According to Florida's law:

LANDLORD'S RIGHT OF ENTRY
Your landlord may enter at any time to take care of emergencies. An emergency should be something serious and requiring of immediate attention, like leaking gas, or a broken water pipe.
After giving you reasonable notice, he can enter to make repairs, decorate, or show your place. The statutes define reasonable notice as being 12 hours in advance, and reasonable time of inspection as between 7:30 AM and 8:00 PM. It would also be reasonable for you to require your landlord to enter only in your presence, or, if, because of an emergency, he entered with you absent, to leave a written explanation. He may also enter if you leave your place for more than one-half of a rent payment period without giving him notice or keeping the rent current.
