Pest control in a village built on water
North Palm Beach is a village built on dredged land. Village builders cut about 20 canals and 3 lakes out of the shoreline, and the result is a place where a lot of the homes have a dock out back. It sits at the north end of the Lake Worth Lagoon, close to the Palm Beach Inlet.
Frontline Pest Control is first responder owned and operated and dually certified in General Household Pest Control and Lawn & Ornamental care. We have served northern Palm Beach County for over 20 years. If you need an exterminator in North Palm Beach, we can get to the pests inside and out.

Why North Palm Beach homes get these pests
Water touches almost everything here. Neighborhoods such as Hidden Key sit on Little Lake Worth, with waterfront homes on canals. Harbour Point has canal and marina views, and Old Port Cove Marina and the North Palm Beach Marina bring boats and docks into neighborhoods. Canal banks and docks give mosquitoes and roaches ideal shelter.
The village bought its country club and golf course in 1962, and today the North Palm Beach Country Club is a centerpiece. Some condos face the Intracoastal on one side and the golf course on the other. Golf turf, sprinklers and nearby ponds produce damp edges where insects thrive.
John D. MacArthur Beach State Park, 438 acres of coastal habitat on Jack Nicklaus Drive, has a North Palm Beach address. It is the only state park in Palm Beach County, and its mangroves and hammock mean wild insects close to nearby neighborhoods.
Boating adds its own quirks. Boat lifts, dock boxes and covered storage along the water are places where spiders and roaches settle, and they are easy to forget when you are focused on the house. We look at those spots, too.
Pest control and lawn care for North Palm Beach homes
Most lawns are flat St. Augustine, and with sprinklers running along canal edges, fungus and chinch bugs can show up together. A thin, yellow patch that does not respond to watering is the thing to watch for.
For waterfront homes we treat the house and perimeter, then look at dock areas, seawalls and plant beds where bugs hide.
If you have a pool, a dock or a boat shed, mention it. These are the areas where pests tend to hide, and it helps us walk the property in the right order.
