Lake Worth Beach is one of Palm Beach County’s most eclectic and culturally rich communities — a small, dense city with a vibrant arts scene, a busy restaurant strip along Lake Avenue, charming older bungalows and cottages, and proximity to the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. It’s also a city where South Florida’s year-round pest pressures are felt strongly, particularly given the age of its housing stock and the density of its development. Alco Pest Control has been serving Lake Worth Beach homes, restaurants, and businesses for over 27 years.
From roof rats in an older beachside bungalow to cockroaches in a Lake Avenue restaurant kitchen to termites in a 1950s-era home — we know Lake Worth Beach’s pest challenges and we know how to eliminate them.

Why Lake Worth Beach Has Year-Round Pest Pressure
Lake Worth Beach’s older housing stock is one of its defining characteristics — and one of its biggest pest vulnerability factors. Many of the city’s homes were built between the 1940s and 1970s, with aging rooflines, older wood construction, and limited original termite protection. These properties face elevated risk from both subterranean termites and roof rats, which use the city’s mature trees to access rooftops.
Lake Worth Beach’s proximity to the Intracoastal Waterway, its canals, and its coastal location generate consistent mosquito pressure. The city’s active restaurant and bar scene along Lake Avenue makes commercial cockroach management a constant priority. And Lake Worth Beach’s dense, small-lot urban layout means pest problems spread quickly between neighboring properties without professional intervention.
Our Pest Control Services in Lake Worth Beach
Rat & Rodent Control
Roof rats are a persistent problem in Lake Worth Beach, particularly in the city’s older neighborhoods where aging rooflines and mature trees give them easy access to attics and soffits. Our rodent program covers full property inspection, entry point identification and sealing, bait station installation, and targeted trapping. We follow up until the infestation is fully resolved.
Cockroach & Ant Extermination
Lake Worth Beach’s restaurant and bar corridor along Lake Avenue faces significant cockroach pressure in commercial kitchen environments. Our extermination program uses commercial-grade gel baiting and residual treatments to eliminate German cockroach colonies and prevent re-establishment. We also treat for American cockroaches, ghost ants, fire ants, and white-footed ants throughout Lake Worth Beach homes and businesses.
Termite Inspection & Treatment
Lake Worth Beach’s older housing stock is among the most termite-vulnerable in Palm Beach County. Homes built before 1980 often have limited or no current termite protection and should be inspected regularly. Our termite program includes full inspections, Termidor liquid soil treatment, and Sentricon baiting systems. WDO inspection reports available for real estate transactions.
Bed Bug Treatment
Lake Worth Beach’s short-term rentals, older apartment buildings, and active visitor traffic create pathways for bed bug introduction. Our heat and chemical treatment protocols eliminate bed bugs at every life stage with discreet, professional service.
Mosquito Control
Lake Worth Beach’s Intracoastal proximity and coastal location generate consistent mosquito breeding activity. Our mosquito program treats larval breeding sources and applies residual barrier sprays to vegetation around your property. Monthly maintenance programs keep outdoor dining areas and residential spaces comfortable.
Restaurant & Commercial Pest Control
Lake Avenue, Dixie Highway, and the surrounding streets are home to Lake Worth Beach’s celebrated independent restaurant and bar scene. Alco Pest Control provides monthly commercial pest management with full Palm Beach County health inspection documentation, after-hours scheduling, and discreet service that never affects your guests’ experience.
Apartment & Multi-Unit Pest Control
Lake Worth Beach’s dense urban layout includes a significant number of older apartment buildings and multi-unit properties. We work with property managers to coordinate building-wide treatments, communicate with residents, and deliver thorough coverage across units and common areas.
