The short version
Pest Control Cost — local ranges
Pest control and lawn care don't have one price — a one-time ant treatment and a whole-home termite job aren't the same. The ranges below reflect typical residential service across Palm Beach County and South Florida in 2026. In our climate, recurring plans usually cost less over the year than repeated one-time calls.
| Service | What it covers | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| One-time pest treatment | Interior + exterior for common pests | $150–$400 |
| Quarterly pest plan (per visit) | Recurring general pest control | $80–$150 |
| Annual pest plan | Prepaid year of general pest control | $400–$700 |
| Lawn treatment (per visit) | Fertilization + weed control | $50–$120 |
| Annual lawn program | 6–8 treatments per year | $400–$800 |
| Termite inspection (WDO) | Wood-destroying-organism report | $75–$150 |
| Termite spot treatment | Localized / barrier | $250–$900 |
| Whole-home termite treatment | Tenting/fumigation or full barrier | $1,200–$3,000+ |
| Mosquito or rodent add-on | Per service or plan | $50–$150 |

What moves the number
Five things that decide your price
1. What pest and how bad
General ants and roaches are routine; termites, mosquitoes, rodents, and lawn fungus are specialized. Severity matters too — an established infestation takes more than a preventive visit.
2. One-time vs. recurring
A quarterly or annual plan costs less per visit than repeated one-time calls, and it prevents re-infestation. In South Florida's warm, humid climate pest pressure is nearly year-round, so recurring is usually the better value.
3. Property size and type
Square footage drives pest pricing; lot size drives lawn pricing. A large single-family home with a big yard costs more than a townhome, and gated or hard-to-access properties add time.
4. Season and location
Palm Beach County's humidity and warm winters mean pests never fully die back. Rainy season spikes mosquitoes and lawn disease, and coastal properties see their own pest patterns.
5. Lawn condition and turf
St. Augustine turf, common here, needs a specific fertilization and pest program, and a neglected or diseased lawn costs more to bring back than a healthy one to maintain.
How to keep the cost down
The cheapest pest control is prevention. A recurring plan catches problems before they become infestations, and a maintained lawn resists the disease and weeds that are expensive to fix later. Seal entry points, fix moisture issues, and keep mulch and wood away from the foundation to reduce pressure between visits.
The place not to cut: a bargain termite 'treatment' with no warranty, or a one-time spray for a recurring problem. Every Palm Beach Lawn & Pest quote is firm and up-front, with clear plan options so you know exactly what you're paying for.
