Pest Challenges Unique to Mary Esther
Mary Esther sits along Santa Rosa Sound between Fort Walton Beach and Navarre — a narrow coastal strip where waterfront homes, older neighborhoods, and high humidity combine to create significant pest pressure. The sound creates ideal mosquito breeding conditions. Older homes throughout Mary Esther have mature landscaping and crawl spaces that attract termites and rodents. Coastal salt air accelerates wood deterioration, creating additional termite entry points. We know these neighborhoods and we know what to look for.

Frequently Asked Questions — Pest Control in Mary Esther, FL
What pests are most common in Mary Esther, FL?
The most frequent pest issues we handle in Mary Esther include subterranean termites, German cockroaches, mosquitoes, fire ants, and rodents — especially in older homes with mature landscaping near the sound.
Do older homes in Mary Esther have more termite risk?
Yes. Older construction typically has more wood-to-soil contact, weathered wood entry points, and mature landscaping — all of which increase termite risk. We recommend annual termite inspections for any home in Mary Esther over 20 years old.
How much does pest control cost in Mary Esther?
Quarterly general pest control for a typical Mary Esther home runs $80–$120 per visit. We always provide a free estimate before work begins. Call (850) 682-4333 to schedule.
Do you treat waterfront properties along Santa Rosa Sound?
Yes. We have experience with waterfront properties and the elevated pest pressure they face — including mosquitoes, wood-boring insects near dock structures, and termite risk from coastal moisture. We tailor our approach to your specific property.
How often should I get pest control in Mary Esther?
Quarterly is the standard recommendation for most homes in Okaloosa County. Coastal homes near the sound may benefit from more frequent service given elevated mosquito and moisture-related pest pressure.
Do you require a contract?
No. Cadenhead Services has never required long-term contracts. Our recurring plans are flexible and you can cancel or adjust anytime. We earn your business through results.
