Spiders are part of life in leafy Toowong, with its big gardens, older timber homes and bushland close by. Many simply spin webs and eat other insects, but webs across doorways, huntsmen in the car and redbacks in the shed are not things most people want to live with, especially with young children or pets around.
The crew we book treats the places spiders build webs and shelter, both outside and in. They also knock down existing webs in reachable spots, so it is easier to see if new ones appear after the visit. Outside, the treatment goes onto the surfaces spiders walk across and build from, which is where it does the most good.
- Eaves, window frames and door frames
- Garages, sheds and carports
- Fences, pergolas and outdoor furniture
- Subfloor areas under raised homes
- Letterboxes, electricity boxes and garden edges
Spiders feed on insects, so reducing other pests helps keep spider numbers down. Many people book spider control together with general pest control for that reason. Before the visit, move outdoor cushions and toys under cover and clear a path to the shed and garage so the crew can reach the corners. Keep pets and children off treated areas until the crew says they can go back.
