Local conditions
Living around Green Cove Springs
Green Cove Springs is the Clay County seat, on the county’s eastern edge along the St. Johns River. It began in 1854 as White Sulfur Springs, took its present name in 1866 and became the county seat in 1871.
The spring and Spring Park
The city is named for a spring beside the St. Johns River, and its sulfur-scented water feeds the public pool in Spring Park, a block east of City Hall, before running into the river. The park also has a playground, a gazebo and a 500-foot City Pier with 12 boat slips. In the 1800s the spring made the town a spa destination with more than a dozen hotels; then the Great Freeze of 1894–95 wiped out local citrus, and tourism nearly stopped.
The courthouse and historic district
The Clay County Courthouse, St. Mary’s Episcopal Church and the Green Cove Springs Historic District are all on the National Register of Historic Places. The district covers about 300 acres and holds 78 historic buildings. Honeywell’s does WDO inspections for older homes here, whether you are buying, selling or simply want to know where you stand.
Navy piers and Governors Creek
The Navy ran an air station here from 1940 to 1960, with a reserve fleet berthed at river piers, and the city annexed the base in 1984 for a port and industrial park. Vera Francis Hall Park, at the west end of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, backs onto Governors Creek. In your own yard, UF/IFAS advice is simple: every mosquito needs water for its eggs to hatch, so empty containers at least weekly.

Florida facts
Green Cove Springs pest facts from UF/IFAS
- Every mosquito needs water for its eggs to hatch, whether a pond, floodwater or a container.
- In Florida a mosquito can go from egg to adult in about a week, so empty standing water at least weekly, even a bottle cap’s worth.
- Termite activity is most visible from March to June, when drywood termites swarm.
- Finding winged termites indoors does not by itself mean there is an infestation, but wings in several areas call for a proper inspection.

What customers say
Drew was so helpful! He performed a thorough inspection on two properties for us and went above and beyond to ensure peace of mind regarding pests. We even found a dead cockroach about 15 feet outside of our home the next day, so the exterior treatment appears to be working wonderfully. …

I had Shane come out to help assist me with an ant problem I had for quite sometime. Shane was my third try and it was indeed a charm. The professionalism and quality of work was top-notch and I would highly recommend this company for any residential and commercial property.
