Spiders are part of life in North Lakes, especially in homes that back onto parkland, bush or the lake edges. Most calls are about webs around the front door and outdoor lights, black house spiders in window corners, redbacks under outdoor furniture and in letterboxes, and huntsman spiders turning up inside. We ask what you are seeing and where, then book a nearby crew that works the area.
The crew we book treats the places spiders like to shelter. Outside, that means eaves, window and door frames, pergolas, fences, garden edges, letterboxes, electricity boxes and outdoor furniture. Many crews brush down existing webs before treating so it is easy to spot new activity later. Inside, they treat corners, behind furniture and the roof void where spiders and the insects they feed on gather.
After the visit, spiders that walk across treated surfaces are affected, so you may see a few more on the ground for a week or so. Leave the treated eaves and window frames for a few weeks before washing them down, so the treatment has time to work. Turning off outdoor lights when they are not needed also helps, since lights draw in the insects that spiders feed on. If a spider bites someone, ask a doctor or call the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26.
