Common issues in Palmetto Bay homes

Palmetto Bay features many homes built in the 1970s, often in neighborhoods near Biscayne Bay View and Cocoplum. The area has seen multiple Miami-Dade County hail and damaging-wind events over the past decade. This can weaken building exteriors and allow pest entry. The presence of water nearby encourages mosquitoes and wildlife that look for shelter in homes. Aging materials and storm exposure combine to create ongoing pest challenges for homeowners.

• Storm damage. Wind and hail can damage siding and roofing, letting pests enter through new cracks or holes.
• Aging construction. Older homes may have gaps and worn seals that provide access points for rodents and insects.
• Moisture issues. Water intrusion or poor drainage around foundations attracts termites and mosquitoes.
• Nearby wildlife. Local wildlife seeks shelter in attics, crawl spaces, and yards, causing nuisance and damage.
• Insect infestations. Common pests like ants, roaches, and bed bugs thrive in residential environments year-round.
