Iguana Trapping

Humane Iguana Control is committed to providing effective and humane iguana trapping solutions for residential and commercial properties. Our iguana trapping services aim to solve the problems caused by large numbers of iguanas, especially in areas where they have caused damage to plants and property. Through the strategic placement of traps and the use of advanced trapping technology, we aim to reduce iguana populations while minimizing disruption to the surrounding environment.

Why We Need To Trap Iguanas

When infestations of iguanas are present, trapping is a sure way to keep the infestation in check! As iguanas proliferate areas in south Florida, you may begin to see iguanas more often around your home or business. Having iguanas around can bring tons of problems including plant damages, property and potential health risks. Utilizing various types of traps can immediately stop iguanas in their tracks which will avoid unnecessary damages and health risks. Using a pellet rifle may not be authorized in may places such as parks and schools which is why we utilize various types of humane traps to capture iguanas.

Innovative Traps

Traps sold from manufacturers do not have the capability of capturing multiple iguanas at once. This is when we decided to create our own custom repeating traps that can catch 20 to 40 iguanas at once. Our innovative traps have shown promising results as we have diminished infestations in a matter of weeks. One particular trap we are fawned of is our iguana decolonizer trap! This massive trap measures 6 ft in length by 4 feet in width with 6 entrances. Placing this trap in areas where infestations are large can decolonize iguana populations quickly. Other traps we have customized are smaller but also have the capability of capturing multiple iguanas at once. As we grow we will continue to innovate new ideas which will have great results for commercial and residential properties that are being impacted by invasive iguanas

Trapping Assessment

Our approach to iguana trapping begins with a comprehensive assessment of the property to identify areas affected by iguanas and where they defecate, marking these as hotspots for trapping activity. With a meticulous observation and thorough record-keeping of iguana behavior, encompassing their feeding habits, nesting tendencies, and defecation patterns, we can precisely identify the optimal spots to strategically position traps. This targeted approach ensures that our trapping efforts are focused on areas where iguana presence is most pronounced, increasing the likelihood of successful capture while minimizing impact on unaffected areas.

Trapping Methods

In our iguana trapping process, we employ both single traps and multi-traps to effectively address the varying needs and challenges posed by different properties. Single traps are strategically placed in specific locations to target individual iguanas, offering a focused approach to capturing problematic individuals. These traps are carefully positioned in areas where iguana traffic is high and evidence of their presence, such as feces, is observed, maximizing the chances of successful capture.

Strategic Trapping

In instances where the iguana population is particularly dense or widespread, we utilize multi-traps, which are capable of capturing multiple iguanas simultaneously. These larger traps offer an efficient and practical solution for properties with a high concentration of iguanas, allowing for the simultaneous capture of up to 20 iguanas at a time. By using multi-traps strategically in areas with high iguana traffic, we can significantly reduce population sizes and address the challenge of managing large numbers of iguanas in a single operation.

Is Trapping Humane?

At Humane Iguana Control, our trapping methods are designed to prioritize the humane treatment of iguanas while effectively addressing property-related concerns. We understand the impact that iguanas can have on landscaping, gardens, and other vegetation, and our trapping efforts are aimed at mitigating these damages in a responsible and ethical manner. By strategically placing traps in areas affected by iguanas and leveraging advanced trapping technology, we can achieve successful capture outcomes while minimizing unnecessary harm to non-targeted wildlife and the broader ecosystem.

Trapping Laws & Guidelines

Our commitment to humane iguana trapping extends beyond the capture process, as we also prioritize the safe and ethical handling of captured iguanas. Once trapped, the iguanas are removed immediately as recommended by the FWC. This ensures that captured iguanas do not suffer by being left inside traps. Once iguanas are removed they are humanely euthanized are required by law. 

Final Thoughts to Consider

Iguana trapping services have been proven to capture iguanas effectively in all circumstances. From iguanas around pools to iguanas on roofs, our methods of strategic trapping have been proven to be very effective. Schools in particular have been helped tremendously with iguana infestations by our innovative multi traps. This safe service is unnoticeable due to properly hiding traps in areas that are away from children. As mentioned earlier, other methods are not feasible due to liability reasons which is why we trap iguanas in all types of properties.
