Fortress Termite & Property Care opened in 2026, right here in Fort Lauderdale. We handle the whole range of pest work a South Florida house actually runs into: termites, bed bugs, rodents, mosquitoes, ants. Termite work is most of what we do — it's the job that eats a house slow and quiet, and it's the one we get called back to check on. Bed bugs we handle room by room, because that's the only way they come out for good. Rodents, we find where they're getting in before we ever set a trap. Mosquitoes, we treat the yard, not just the porch. Ants, we trace the trail back to the nest instead of just spraying the counter. We walk the property and tell you plainly what we're looking at and what it costs before you spend anything. Call in the morning and we can often have somebody out before the day is done. We take cash, checks, or cards — whatever's easiest. Our people carry the license the state of Florida requires for this work.
Termite work is most of what we do, and it's a different animal from the rest of the list. Termites don't announce themselves. By the time you see the damage, the colony's been working for a while already. What we look for on a first visit is mud tubes running up a foundation wall, wood that sounds hollow or gives when you press a screwdriver into it, and places where wood touches soil directly — a porch post, a step, a fence line set too close to the house. People get it wrong thinking that painting over a soft spot or bug-bombing the attic does anything; it doesn't touch a colony living in the ground or inside a wall void. We treat the soil and the structure, not just the spot you noticed, and we come back and check, because a termite job isn't something you finish in one visit and forget.
We walk the property and look at the usual entry points — foundation lines, soil contact, eaves, drains, standing water. What we're finding tells us what we're actually dealing with, since the treatment for ants isn't the treatment for termites.
We tell you what we found, what it'll take to deal with it, and what it costs, before any work starts.
The method depends on the pest — a soil and structural treatment for termites, bait placement for rodents, a yard application for mosquitoes, nest treatment for ants, a room-by-room approach for bed bugs.
We close up the gaps and fix the conditions that let something back in — wood-to-soil contact, gaps under doors, standing water near the foundation.
We come back and check. A pest job isn't finished the day the crew packs up the truck.
Fort Lauderdale is the most populous city in Broward County and its seat of government — the county's business runs out of here. It's also the third-most populous city in the entire Miami metro area, behind only Miami and Hialeah, in a metro of well over six million people. That's not a small town carrying a big name. It's a real city, with the housing to match — built up over time, close-packed, spread across a county that has to keep track of all of it from here. When a place grows that way, pest work grows right alongside it: more structures, more property lines, more edges where something finds a way in. We work within that, one house and one yard at a time.
Fort Lauderdale sits right on the Atlantic, thirty miles north of Miami, inside one of the largest metro areas in the country. That's a lot of houses packed close to a lot of coastline, and coastline means moisture is never far from a foundation. Termites don't need much of an invitation — damp ground near a slab, wood framing close to soil, a sprinkler that keeps the dirt wet. Being this close to the water also means standing water turns up in odd corners of a yard after rain, and that's where mosquitoes get their start. Fort Lauderdale is the seat of Broward County and its most populous city, and it's the third-most populous city in the whole Miami metro — which means the housing here is dense and varied, old sitting next to new, and every kind of pest problem turns up somewhere in it. We work all of it, house by house.
