We also have a condo in So Fla and have had to remove 3 gators in my 15 years living here. It's not pleasant. Certainly not a good thing for children to view. We find that as a big one is removed, a smaller one moves in almost immediately and lives here most of it's life. They don't really bother anyone as long as NO ONE feeds them. When they reach 8' or 8'6" we have to remove them for the safety of our residents and or small children who may be visiting grandparents. We also have turtles and they do just fine if left alone. Possibly they should post signs about feeding the gators as LSL?
Problem solved!
