Homes in Caboolture see plenty of spiders, especially on blocks surrounded by bush, paddocks or big gardens. Black house spiders web up window frames and eaves, redbacks hide under outdoor chairs, in letterboxes and around sheds, and huntsman spiders wander inside through gaps. Highset homes and verandahs give them even more places to settle.
When you book, we ask where you are seeing spiders and what kind of home it is. The crew we book usually brushes down existing webs, then treats eaves, window and door frames, verandahs, pergolas, fences, garden edges, electricity boxes and outdoor furniture. On highset homes they treat under the house as well. Inside, they treat corners, behind furniture and the roof void, which is where many spiders and the insects they eat gather.
After the visit, spiders that cross treated areas are affected, so you may see some on the ground for a week or two. Hold off washing down the eaves and windows for a few weeks to give the treatment time. Keeping outdoor lights off when not in use draws fewer insects, and fewer insects means fewer spiders. Sheds and outbuildings can be added on the day if you mention them when you call. If someone is bitten, see a doctor or call the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26.
