Laundrie is the boyfriend wanted for questioning in the death of 22-year-old Gabby Petito.
Her body was discovered at a Wyoming national park over the weekend, months after the pair set out on a cross-country road trip.
Investigators also searched the 24,000-acre Florida nature preserve over the weekend.
The Friends of the Carlton Reserve, a nonprofit that describes itself as being "in support of one of Sarasota County's natural lands," said in a Facebook message that "staff has notified us that effective Tuesday, Sept. 21, 2021, the Carlton Reserve is closed until further notice."
The search for Brian Laundrie in the Carlton Reserve has resumed after the FBI spent hours with his parents at their home in nearby North Port, Fla., on Monday.
Dozens of law enforcement vehicles from all around the state are at Carlton Reserve Monday, which is now blocked off at the entrance.
Search teams held a briefing at about 8:30 a.m. local time, according to Fox News.
If you have any information that could assist in this investigation you're asked to call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
