Alafaya is the east Orange County area around the University of Central Florida and Alafaya Trail, with student rentals and apartments beside 1990s-onward subdivisions. Call (855) 974-4733 to reach a local technician for roaches, bed bugs and ants in busy buildings.
Alafaya is east Orange County around the University of Central Florida and Alafaya Trail. Student rentals and apartments sit alongside subdivisions from the 1990s onward, and turnover in the rentals is high. The notes point to roaches, bed bugs and ants as the calls most likely to follow from that turnover.
Bed bugs feed mainly at night, spread on clothing and luggage, and have never been shown to spread disease to people, according to UF/IFAS. Local prevalence was not sourced, so this page gives no figure. What it can do is explain how a unit moves from one tenant to the next, and what to ask before a visit.
Rental units near campus often start with a general visit.
Used when a house in the area is sold.
Considered where the inspection finds ground-level activity.
Considered for trim and framing with activity.
Relevant only where new building is planned.
Winged insects seen in spring are identified first.
Orlando's hot, humid summers, daily-storm wet season and mild winters decide what is active: winged termites in spring, container mosquitoes and ants after rain, and roof rats in attics in every month.
Bed bugs spread on clothing and luggage, and a unit that changes tenants often gives them more chances to move. UF/IFAS says they feed mainly at night, and recommends sanitation, mechanical methods and limited careful pesticide use.
A tenant who sees a bug should bring a specimen or photo to the visit. The adult is brown and about 6 to 9.5 mm before feeding, and swells and turns red after, which helps identify it.
Roaches in multi-unit buildings can move through shared walls, pipes and trash areas, so one unit's treatment may not hold on its own. Ask the manager which units have reported activity before the visit.
UF/IFAS says the Florida woods cockroach is mostly outdoors and usually enters by accident. An indoor roach is often a different species, and identifying it is the first job.
Ants in a rental often follow food left in kitchens and near trash. Red imported fire ants are established in Florida, according to UF/IFAS, and their mounds rarely exceed about 18 inches across. They spread mainly by mating flights.
A subdivision yard and a rental courtyard on the same block can host different ants, so the check is done lot by lot.
From roughly June to September the wet season brings daily storms, standing water and ants moving indoors after rain. Winged termites are usually seen from March through June, and UF/IFAS says a swarm does not by itself prove an infestation.
Mild winters follow, so the rodent and attic checks stay on the list through the cooler months.
