roaches
thinking of moving to Florida which I never ever thought I would until I visited the Villages. How is the "bug" situation down there I know tropical but roaches really freak me out? What is the truth at the Villages??

We got'em. Not anymore of a problem here than anywhere else. Should be way down (or off) your list.
Some folks have a professional service spray the perimeter of their homes, others do it themselves.

We have a pest service and I think we've seen four roaches in eight years. Lost count of the anoles, though!

if you spray,, and pay someone to do it,, they will guarantee you will be bug free,, and will come back and re-apply to the point you will be at risk for cancer!
if your looking for a reason to not move,, you can use the bug issue, but it really is not a big problem. |

I can't stand those bugs and they scare me to death. What about SINK HOLES, I would like info on that too.

I lived in SW FL for 23 years before coming here, so I'm fairly immune to the Florida pests. I have to say, I have not seen 1 roach since I have been in The Villages...April was a year. Really....NOWHERE! NOT NEVER!! I am shocked. And just recently our little anole population seems to be growing.

The black running snakes ( and common sense) take care of most of the roaches...it is the fruit rats you have to be worried about.

lived her six years and have never seen a roach or a spider. We use Massey for pest control. Have a few ants here and there, but one phone call takes care of that.

We have been here 12 years and there are many factors that contribute to bugs. I hate the roaches or some like to make them seem nice and call them Palmettos. We have had many pest control companies since we moved here and there were times I saw quite few roaches! We have used Massey for a couple of years now and haven't had much of a problem but even with pest control they can and do get in it's just pretty rare. They love palm trees! I've only seen the common house spiders not the dangerous ones but they also do exist! Most pest control places will not guarantee you won't see spiders even Massey. Then yes there's the darn snakes....ugh The anoles you will learn to co-exist with no getting away from them, I've been told if you don't see them much there most likely is a snake nearby. So I like seeing them LOL And I see way more bugs down here than I ever did up north!. That said I love it her

Did anybody really think that 110,000 people have roaches running rampant ?
