
- Cockroaches — American (palmetto bugs) and German cockroaches
- Termites — subterranean and drywood termite control and inspections
- Rodents — roof rats and mice, with exclusion to keep them out
- Mosquitoes — barrier treatments so you can use your yard again
- Spiders, silverfish, fleas, ticks, bed bugs, wasps & hornets

Frequently Asked Questions
How often do I need pest control service in Florida?
Because pests stay active year-round in South Florida, most The Acreage properties do best on a recurring plan (typically quarterly), with free re-treatments between visits if pests return.
Do you handle termites in The Acreage?
Yes — subterranean and drywood termites, including inspections. In Florida, an annual termite inspection is cheap insurance against one of the costliest pests a property can face.
I’m seeing palmetto bugs — can you help?
Absolutely. Palmetto bugs (American cockroaches) thrive in The Acreage’s warm, humid environment, coming in from sewers, mulch beds, and palm trees. We eliminate the current population and treat the entry points and harborage areas so they stop coming back.
Do you offer mosquito control in The Acreage?
Yes. Our mosquito barrier treatments target the shaded resting areas around your yard, dramatically cutting down bites so you can actually enjoy your outdoor space again during mosquito season — which, in South Florida, is most of the year.
