Yorba Linda, CA - Florida’s invasive green iguana population continues to expand across the state, damaging seawalls, docks, landscaping, irrigation systems, and building foundations. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission classifies green iguanas as an invasive species and allows humane removal on private property year-round without a permit.
As demand for effective iguana control grows, property owners and professional hunters are evaluating tools designed for precision and humane removal in residential and waterfront environments.
One platform frequently cited by field operators is the EDgun West Leshiy 2 air rifle.
Unlike traditional hunting environments, iguana control often occurs along canals, behind homes, around docks, and near boats, where safety, accuracy, and discretion are critical. Equipment used in these environments must balance power, control, and quiet operation.
Field professionals, including wildlife removal contractors and guides, have reported that the EDgun West Leshiy 2 platform performs effectively in these constrained settings. Online content creator and wildlife operator Trapper Mike, known as Python Cowboy, has documented the platform’s use in Florida canal systems.
“The challenge with iguanas is not just power, but placing accurate shots in tight suburban environments,” said Tim Reynolds of EDgun West. “Equipment selection is about safety, precision, and humane outcomes.”
Key considerations for iguana control equipment include
Humane terminal performance for ethical removal. Accuracy at typical canal and dock engagement distances. Quiet operation in residential neighborhoods. Compact handling near fences, boats, and structures. Rapid follow-up shot capabilityResistance to moisture and coastal conditions
The EDgun West Leshiy 2 incorporates a folding design for compact transport, semi-automatic operation for rapid follow-up shots, and modular caliber options to adapt to different engagement distances. Its suppressed firing characteristics make it suitable for suburban and waterfront environments where noise control is important.
As Florida continues to manage invasive iguana populations, air rifle platforms designed for precision pest control are expected to see increased adoption among property owners and wildlife management professionals.
