Spiders - web and harborage

Clear the webs. Cut off the food supply.

Spiders follow the bugs they eat. Knock down the webs and treat the perimeter, and you remove both the spiders and the smaller insects drawing them in. We also treat targeted for medically significant species.

How spider work runs.

Spiders are a sign of an insect food supply. We treat the spiders and the prey that brought them.

01

Web and egg-sac removal

De-webbing of eaves, corners, window frames, and harborage points, including egg sacs so the next generation does not hatch in place.

02

Perimeter and harborage treatment

Targeted treatment at entry points and harborage, plus the general insect control that removes the prey spiders feed on.

03

Targeted species control

Extra attention to medically significant species such as black widow and brown recluse where activity is found.

What's in the spider scope.

Most house spiders are harmless nuisances. The two worth real caution in Virginia are the black widow and, less commonly, the brown recluse - we treat those as a priority when we find them.

For the recurring household program that folds this in, see residential pest control.

Spider questions, answered.

Why do I have so many spiders?

Spiders go where the food is. A high spider count usually means a healthy population of smaller insects around the home. We treat both, which is why spider numbers stay down after the prey is reduced.

Are the spiders in my home dangerous?

Most are harmless. Virginia has two species worth caution - the black widow and the brown recluse. If we find either, we treat the harborage as a priority and show you where they were active.

Will one treatment get rid of them?

De-webbing plus perimeter treatment makes an immediate difference. Ongoing control comes from keeping the prey insects down, which is why most clients fold spiders into the recurring plan.

Do you remove the webs too?

Yes. We knock down webs and egg sacs as part of the service so you are not left cleaning up after the treatment.

One inspection clears the webs, treats the perimeter, and flags any species worth caution.
