Several species of ants are found in or around houses in Florida. The most commonly encountered pest ants are pharaoh, ghost, carpenter, native fire, imported fire, crazy, thief, acrobat, and big-headed ants.
ANTS
Spiders belong to the class Arachnida, which contains organisms with four pairs of legs, no antennae and two body regions. A shield-like carapace covers the head and the area from which the legs arise. Their mouthparts, or chelicerae, function vertically.
SPIDERS
Roaches, also known as waterbugs, croton bugs or palmetto bugs, are very common in Florida. Another common roach found in Florida is the German Roach.
ROACHES
SILVERFISH
Primarily a nuisance pest inside the home or buildings; can contaminate food, damage paper goods and stain clothing; medically harmless. Many of their habits are similar to cockroaches and they appear to be more common as household pests in drier parts of the state.
Earwigs are generally nocturnal and can be seen patrolling household walls and ceilings.
They tend to gather in shady cracks or openings or anywhere that they can remain concealed in daylight hours.
EARWIGS
External parasites are generally found on or in the skin and are important pests because they bite or annoy both humans and their pets.
Fleas, mange mites, and ticks are the most frequently encountered and most troublesome pests that attack humans and their pets.
FLEAS & TICKS
Wasps perform a valuable service in destroying many insects that attack cultivated and ornamental plants. However, nests near homes may prove a source of irritation.
Bees simply defending their territory. If people disturb the hive or if a hive is accidentally disturbed, the bees are likely to react adversely.
BEES, PAPER WASPS & YELLOW JACKETS
Rats are important rodent pests entering Florida homes and warehouses for food and harborage. These rodents eat any kind of food that people eat.
They also contaminate 10 times as much food as they eat and carry at least 10 different kinds of diseases including rabies, and bacterial food poisoning.
RODENTS
Drain flies are a common nuisance in/around homes and commercial buildings, including sewage treatment plants.
Since these flies often originate in unsanitary conditions, there is the possibility of disease transmission that can affect human health.
DRAIN FLIES
Subterranean termites are the most destructive and frequently encountered kind of termite found throughout the state. Although they nest in soil, subterranean termites can attack structures by building tubes that connect their nest to wood in structures.
SUBTERRANEAN TERMITES
Unlike subterranean termites, drywood termites spend almost their entire life cycle inside the sound, dry wood members upon which they feed.
Winged adults or "swarmers", shed wings, ejected pellets, and galleries inside wood are typical signs of a drywood termite infestation.
DRYWOOD TERMITES
One of the most destructive termite species in the world today. In the United States it causes tremendous property damage resulting in enormous treatment and repair costs.
They have large colonies, infest a wide variety of structures and the territory of a single colony can be up to 300 feet.
FORMOSAN TERMITES
Because of their moisture requirements, structural infestations of dampwood termites are associated with sources of free water. These include wood-to-soil contact, wood exposed to roof leaks, or wooden siding or ornamentation exposed to rainfall or sprinkler irrigation.
