Pest control from the company that calls it home.
Empire Pest Defense is headquartered right here in West Palm Beach — not dispatched from across the county. Same crew, same guarantee, since 2006.
Why West Palm Beach chooses Empire.
We're not a call center routing your request to a random contractor. Empire Pest Defense has been based in West Palm Beach since 2006 — the same office, the same crew, the same guarantee for every home from downtown to the Intracoastal.
From the historic bungalows of El Cid and Flamingo Park to the newer construction near CityPlace/Rosemary Square, we know what West Palm Beach homes are actually up against — and we've been treating them for two decades.
What we treat most in this area.
Every city has its own pest pressure. Here's what shows up most in West Palm Beach homes.
American Cockroaches
Known locally as palmetto bugs — common in older WPB homes near mature landscaping and drainage areas.
Learn More
Ghost & White-Footed Ants
The most common ant complaint we get in West Palm Beach — persistent trails along baseboards and kitchens.
Learn More
Subterranean Termites
WPB's older housing stock makes subterranean termites a real risk — especially near El Cid and Flamingo Park.
Learn More
Rodents
Rats and mice looking for shelter in attics and garages, especially as temperatures shift in the cooler months.
Learn More
Mosquitoes
Standing water near the Intracoastal and canal-front yards keeps mosquito pressure high nearly year-round.
Learn More
Spiders
Common along eaves, garages, and landscaping — mostly harmless but unwelcome around entryways and patios.

Quick answers for local homeowners.
How fast can Empire get to West Palm Beach?
Since our office is based right here at 8233 Gator Ln, we're usually able to get a technician out within a day or two of your call — often faster than companies dispatching from farther away.
What pests are most common in West Palm Beach?
American cockroaches (palmetto bugs), ghost ants, white-footed ants, subterranean termites, rodents, and mosquitoes near the Intracoastal are the pests we treat most often in West Palm Beach homes.
Do you service downtown and older neighborhoods like El Cid and Flamingo Park?
Yes — we service all of West Palm Beach including El Cid, Flamingo Park, Northwood, SoSo, and the CityPlace/Rosemary Square area. Older homes in these neighborhoods often need extra attention for subterranean termites given the age of the housing stock.
We also service Palm Beach County.
