The HOA always gets rid of them at our place anytime they get to a certain size. I like oooking out my lanai seeing them frolicking in the pond. Of course, as soon as they get rid of one, another couple of them appears in a day or two.

The lake I live on is about 3 miles across and there is no HOA in any neighborhood on the lake. People can contact the Game and Freshwater Fish Commission to have nuisance alligators removed. There is also an alligator hunting season and an opportunity to work with a hunter to target a large alligator you want removed. I always CCW at home and use rounds that will penetrate an alligator skull. The brain is small and I know the target from all angles.

I have alligators on the beach all the time. I have never had one get into my garage, but had a neighbor that had a large one in the garage under the car. I had many more issues with black bears and moose when I lived in Colorado.
