SERVPRO Can Handle Any Type of Fire Damage in Naples

While Florida may be known as the Sunshine State, it also clocks many lightning strikes that accompany the frequent thunderstorms, with an average of 3,500 cloud-to-ground lightning flashes that occur daily. The result of this is a Naples property can wind up with property damage from fires caused by lightning. However, there are steps homeowners can take to minimize this risk, such as:

  • Install a residential lightning protection system, which may include lightning rods, grounds, and main conductors
  • Unplug electronics and small appliances before intense storms arrive
  • Transient voltage surge suppressors work to protect the electrical system in the house if no one is home and a lightning strike occurs
  • Please read the fine print on your insurance and make sure it covers lightning strikes, as Florida is one of the top ten states for claims involving property damage from lightning

Top Things to Do During Great Weather in Naples

The city of Naples has excellent weather much of the year like the rest of Florida, and there are numerous outdoor activities. The Rookery Bay Reserve has a stunning ecosystem and wildlife to view in their natural habitats. Visitors can see small sea stars, dolphins, and sometimes, manatees. Kayaking is another popular pastime in this area. Participants in the daytime can see a host of wildlife. There are often opportunities for nighttime excursions that allow for viewing bioluminescent algae and water creatures that are generally not out in the day.

The proximity to the Gulf of Mexico makes Naples an ideal place for charter fishing excursions. Sportspeople of all experience levels can catch a diverse array of fish, including tarpon, kingfish, and sharks.

Exploring Mangroves in Naples

Mangrove trees are a huge part of the ecosystem in Florida. So much so that there are regulations about how many of the trees can get removed and limits for cutting limbs. The mangroves provide food for numerous fishes and provide nursery areas for many kinds of water dwellers, including fishes, crustaceans, and shellfish in their long, curved roots. One thing that makes the mangrove trees unique is that they are salt-tolerant trees and grow and flourish in salt and brackish water. The presence of these trees on the coastline protects the soils from erosion, surge from hurricanes and can take on the impact of tsunamis. Severe penalties can result from the removal of mangroves from private property without the proper authorization.
