Our Treatment Solutions

Our Exterior Spray Treatment is a highly effective method for controlling spider populations around your home or business.

This method doesn't just kill the spiders you can see—it disrupts their movement and prevents new infestations.

What Are Spiders?

Spiders are arachnids—not insects—and have eight legs, two body segments, and fangs capable of injecting venom. They spin webs to catch prey or use speed and stealth to hunt insects directly.

While most spiders in Edmonton are harmless, a few can cause concern due to their bites or overwhelming presence.

Common spiders you might encounter include:

✅ House Spiders — The most common indoor species, known for spinning webs in corners of ceilings and windows.

✅ Wolf Spiders — Fast-moving hunters that don’t build webs. They prefer basements, garages, and dark crawl spaces.

✅ Cellar Spiders (Daddy Long Legs) — Recognizable by their long, thin legs and tendency to hang upside down in webs.

✅ Jumping Spiders — Active hunters with excellent vision, often seen leaping from surface to surface in search of prey.

✅ Orb-Weaver Spiders — Typically found outdoors, these create classic spiral-shaped webs in gardens, porches, or eaves.

✅ False Black Widow Spiders — Similar in appearance to the dangerous black widow, but their bites are less harmful.

✅ Black Widow Spiders — Rare in Edmonton, but recognizable by their shiny black bodies and red hourglass markings.

Understanding the type of spider you’re dealing with helps us tailor the treatment to your situation.

Signs of a Spider Infestation

Spotting the occasional spider is normal, but an infestation can signal a larger pest issue—like an abundance of insects in or around your home.

Look out for these signs of spider activity:

🔹 Multiple webs — Finding webs in corners, ceilings, or behind furniture can indicate a growing population.

🔹 Egg sacs — Small silk-wrapped balls attached to webs or hidden in cracks contain hundreds of spider eggs.

🔹 Increased insect activity — Spiders follow their food source. If you notice lots of flies, ants, or other bugs, spiders may be close behind.

🔹 Spider sightings — Frequent encounters—especially in dark, undisturbed areas like basements or attics—suggest an infestation.

🔹 Shed exoskeletons — Spiders molt as they grow, leaving behind discarded exoskeletons near their hiding spots.

If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to act fast before the population grows.

Prevention

The best way to handle a spider problem is to prevent one from happening in the first place.

Here are some practical tips to keep spiders out of your home or business:

🕸️ Seal entry points: Use caulk to seal cracks, gaps, and holes in walls, windows, and doors.

🕸️ Declutter storage areas: Spiders love undisturbed spaces like basements, attics, and garages—keep these areas tidy.

🕸️ Remove webs: Regularly vacuum or sweep away spider webs to discourage nesting.

🕸️ Outdoor maintenance: Trim shrubs and trees away from the house, and remove woodpiles or yard debris where spiders may hide.

🕸️ Reduce lighting: Outdoor lights attract insects, which in turn draw spiders—consider using motion-sensor lights or yellow bug lights.

🕸️ Control other pests: Since spiders feed on insects, managing bug populations helps eliminate their food source.

For persistent spider problems, professional treatment offers the most effective long-term solution.
