Last weekend’s frigid bomb cyclone delivered not only record cold temperatures, it also dropped loads of cold-stunned green iguanas from South Florida’s trees, allowing pest control companies to collect them by the thousands.
Some Floridians revived the cold-stunned lizards, but professional pest control businesses rushed teams out to collect as many as they could from HOAs, farms and municipalities before the invasive lizards roused from their stupors. The numbers they collected were “amazing,” said one contractor.
