Canberra Spider Pest Control
Spiders are an important part of the ecosystem. Areas such as Mount Ainslie Nature Reserve, Commonwealth Park and Black Mountain Nature Reserve are teeming with spiders that help control insect numbers. But unfortunately, spiders are also found in residential towns, homes and businesses in Canberra and the ACT.
Our technicians regularly treat properties in Campbell, Aranda and Mitchell for venomous red back, funnel web or white tip spiders. Don’t risk a bite from a spider, especially if you have pets or children.
While some species are dangerous, many spider species can cause pain or infection. If you have spiders on your property, ask a professional to remove them at the source, so they don’t return.
Which spiders invade homes in Canberra?
Spiders can live in webs, burrows or no webs at all. Daddy Long Legs are common webbing spiders in many homes in Canberra. Another webbing spider we come across regularly is the Black House Spider. Webbing spiders love window frames, curtain rails and cornice areas. These spiders may not be dangerous, but their webs are annoying.
The Huntsman and Wolf Spiders can appear suddenly on your wall. That’s because they hunt for pray in crevices or corners of a room, instead of trapping insects in a web.
Another group of spiders found around swimming pools and in gardens on the central coast are burrowing spiders. Funnel Web and Trap Door spiders tend to stay outside. If you have kids that like to dig in the dirt or pets, it’s best to call a professional to rid your yard of these nasties.
How to keep spiders away from your home
Spiders kill insects. So some homeowners turn a blind eye to the odd Daddy Long Legs in the corner of the room. However, if the number of spiders gets a bit out of hand, or they keep appearing after being removed, you need to call a professional. We often get calls at the first sign of a Huntsman scampering across the bedroom wall late at night. Where there’s one, there are often more.
Here are some tips to keep spiders out of your home.
- Cut back branches from the property
- Remove material stacked around the home, such as bricks, wood or spare roof tiles
- Declutter your shed
- Regularly clean your house to deter insects
- Remove spider webs as soon as you see them
If the thought of spiders in your home gives you shivers, don’t hesitate to call one of our professional technicians. Webbing, burrowing and other spiders need to be treated differently, due to their environment and behaviour.
If you suspect you have spiders, don’t try to get rid of them yourself. Call (02) 6147 2613 and get your home inspected by a professional.
