We are very close to the water - expect to see wildlife including bugs, lizards, birds, turtles, raccoons, squirrels, and the occasional deer. Regular pest treatments are done both inside and out but it is very easy for pests to slip into the house if doors or windows are left open.

There is one camera on the front of the house facing the driveway and front yard. There are 2 other cameras on the back of the house facing the backyard and patio area.
