Why Spiders Are a Common Pest Problem

Spiders are more than just a nuisance. They can build webs around doors, windows, garages, porches, crawl spaces, and other areas of the home. While many spiders are harmless, frequent spider activity can be a sign that insects are attracting them nearby.

Spider activity can lead to:

 Webs around windows and entryways     Spiders hiding in garages or storage areas

 

 Spider sightings inside the home             Insects attracting spiders around the property

 

Because spiders often hide in dark, quiet areas, a professional inspection can help determine where they may be entering, nesting, or finding food sources.

Below are common spider problem areas we inspect and treat.

Spider Problem Areas We Inspect

 

Foundations, Crawl Spaces & Entry Points

 

They are commonly found around:

• Foundation areas                    • Crawl spaces              • Garages                  

 

• Windows and doors                • Storage areas                Porches and patios

 

Webs or frequent spider sightings may mean spiders are hiding nearby or following other insects. If you notice spider activity around your home, it may be time for an inspection.

Walls, Corners & Hidden Spider Activity

Spiders can hide in quiet areas around walls, corners, baseboards, closets, garages, and storage spaces without being easy to notice. In some cases, activity may not become obvious until webs or sightings become more frequent.

Warning signs may include:

 Webs in corners                    Spiders near baseboards       Egg sacs

 

Spiders in closets                   Activity in garages or storage areas

 

Because spider activity can stay hidden, it is important to schedule an inspection if you notice frequent sightings, webs, or signs of activity around your home.

Spiders often hide in dark, quiet areas around the home and may enter through small gaps, cracks, vents, windows, doors, or utility openings.

Clutter & Insect Activity

Spiders are often attracted to quiet hiding spots and areas where other insects are active. Gaps, clutter, and dark spaces around the home can make it easier for spiders to hide or enter.

Common problem areas include:

 Gaps around doors     Cracks near windows

 

Cluttered garages        Crawl spaces and storage areas

 

Reducing clutter, sealing small entry points, and controlling insects around the home can help lower conditions that attract spiders, but frequent spider problems should be handled with a professional treatment plan.

Spiders, Webs & Egg Sacs

Spiders may appear around windows, doors, lights, porches, garages, or inside the home. You may also notice webs, egg sacs, or spiders hiding in corners and quiet areas.

Spiders may be found near:

 Windowsills                    Doors
 

 Light fixtures                  Porches

 

Seeing frequent spiders inside your home can be a sign that they are entering from nearby areas or following other insects. Removing visible spiders and webs does not always solve the source of the problem.
