Professional Spider Control
Spiders Are Often a Sign That Other Insects Are Nearby
Spiders are predators that feed on flies, mosquitoes, ants, moths and other insects. When spiders repeatedly appear around a home, it may indicate that the property is providing them with food, shelter and favorable web-building locations.
Effective spider control involves more than spraying individual spiders. We target common hiding areas, remove accessible webs and apply treatment around areas where spiders and their insect prey are most active.
Seeing Webs Around Your Roofline?
Exterior lights, windows, eaves and doorways attract flying insects at night. Spiders often build webs nearby because these areas provide a steady food source.
Spider Activity
Signs You May Need Professional Spider Control
Occasional spiders are common, but repeated webs and activity may indicate a larger pest problem around the property.
Spiders Indoors
Spiders may be found in basements, bathrooms, closets, garages, storage rooms and other quiet areas.
Egg Sacs
Small silk sacs may be attached to webs, siding, stored items, basement walls or other protected surfaces.
Activity Near Lights
Exterior lights attract insects, which may lead to increased spider activity around doors, windows and entrances.
Basement and Crawlspace Activity
Dark, quiet and humid areas often provide shelter for spiders and the insects they feed on.
Webs Returning Quickly
Webs that return soon after removal may indicate continued insect activity and favorable nesting areas.
Our Treatment Approach
Targeted Spider Treatment and Web Removal
We inspect the property for active webs, hiding areas, entry points and insect activity. Treatment is focused on the places where spiders are most likely to hide, travel and build webs.
- Interior and exterior inspection
- Removal of accessible exterior webs
- Treatment around eaves and rooflines
- Foundation and entry-point treatment
- Interior crack-and-crevice treatment when needed
- Targeting of insect activity that attracts spiders
- Recommendations for reducing future web activity

3

Treatment is applied to cracks, crevices, eaves, foundations, entry points and common spider resting areas.
4
Reduce Contributing Insects
Treatments may also help reduce insects that serve as a food source for spiders around the property.
Where Spiders Hide
Common Spider Activity Areas
Spiders prefer quiet areas that provide shelter and access to other insects.
Eaves and Rooflines
Overhangs, soffits, fascia boards and protected roof edges provide
ideal web-building locations.
Windows and Doorways
Insects attracted to light often gather around windows and doors,
providing spiders with a reliable food source.
Basements and Crawlspaces
Dark, humid and undisturbed areas may support spiders, cave
crickets and other insects.
Garages and Storage Areas
Boxes, shelving, equipment and stored belongings provide hiding
areas with limited disturbance.
Decks and Porches
Railings, stairs, furniture, ceiling corners and exterior lights
commonly collect spider webs.
Sheds and Outbuildings
Quiet structures with stored items and insect activity may support
large spider populations.

Removing Webs Helps Improve the Appearance of Your Home
Removing accessible exterior webs helps eliminate existing webbing, egg sacs and sheltered areas around covered parts of the home. It also makes it easier to monitor for new activity.
Web removal is included during qualifying Home Defense visits for accessible areas up to approximately 20 feet. Some high, unsafe or difficult-to-reach areas may not be serviceable.
Spider Prevention Tips
Ways to Reduce Spider Activity Around Your Property
Reducing insect activity, hiding areas and access points can make the property less attractive to spiders.
Reduce Exterior Lighting
Use only necessary exterior lights or consider warm-colored bulbs
that may attract fewer flying insects.
Remove Webs Regularly
Removing webs and egg sacs can discourage spiders from repeatedly
using the same areas.
Seal Exterior Gaps
Seal openings around doors, windows, utility lines, vents, siding
and foundation cracks.
Trim Vegetation
Keep shrubs, tree branches and vines from touching the home and
creating hidden travel routes.
Reduce Interior Clutter
Organize basements, garages and storage areas to eliminate quiet,
protected hiding places.
Address Other Insects
Reducing flies, ants, cave crickets and other insects removes an
important food source for spiders.

Questions & Answers
Spider Control Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I have so many spiders around my home?
Spider activity is commonly related to the presence of other insects. Exterior lights, vegetation, moisture and protected building surfaces may provide both food and shelter.
Does spraying one spider solve the problem?
Treating one visible spider may remove that individual, but it does not address webs, egg sacs, hiding areas or the insects attracting spiders to the property.
Will you remove spider webs?
Accessible exterior web removal is included with qualifying treatments and Home Defense visits. Areas that are unsafe or beyond the reach of our equipment may not be included.
Why do webs keep returning?
Spiders may rebuild webs when the area continues to provide shelter and insects. Regular service and reducing exterior insect activity can help limit repeated webbing.
Are spiders dangerous?
Most spiders found around homes are nuisance predators and avoid people. Any suspected bite or medical concern should be evaluated by a qualified medical professional.
Do you treat inside the home?
Yes. Interior crack-and-crevice treatment may be provided in basements, garages, crawlspaces and other active areas when included in the selected service.
How long does spider treatment take to work?
Activity should decrease as spiders and their insect prey contact treated areas. Exterior conditions may continue to introduce new spiders, which is why recurring service provides stronger long-term control.
Does spider treatment include a guarantee?
Qualifying one-time spider treatments include a 30-day guarantee. Continued activity caused by untreated structures or areas outside the original service may require additional treatment.
Is spider control included in Home Defense?
Yes. Spider treatment is included in qualifying Home Defense Plans. Exterior web removal is also included during scheduled visits for accessible covered areas.
Can spiders enter through small openings?
Yes. Spiders and the insects they feed on may enter through gaps around doors, windows, foundations, vents, siding and utility lines.
