Iguana Removal & Control in South Florida

Green iguanas are one of South Florida's most destructive invasive species — and one of our most-requested removals. They dig burrows that collapse seawalls, sidewalks and pool decks, devour ornamental landscaping and fruit, leave droppings across patios and docks, and multiply fast along every canal and lake in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. Florida Wildlife Pros removes iguanas humanely and puts a real control program in place so they don't come right back.

Because green iguanas are a non-native, invasive species in Florida, they are not protected the way native wildlife is — which means an effective, ongoing removal program is both legal and highly recommended for waterfront properties. The problem is that iguanas breed quickly and travel the water's edge, so trapping a few today does nothing if the burrows, food sources and access routes are still there tomorrow. That's why we combine removal with prevention.

Our approach starts with an inspection of your seawall, landscaping and waterline to locate burrows, basking spots and travel corridors. We then deploy targeted trapping and hands-on removal sized to the infestation, and we advise on habitat modification — burrow collapse and exclusion, plant selection, and barrier options — so the property becomes far less attractive to the next wave of iguanas.

For HOAs, waterfront communities and golf courses, iguana pressure is relentless and a one-time visit won't hold. We build recurring iguana-management programs that keep populations knocked down year-round, protect expensive seawall and hardscape investments, and give residents and members a single number to call.

Why Iguana Removal Isn't a DIY Job

It's tempting to try to handle a wildlife problem yourself, but iguana removal done wrong usually makes things worse — and in South Florida it can be genuinely dangerous or even illegal. The animal you're dealing with behaves in specific ways: where it dens and travels, what draws it in, and how it reacts when cornered. Get that wrong and you risk injury, an animal trapped and dying inside your walls, orphaned young, contamination, or a citation for mishandling a regulated species. Decades of hands-on South Florida experience is exactly what turns a risky guessing game into a fast, clean, permanent fix.
