Elite Reptile Removal serves Broward County from the Intracoastal in Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood west to the Everglades boundary at Weston and Southwest Ranches. We handle iguanas, snakes, dead-animal odors and exclusion work for houses, gated communities, HOAs and commercial properties.
Same-day service is available, with emergency requests prioritized.
Elite Reptile Removal works directly with Broward associations and management companies on retention-lake and canal banks in Plantation, Sunrise, Davie, Miramar, Coral Springs and Weston. Because the banks are usually common property, we survey the whole shoreline, remove and close burrows, and set a recurring schedule rather than treating one yard. Call (305) 587-5312 to arrange a community assessment.
Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Dania Beach and Pompano are built around navigable canals with hard seawalls and narrow rear yards. Iguanas move along those walls between properties, so a single yard rarely stays clear on its own — work here is most effective when neighbours or the association treat a stretch of bank together.
Weston, Southwest Ranches, west Pembroke Pines and Miramar sit against water-conservation areas and levees. That boundary sends native snakes, including cottonmouths near water, into lakeside yards and screened enclosures. Exclusion here focuses on pool-cage seams, garage thresholds and irrigation valve boxes.
Much of central Broward — Plantation, Sunrise, Davie, Coral Springs, Miramar — is organised around retention lakes with maintained banks. Those banks are prime iguana burrow habitat and are usually common property, which means the association, not the individual homeowner, is the right point of contact for lasting results.
Broward's mid-century housing in Hollywood, Wilton Manors and Oakland Park has open soffits, gable vents and low attic clearance. Animals get in, die in wall voids or over ceilings, and the odor is what prompts the call — so the job is location, removal, cleanup and sealing the entry rather than trapping alone.
Native snakes and eligible wildlife are captured safely and relocated when legally permitted.
Invasive species such as green iguanas and tegus are handled humanely in accordance with current Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) requirements.
Pricing depends on the property size, level of activity, access conditions, required trapping or exclusion work, and whether ongoing service is needed. Contact us for a quote.
The seawalled canal blocks of Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood and Dania Beach, plus the retention-lake banks in Plantation, Sunrise, Davie and Miramar. Warm, exposed banks next to fruiting or flowering landscaping hold the most animals.
Yes. Community work usually starts with a walk of the common areas and lake banks, followed by a written plan, scheduled visits and documentation the board can share with residents. Emergency calls from managed communities are prioritised.
The Florida cottonmouth is found near canals and lake edges in the western communities, and pygmy rattlesnakes and coral snakes turn up occasionally. Most calls still turn out to be harmless racers or rat snakes, but species should be confirmed by a technician, not by a homeowner up close.
We fill and compact burrows, close gaps behind seawall caps and pool decks, and flag any spot where a wall or slab appears to have been undermined so the property can bring in a marine or structural contractor.
