Spider Control

Controlling spiders means controlling what they eat, where they hide, and how they get in. And in brown recluse country, it means taking identification seriously.

Our approach

Spiders are predators — they're in your house because food is. That's why serious spider control is really three jobs: reducing the insect prey population that sustains them, physically removing webs and egg sacs (each sac can hold hundreds of spiderlings), and treating the harborage zones where spiders hunt and hide — garages, basements, crawl spaces, eaves, and the cluttered corners of storage rooms.

The medically significant species get special respect. Brown recluses — established across much of the mid-South — don't build catch webs; they hide in boxes, stored clothing, wall voids, and attics, which makes glue-board monitoring and targeted void treatments the professional approach. Black widows keep to undisturbed low clutter: meter boxes, weep holes, woodpiles, under deck rails. Our technicians know the difference and treat accordingly.

Routine de-webbing of eaves, entryways, and exterior corners is part of every recurring service visit — it removes spiders, their egg sacs, and the visual evidence, and forces survivors to relocate into treated zones. Combined with a maintained exterior barrier, it keeps both the spiders and their prey outside where they belong.

Spider Control questions, answered straight

How do I know if a spider is a brown recluse?

Look for a uniform tan-to-brown body about the size of a quarter with legs, a dark violin shape on the back, and — the reliable trait — six eyes in three pairs instead of the usual eight. No stripes, no bands, no spines. They hide in undisturbed storage, so shake out stored clothing and boxes in recluse country, and let a professional confirm any suspect.

Are house spiders dangerous?

The overwhelming majority are harmless and even beneficial — cellar spiders, wolf spiders, and orb weavers are nuisance-level at worst. In most of our markets only two species warrant medical caution: the brown recluse and the black widow. Control focuses on those, and on keeping overall numbers down.

Why do I suddenly have so many spiders?

Spiders follow food. A jump in spider sightings usually signals a healthy population of other insects in and around the home — which is why spraying spiders alone disappoints, and why our approach cuts the prey population at the same time.

Does the recurring plan include spider service?

Yes — de-webbing and exterior spider treatment are standard on every quarterly visit, and interior service is included whenever you're seeing activity inside. Brown recluse programs get an added monitoring layer.
