Iguana Removal\u00a0Destin<\/h1>\n

\"iguanaIguanas are Florida’s non native species of reptiles that are can be destructive and cause damage.<\/p>\n

\n

Due to the exotic pet trade of released or escaped captive iguanas, these large herbivores are able to survive, reproduce, and thrive in Florida’s environment. The Green Iguana, Mexican Spiny Tailed Iguana, and Black Spiny Tailed Iguana are nuisance exotic species that will consume nearly anything around your home or garden. Greater Destin and Central Florida’s warm climates, abundant food ( vegetation, ornamentals, plants), and lack of predators around many residential neighborhoods, make a perfect habitat for the Iguana.<\/p>\n
