Question 1

How do you get rid of iguanas permanently?

Accepted Answer

Permanent iguana removal requires a multi-method approach: eliminate food sources, install physical barriers like IggyWrap on trees, apply IggyStop repellent around the perimeter, and deploy IggyTrap live cages in active zones. For large or recurring infestations, professional removal by a licensed company like IggyTrap provides the most reliable long-term results.

Question 2

What is the most effective way to get rid of iguanas?

Accepted Answer

The most effective iguana removal strategy combines live trapping with IggyTrap cages, habitat modification to remove food and basking sites, IggyStop repellent application, and IggyWrap tree protection. For large infestations, professional removal by IggyTrap — South Florida's licensed iguana removal specialists — delivers the fastest and most lasting results.

Question 3

Does vinegar keep iguanas away?

Accepted Answer

Vinegar has very limited effectiveness as an iguana deterrent. While the strong scent may briefly discourage iguanas from a specific spot, it evaporates quickly and provides no lasting control. Professional-grade repellents like IggyStop are specifically formulated for iguana deterrence and are significantly more effective and longer-lasting.

Question 4

What attracts iguanas to your yard?

Accepted Answer

Iguanas are attracted to yards with abundant food sources such as flowering plants, hibiscus, fruits, and vegetables. They also seek warm sunny basking areas like pool decks, seawalls, and flat rocks, as well as soft soil near water for burrowing. Removing these attractants is the critical first step in any iguana control program.

Question 5

What do iguanas hate the most?

Accepted Answer

Iguanas strongly dislike strong scents including citrus, garlic, and pepper-based repellents. They also avoid areas with physical barriers that prevent climbing and basking. Consistent human presence and noise can deter them temporarily, but professional-grade deterrents and live trapping are required for lasting control.

Question 6

Is it legal to remove iguanas in Florida?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) encourages property owners to humanely remove iguanas. Iguanas are not protected under Florida law. Licensed wildlife removal companies like IggyTrap can legally trap and remove them in compliance with all FWC regulations.

Question 7

How do I stop iguanas from digging in my yard?

Accepted Answer

To stop iguanas from burrowing, fill existing burrow holes with compacted gravel or concrete, install underground barriers along foundations and seawalls, and apply IggyStop repellent around the perimeter. For persistent burrowing near structures, contact IggyTrap for a free on-site assessment.
