Spiders are common around homes on the Sunshine Coast, especially near bushland, creeks, canals and thick gardens. Webs build up under eaves, around outdoor lights, in garages, sheds and carports, and across window frames and sliding doors. Letterboxes, pool fences and kids' play equipment are other favourite spots. Where there are plenty of insects to eat, spiders are rarely far behind, so homes with ant or insect problems often see more spiders too.
You can book spider control on its own or add it to an ant treatment. When you call, we ask where the webs are, whether you see spiders inside and whether there are sheds, pool fences or play equipment to include. Larger blocks and acreage take longer, so tell us about outbuildings. We give you upfront pricing, then book a nearby independent crew. The crew we book will usually:
- Brush down webs from eaves, windows and outdoor lights
- Spray outside walls, eaves, fences and garden edges
- Treat garages, sheds, carports and pergolas
- Dust the roof space where spiders shelter
- Treat window frames, door frames and weep holes
Brushing webs down before spraying lets the treatment reach the surfaces spiders walk on. New spiders will still wander in from the garden, but numbers around the house should drop. Turning off outdoor lights when they are not needed means fewer insects at night and less for spiders to eat. Moving stacked pots, timber and boxes away from the walls also takes away hiding spots. Many homes book a spider spray each spring, when webs start building up again.
