What we see here

Lots in Naples Park sit close together, so ant and roach pressure moves between properties and a treatment that stops at the property line does not hold long.

A high share of rentals means turnover, which is how bed bugs and German cockroaches travel here.

Mature ficus and sea grape along the streets carry whitefly through the growing season.
