Cutler Bay, United States - May 01, 2025 A single home in Cutler Bay became the epicenter of a stunning wildlife intervention after 98 iguana eggs were removed from just three burrows. The discovery left the homeowner in disbelief, but the swift and precise action of the humane iguana control team turned shock into gratitude. Their success not only prevented a massive infestation but also shielded the community from potential property damage and health risks. Vigilance played a vital role. The homeowner had carefully monitored burrowing activity, allowing the team to act before the eggs could hatch. Iguanas are known to dig burrows up to 70 feet long and lay between 20 and 70 eggs each year. Left unchecked, this could mean dozens of invasive reptiles tearing through residential landscapes. The operation used advanced endoscopy technology, allowing for targeted egg removal without unnecessary digging. After extracting the eggs, the team sealed the burrows to prevent soil erosion and eliminate physical hazards. This dramatic intervention serves as a warning and a call to action for residents to inspect their properties. “If you suspect iguanas are laying eggs around your home, don’t hesitate to contact us,” said Maxine Gross Hermida. Cutler Bay may have dodged an ecological bullet — but the threat remains real for many Florida homeowners.
