West Park is a small city west of Pembroke Park, along Pembroke Road and State Road 7. Its older single-family block homes from the 1950s and 1960s give roof rats attics, palms and shrubs to use, which makes the roof line the first place to check in most visits.
West Park is a small city west of Pembroke Park, laid out along Pembroke Road and State Road 7 and US 441. It is a quiet residential place, and most of its housing is older single-family block homes from the 1950s and 1960s.
Those houses are old enough that their roof lines, eaves and attic access points have been weathering for decades, and roof rats find the gaps there easily. Roof rats are the rodent pest that the state's extension service calls the most serious in Florida, and they use attics, palms and shrubs across South Florida. A visit to a West Park house therefore starts at the roof and works down, and the termite check at the wood and the ground line follows.
Fort Lauderdale rarely sees a freeze, so termites, roaches, ants, mosquitoes and roof rats stay active in every month; the mid-May to mid-October rainy season and June to November hurricane season decide which one is calling this week.
Roof rats enter an older house through gaps where the roof meets the wall, at the eaves, around vents and in damaged soffits. Once inside the roof space they nest in insulation and gnaw wiring and rafters, which is why an attic is the most common place a homeowner first hears them.
A technician checks those entry points first, then the palms and shrubs that touch the roof. Sealing the gaps is usually the most lasting step, and the owner is told which of those can be done from outside and which need a roofer or a contractor.
Yes. Older block houses have wood at the roof edge, the window trim and the porch, and that wood has been exposed for a long time. A technician checks the wood for drywood activity and the ground line for subterranean termites, and gives a clear account of what was found.
Where a termite treatment is needed, the findings decide between a targeted treatment and a larger one, and the price is confirmed on site before any work starts.
Roof rats nest in attics and palms and enter older roofs at the eaves and vents.

Night noises in an attic are often roof rats, which are active after dark and nest in roof spaces. A technician will check the roof line and attic for signs and entry points, and explain the next step.
Sealing is the most lasting step, but rats can still come in if new gaps open or if the planting touching the roof is not trimmed. A technician will suggest what to do on the house and in the yard.
Yes. Older block homes have wood at the roof edge and trim that can host drywood termites, and the ground line should be checked for subterranean termites. Call (855) 974-4733 to book one visit that covers both.
