Behavior and habits
Spiders follow their prey indoors, settling in undisturbed corners, basements, garages, and window wells.
Why spiders are a problem
Webs and sightings alarm families, and black widows and hobo spiders warrant real caution.
How Antex handles spiders
Our technicians confirm the species first, because effective control depends on it. Then we treat the source: nesting sites, harborage, and the routes onto your property, using professional products applied precisely. If pests return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and address the issue at no additional cost.
Prevention tips
Knock down webs regularly, reduce exterior lighting that draws insect prey, and seal ground-level gaps.
