Iguana removal in Lantana, FL
Lantana straddles the Lagoon, so the town splits into two problems. The mainland side has canal-fed yards, and Hypoluxo Island across the bridge is almost entirely seawall and dock.

Where iguanas cause trouble in Lantana
Hypoluxo Island is the hot zone. The homes there wrap around the Intracoastal and the finger canals off East Ocean Avenue, and the iguanas hollow out the seawall caps and nest under the docks and boat lifts. On the mainland, the yards backing the Lagoon near The Moorings get them coming straight off the water onto seawalls, while Seminole Manor and Lantana Heights deal more with the ditches and swales between streets. The riprap along the public boat ramp is another reliable den.
Most pressure in Lantana tracks the water — Lake Worth Lagoon, Intracoastal Waterway, finger canals. If your property backs up to any of it, burrowing and basking are almost certainly part of the picture, and the part that does the structural damage.
Lake Worth Lagoon seawalls
Iguanas bask on the cap at first light and dig dens straight into the bank until the wall starts to fail.
Burrows by foundations
Nesting burrows run under patios, driveways, and A/C pads — the hardscape settles and cracks above them.
Roofs, cages & lanais
They climb to bask on flat roofs and screens, then drop into pools and pool cages they can't climb out of.
Fruit trees & thick beds
Hibiscus, sea grape, and any fruit tree are both a buffet and a hideout right up against the house.
How we work in Lantana
The property mix runs from waterfront estates on the island to modest inland homes, so we scope each one differently. On seawall properties we focus on the burrows undercutting the cap; inland we work the canal line and the yard.
The method is the same one that earned our 5.0 across the county, and it stays inside FWC guidelines from the first walk to the follow-up:
- 1
Free property walk
We map the seawall, yard, and roofline to find the burrows, runs, and basking spots before we quote a dollar.
- 2
Humane removal
Reachable iguanas come off by hand and catch-pole — no poisons, no air-rifle theatrics near homes.
- 3
Monitored trapping
Traps go on the exact runs iguanas use, checked on a schedule and cleared promptly under FWC rules.
- 4
Prevention
Burrow collapse, tree wraps, and piling guards cut off the routes so the property stops refilling.
We cover the whole county.
Lantana is one of the cities we work end to end from our Lake Worth base. If your problem sits over a city line, pick the nearest one for its local rundown.
Every part of the job, in one place.
Removal is where most Lantana calls start, but the fix usually runs through trapping and prevention — and we handle the rest of the county's nuisance wildlife too.

Got iguanas in Lantana?
Call or text Nick — he'll tell you what's going on and what it takes, straight.
Call (561) 735-1975The iguanas are digging into my seawall on Hypoluxo Island. Can that be stopped?
Yes, and it's worth acting early. The burrows run back under the cap and cause it to crack and settle. We remove the animals and target the den sites along your waterline before the damage spreads.
Do you cover both the island and the mainland side of Lantana?
Both. We work the seawall and dock properties on Hypoluxo Island and the canal-and-swale yards on the mainland the same day if needed.
What does a first visit cost in Lantana?
Single visits start at $125. Most waterfront homes do better on a monthly program from $99, since the Intracoastal keeps sending new ones. The property walk is free.
