Pest Control Cost in Miami: Real Starting Prices (2026)

iPest Control Inc. photo — Photo: iPest Control Inc.

Pest control in Miami usually costs somewhere between a modest monthly plan and a few hundred dollars for a one-time visit, and specialty jobs like German roaches, rats or termites cost more. The exact number depends on the pest, the size of the property, how established the problem is and whether you want a single treatment or ongoing service. To make that concrete, this guide uses the starting prices that iPest Control Inc., a Doral company serving Miami-Dade and Broward, publishes on its own website, and explains what drives any quote up or down.

All prices below are the company's published "starting at" prices as shown on its pricing page when we checked on November 13, 2026. The company says they apply to homes up to 2,000 square feet; larger properties, heavy infestations and commercial work are quoted after an inspection. Prices can change, so confirm the current number when you call.

What does general pest control cost in Miami?

General pest control covers the everyday insects: ants, common roaches, spiders, silverfish and the like. In Miami it is usually sold two ways.

Service (homes up to 2,000 sq ft)	iPest Control starting price	What the company says is included
One-time general pest treatment	$150 to $399	Interior and exterior treatment, perimeter barrier, spot treatment; 30-day warranty
Recurring service, monthly	$75 to $90 per visit	Same scope, repeated monthly
Recurring service, quarterly	$90 to $120 per visit	Same scope, repeated every three months

A one-time visit makes sense when the problem is new and has a clear cause, such as ants after a renovation. A plan makes sense when pests keep coming back, which in South Florida's heat and humidity is common for homes near water, with dense landscaping or with older construction. We compare the two plan types in detail in monthly or quarterly pest control in Miami.

What do specialty pest treatments cost?

Some pests need a different product, more labor or several visits, so they are priced separately. These are iPest Control's published starting prices for its most common specialty jobs:

Service	Starting price	Notes from the pricing page
German roach initial treatment	$299	Kitchen, bathrooms, hotspots, crack and crevice flush; includes 1 to 2 follow-up visits
German roach follow-up (within 30 days)	$99	Re-inspection and targeted retreatment; severe cases may need more visits
Rodent inspection and exterior protection	$599	Snap traps plus up to 4 bait stations
Additional bait station	$45 each
Rodent exclusion	From $225	Sealing roofline, vents, gaps and entry points
Rodent follow-up	$75 and up	Inspect, rebait, remove captures
Fleas and ticks, home and yard	$295	Interior, pet areas, lawn and shaded zones, growth-regulator treatment; one follow-up if needed
Carpenter ants	$299 to $800	Priced by linear foot; 2 site visits
Mosquito reduction, recurring	$45 to $90	Recommended every 21 days
Mosquito one-time event treatment	$125 to $200+
Attic insect treatment	$350 and up	Add-on
Fire ant or perimeter yard treatment	$95 and up	Add-on

If roaches are the problem, read how to get rid of German roaches in a Miami home or apartment first, because the species changes the price and the plan. For rats and mice, see rats in the attic and rodent control in Miami.

What does termite treatment cost in Miami?

Termite pricing works differently from general pest control because the job is measured by the size of the area or the length of the foundation. iPest Control publishes these starting prices:

Subterranean termite soil treatment: from $7.50 per linear foot, with an $800 minimum. The company describes it as trench and rod perimeter protection with a non-repellent product.
Drywood termite localized foam or spot treatment: from $375 per area, targeted areas only, no tent.
Annual termite warranty renewal: from $249 a year, after the company's own treatment, covering reinspection and retreatment.
WDO or termite inspection and report: the pricing page lists $250 and up for large or multi-unit properties; ask for the price for a standard home.

The company states that it does not tent homes. If you have been quoted for tent fumigation and want to know whether a local treatment could work for your house, read can you treat termites in Miami without tenting? If you are buying or selling, see WDO inspections in Miami.

What makes a Miami pest control quote go up or down?

The pest. Ants and common outdoor roaches are the least expensive to treat. German roaches, rodents, bed bugs and termites cost more because they need specialized products, more time and follow-up.
Square footage and layout. Published prices are often for a standard-size home. A larger house, a second floor, a big yard or a detached structure adds treatment area.
How established the problem is. A few sightings are cheaper to deal with than a colony that has spread through walls, cabinets or an attic.
One visit or a plan. Recurring service costs less per visit than a one-time call-out.
Entry points and repairs. Sealing gaps (exclusion) is a separate line item from killing the pests already inside, and it is often what stops rodents for good.
Follow-up visits. Ask how many are included. A cheaper first visit with paid follow-ups can end up costing more than a higher price that includes them.
Home or business. Restaurants, apartment buildings and warehouses are almost always custom-quoted. See commercial pest control in Miami.

Does the type of Miami home change the price?

It changes the work, and the work sets the price. The same pest behaves differently in a 1950s concrete-block house in Westchester, a newer townhouse in Doral and a 30th-floor condo in Brickell, so a fair quote reflects the building.

Property type	What usually drives the work	What to ask about in the quote
Older single-family CBS (concrete block and stucco) home	Wood roof framing and attics, gaps at rooflines and utility lines, mature trees and palms touching the roof, sometimes a converted garage or add-on	Attic inspection, exterior perimeter, rodent entry points, termite inspection of roof and door and window framing
Townhouse or villa with shared walls	Pests moving between units through shared walls, plumbing and attics	What is treated in your unit versus common areas; whether neighbors are being treated too
High-rise condo or apartment	Roaches and ants traveling through plumbing chases, trash rooms and shared walls; rarely yard pests	Interior crack-and-crevice work, follow-ups, and who treats trash rooms and hallways (usually the association)
Home with a large yard, pool or canal frontage	Mosquitoes, ants in the lawn, more exterior square footage	Yard treatments priced separately (mosquito, fire ant or perimeter yard add-ons)

If you rent, check who pays before you book. Florida Statutes 83.51 makes the landlord responsible for extermination of rats, mice, roaches, ants, wood-destroying organisms and bed bugs in most rentals other than single-family homes and duplexes, unless the lease says otherwise. In condos and HOA communities, the association often has its own pest contract for common areas and building exteriors, while owners handle their units. Ask the manager what the association already covers so you do not pay twice for the same treatment.

Why are prices listed as "starting at"?

Because the honest number depends on what the technician finds. iPest Control's published prices carry two conditions: they apply to homes up to 2,000 square feet, and larger properties or heavy infestations are quoted after inspection. That is why the most useful thing you can do before you call is describe the problem accurately: which pest, where, for how long, and anything you have already tried. A company that gives a firm price without asking any of that is guessing, and the guess usually gets corrected on the invoice.

How do you compare two pest control quotes?

Put both quotes side by side and check each of these. If a quote does not answer one of them, ask before you book.

The pest named. A quote that says "general pest" when you have German roaches is not comparing like with like.
What is treated. Inside, outside, attic, garage, yard? A perimeter-only spray is not the same job as an interior crack-and-crevice treatment.
Follow-up visits included. How many, and within how many days.
Warranty period and what it covers. For general pest work, iPest Control lists a 30-day warranty; ask any company what "warranty" means in practice and get it in writing.
Exclusion work. Is sealing entry points included or priced separately?
Contract length and cancellation. For recurring plans, ask whether you can cancel and with how much notice.
License. Florida pest control companies are licensed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS). You can look up a company or applicator in the FDACS online license search before you book.
For termites, the contract type. Florida law requires termite treatment contracts to state on the first page, in bold, whether they cover repair and retreatment or retreatment only. That one line can be worth more than the price difference.

Is professional pest control worth the money in Miami?

For a single trail of ants, store-bought bait may be enough. Paying a professional starts to make sense when any of these is true:

You see roaches in daylight, or small light-brown roaches in the kitchen or bathroom, which usually means German roaches breeding indoors.
You hear scratching in the attic or walls at night, or find droppings.
You see winged insects swarming indoors, discarded wings on windowsills, or small piles of pellets under wood.
The same pest keeps coming back after you have treated it yourself.
You are buying or selling a home and need a WDO report.
You run a business where one sighting by a customer or inspector is costly.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recommends an integrated approach for most pest problems: identify the pest, find the conditions that feed it, fix those conditions, and use pesticides in a targeted way. That is also the most cost-effective way to spend money on pest control, because it reduces repeat visits.

How to keep the bill down

Describe exactly what you see. Size and color of the insect, where and when you see it, droppings, sounds, wings. A photo helps. It lets the company price the right job.
Fix moisture and food sources. Leaky pipes under sinks, standing water in plant saucers, pet food left out and open trash all keep pests coming back between visits.
Ask about exclusion. Paying once to seal gaps can save months of rodent follow-ups.
Prepare for the visit. Clear under sinks and along walls where the technician needs access, so the treatment reaches the hiding places.
Choose the right plan length. If pests only show up in the rainy season, ask whether a seasonal or quarterly plan fits better than monthly.

Where iPest Control Inc. fits

iPest Control Inc. is based in Doral at 8220 NW 30th Terrace and serves homes and businesses across Miami-Dade and Broward, from Aventura and Miami Beach to Kendall, Cutler Bay, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines and Weston. The company is led by Harold Sierra. Its website describes it as licensed and insured, offers a free inspection and same-day response, and lays out a four-step process: you call or send the form and describe the activity, a licensed technician inspects and identifies the pest, you get the price before work begins, and the treatment is carried out with follow-up when the plan calls for it.

Questions people ask

How much is a one-time pest control treatment in Miami?

It depends on the pest and the home. As one published example, iPest Control Inc. in Doral lists a one-time general pest treatment starting at $150 to $399 for homes up to 2,000 square feet, covering interior and exterior treatment, a perimeter barrier and spot treatment, with a 30-day warranty. Larger homes and heavy infestations are quoted after inspection.

Is monthly or quarterly pest control cheaper in Miami?

Per visit, monthly service usually costs less than quarterly, but you pay for more visits a year. iPest Control lists monthly visits starting at $75 to $90 and quarterly visits starting at $90 to $120 for homes up to 2,000 square feet. The right choice depends on how fast pests come back at your property.

Why do German roaches and termites cost more than general pest control?

They need different products, more labor and usually follow-up visits. German roaches breed indoors and hide in cracks, so treatment includes a detailed crack-and-crevice job and re-checks. Termite work is priced by the size of the area or the length of the foundation being treated.

Do Miami pest control companies charge for an inspection?

Many offer a free inspection to give a price. iPest Control Inc. offers a free inspection and says customers get the price before any work begins. A WDO inspection for a real estate sale is a separate, paid report.

Who pays for pest control in a Miami apartment or condo?

It depends on the building and the lease. Florida Statutes 83.51 makes landlords of most rental units, other than single-family homes and duplexes, responsible for extermination of rats, mice, roaches, ants, wood-destroying organisms and bed bugs, unless the lease says otherwise. In a condo, the association usually handles common areas and the owner handles the unit. Check your lease or association rules and ask your landlord or manager first.

Does a bigger house always cost more to treat?

Usually, because more square footage, a second floor, a larger yard or a detached structure means more treatment area. iPest Control says its published prices apply to homes up to 2,000 square feet, and that larger properties and heavy infestations are quoted after an inspection.
