Why iguanas thrive around Indiantown properties
Indiantown is rural western Martin County — ranch land, citrus and the C-44 Canal rather than seawalled waterfront — so iguana pressure is lighter here than on the coast. Where they appear, it is along the C-44 (St. Lucie) Canal and irrigation ditches. Swift Wildlife removes them humanely before they burrow into the banks.
This is agricultural country ringed by the DuPuis wilderness, so iguanas keep to the one steady water feature: the C-44 Canal that links toward Lake Okeechobee, plus the irrigation channels crossing the ranches. Homesteads with irrigated ornamentals near that water draw a few, but the pressure stays low and scattered.
Cold-blooded and sun-driven, an iguana out here basks on an open canal bank or warm slab through the day, feeds on soft greenery, then digs a nesting burrow into the loose canal-side soil. Using the canal and ditch network, it drifts between properties along the water rather than crossing dry ranch land.
Signs of a iguana problem on your property
On a rural Indiantown property, these are the signs it's time to call — before the damage spreads to more buildings.
Basking on the canal bank
You spot large iguanas sunning along the C-44 Canal or an irrigation ditch, sliding into the water as you draw near.
Burrows in the bank
Holes with mounded soil open where the canal or ditch bank meets your property, marking an iguana’s nesting tunnel.
Grazed ornamentals
Flowering shrubs and tender leaves near the water show up chewed where iguanas have been feeding.
Where we commonly find iguanas
On rural Indiantown properties, iguanas concentrate in a predictable set of spots — buildings included.
- 01
Canal & ditch banks
Iguanas dig nesting burrows into the soft soil of the St. Lucie Canal and drainage-ditch banks.
- 02
Groves & landscaping
Citrus, ornamentals and vegetable plots are grazing targets, and the soft ground invites burrowing.
- 03
Slab & structure edges
They burrow against slabs, sheds and irrigation, undermining them over time.
The property damage iguanas cause
Eroded canal & ditch banks
Iguana burrows hollow out canal and ditch banks, speeding erosion and collapse on ag land.
Damaged crops & landscaping
They graze citrus, ornamentals and garden plots to stubs and foul the areas they frequent.
Undermined slabs & irrigation
Burrows against slabs, sheds and irrigation lines pull out supporting soil and crack concrete.

A prohibited invasive that damages ag land
Florida lists the green iguana as a prohibited invasive: it can be removed year-round on your property, but by law it can never be relocated and released elsewhere. On Indiantown’s canal banks and groves its burrows erode banks and undermine structures — so we clear the baskers, fill and screen the burrows, and cut off the plants and ledges drawing them back.
- Removable year-round — never relocated
- Bank & slab burrows filled and screened
- Grazing & basking sites addressed
