Spider Control Sydney

Despite appearances, most spiders are harmless to humans. They prey on other insects, including insects that would normally be regarded as pests, which could be a positive. Not every kind of spider spins cobwebs, but those that do might leave a bit of a mess for you to clean up, as the webs catch dust, lint and all manner of debris. This may get more out of hand if spiders breed in your home–one clutch of eggs could have hundreds or thousands of spiders!

Not every spider is docile, however. In Australia, three species are particularly infamous for biting humans: white-tailed spiders, redback (black widow) spiders, and funnel-web spiders. These spiders have powerful venom that could cause severe reactions, potentially requiring a visit to the hospital. The funnel-web spider is especially threatening, and considered the most dangerous spider in the world.

Why Do I Have Spiders?

Spiders occupy just about every corner of Australia and the rest of the world. Spiders stay wherever they can find food, which is typically other insects. If your property has a yard or garden, chances are it is host to a variety of food for spiders. It’s normal to have some spiders around, and they keep local populations of undesirable insects lower, from pests such as cockroaches to leaf-eaters like caterpillars that might damage your plants.

Occasionally, spiders may enter your home itself and spin their webs there. If the spider population indoors is getting out of hand, there could be two reasons. The first is that there could be an outbreak of a different pest in your home that the spiders are preying on. The other reason could be that spiders had bred and laid eggs in your house, which proceeded to hatch in great numbers. Either way, this probably demands the attention of a pest control expert.

The Active Spider Pest Control Process

Step 1

Spider Inspection

After getting your call, we’ll come to your home and perform a thorough pest inspection in Sydney. We do this to accurately determine the scope of the pest problem going on, which will influence our methods.

It’s very helpful if you can point out where you’ve seen pests or even where a nest is. However, we will still perform a full inspection of the building in case there is more than one source or nest. Occasionally, there may even be more than one type of pest that you didn’t know about!

Step 2

Spider pest Solution

Based on what we learnt from our inspection, we then decide on suitable countermeasures.

Everything depends on the severity of the infestation; the treatment may range from simply leaving traps or poison for the pests, to full-on application of pesticides and other more powerful treatments. Don’t worry about vacating the premises, thanks to our completely environmentally-friendly and non-toxic pest control solutions.

Step 3

Follow-up

After a certain period, we’ll come back to check how effective our solution has been, resetting traps or reapplying pesticides if necessary. If treatment wasn’t as effective as expected, we always have several backup plans. We have a 12-month guarantee on any job, so rest assured that we’re going to stick around and get things done right, letting your property stay pest-free year-after-year.
