Spider Extermination and Pest Control

As the Weather Warms, Spiders Become More Active

Spiders have their purpose in this world, just not in your Richmond, Newport News, or Williamsburg home. Spiders are common in homes during warm weather, although they can be found indoors any time. Their numbers usually peak during late summer and fall, during their mating season, which is when spider extermination and pest control peaks.

There are some spiders we need to be wary of: brown recluse, black widow, hobo, and yellow sacks. Black widows especially like crawl spaces in homes. If the wrong kind of spider bites a person or pet, you could have a real problem. The best solution to spider extermination and pest control is prevention.

Most spiders will be found outside your home in grass or wood piles, or in darker places such as inside the garage or under your deck. So, it’s very important to inspect the areas you frequent outside your home for spider infestation.

Equally important is to inspect potential access points into your home. Chances are that if a spider is inside your home, it’s looking for food and following other insects inside. This might be your early warning sign to call Eco Pest Control, the leading spider extermination company in the greater Richmond, Newport News, and Williamsburg areas.

How to Keep Spiders Out of Your Home

To keep spiders from invading your home, take the following 10 preventative measures:

  1. Spiders are pest of prey and feast on other insects, such as cockroaches and flies. Rid your home of these pests, and spiders will have little reason to visit.
  2. Be vigilant about cleaning. Spiders like to hide, and a clean home gives them fewer hiding places.
  3. Vacuum up spider webs and egg sacs whenever you see them.
  4. Keep food put away in tightly sealed storage containers. While spiders generally don’t eat human food, they eat the insects that do, such as ants, cockroaches, and other pests. With no food source, spiders will move on.
  5. Get rid of clutter. Spiders will hide nearly anywhere, including piles of dirty clothes, stacks of old magazines, and that pile of junk sitting in the corner of the closet.
  6. Use pesticides or other pest control treatments based on any other insect problem you may have.
  7. Keep spiders from entering your home by sealing cracks and crevices. Cover vents with fine mesh insect screens.
  8. Replace or fix torn window screens and caulk gaps around windows.
  9. Keep outdoor lights off or switch to yellow sodium vapor lights to keep from attracting other pests that spiders might feed on.
  10. Remove vegetation within eight feet of the perimeter of your home. Shrubs, trees, and ivy provide shelter for spiders and harbor insects they use for food.
