Where iguanas cause trouble in Sunrise
The C-42 canal along Hiatus Road, tracked by the Greenway, is a main corridor, and animals push from it into the retention lakes across Welleby and Springtree. The lakes behind Waterford Crossings and the older canals through Sunrise Lakes hold steady populations, and the water features near Sawgrass see pressure as landscaping matures. Seawall and lake-bank burrowing is where damage shows up first here.
Most pressure in Sunrise tracks the water — C-42 canal (Hiatus Road Greenway), North New River canal system, Springtree lakes, Community retention lakes. 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.
C-42 canal (Hiatus Road Greenway) 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 Sunrise
Sunrise leans heavily on condo associations, gated communities, and HOA-managed lakes, so much of our work is association lake-bank programs plus homeowners on canal frontage. We start with a free property walk, map the burrows and basking spots, then trap and monitor on a set schedule.
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.
Sunrise 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 Sunrise calls start, but the fix usually runs through trapping and prevention — and we handle the rest of the county's nuisance wildlife too.

Sunrise iguana removal questions.
Got iguanas in Sunrise?
Call or text Nick — he'll tell you what's going on and what it takes, straight.
Call (561) 735-1975Our HOA lake in Welleby has a real iguana problem. Do you set up community programs?
Yes. We run lake-bank programs billed to the association, with scheduled visits and gate coordination. Monitored programs start at $99/mo.
Can iguanas actually damage our canal bank?
Yes. Their burrows undercut seawalls and lake banks and can collapse the slope over time, which is why we target active burrows first during the free walk.
Do you offer one-time visits in Sunrise?
Yes. A single visit from $125 clears what's currently on the property. If they keep arriving off the C-42 or the canal system, we'll set up monitoring.
