Living in Florida means sunshine, warm breezes and beautiful backyards. But it also means mosquitos, gnats and lovebugs that make it hard to enjoy the outdoors.

The good news? You don’t have to let pests chase you inside. With the right solutions, you can reclaim your outdoor space and enjoy it year-round.

Why Bugs Love Florida

Our tropical climate provides the perfect environment for insects to thrive. Pools, lakes and even lush landscaping create standing water and shady areas where pests multiply. Without protection, your patio or pool deck becomes their favorite hangout.

The Screen Enclosure Advantage

The simplest and most effective way to enjoy your backyard without swatting bugs is a custom screen enclosure. A professionally built enclosure creates a protective barrier that lets the breeze in while keeping the pests out.

  •  Enjoy meals outdoors without mosquitos buzzing around.
  •  Protect your pool from insects, leaves and debris.
  •  Entertain comfortably with family and friends all year long.
  •  Reduce chemical use by minimizing the need for bug sprays and  citronella candles.
