Webs across the front door, huntsmen on the wall and redbacks under the outdoor furniture are all common calls from homes in Brisbane. Leafy streets, gardens that touch the house and yards that back onto bush or parkland all bring more insects, and more insects bring more spiders.
When you call, tell us what kind of spiders you are seeing and where the webs are. We give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew. The crew we book brushes down existing webs so new activity is easy to spot, then treats the places spiders hide and hunt, both inside and outside the home.

Many people book spider treatment in spring, when insects start to build up, or as part of a general pest visit. High-set homes with storage underneath often need the subfloor treated, as that is where redbacks and black house spiders like to live. Keeping stored items off the ground and away from the walls helps.
You can do a lot between visits. Turn off outdoor lights you do not need, as they attract the insects spiders feed on. Trim plants so they do not touch the walls or roof. Shake out shoes and gloves left outside before you use them. If someone is bitten and feels unwell, call 000, or ask a doctor or the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26.
