PESTS
Our property is treated for pests regularly. We cannot guarantee you will not see a pesky critter in the house as this is Florida!! Our home is cleaned thoroughly and treated but insect sightings can occur. Keep doors and windows closed when not in use.
CAMERAS
We do have motion sensored cameras at the front door facing street and back door facing yard. This step deters unwanted solicitation, illegal activity and helps us manage our staff. Thank you for understanding.
