Spiders From $175
When you clean cobwebs around your house, they often reappear within a day or so. This happens because the webs on facades are typically just feeding webs—spiders prefer to reside in the safety of walls and roofs, where they are more protected.
While bites from Redback, Funnel-Web, and White-Tailed spiders are rarely fatal, they can be painful and may still require medical attention or antivenom.
Interesting Facts About Adelaide Spiders:
✔ Redback Spiders – Highly venomous, though rarely fatal. The females pose the greatest risk, as they are larger and more likely to bite. Amazingly, they can survive without food for up to 100 days.
✔ White-Tailed Spiders – The myth about necrosis has been debunked. These spiders don’t build webs but instead hunt other spiders and are commonly found indoors.
✔ Funnel-Web Spiders – Particularly dangerous, especially the Sydney variety, with fangs strong enough to pierce fingernails. Male Funnel-Webs have more toxic venom than females and tend to be more aggressive.
Understanding spider behavior is key to effective spider control. Regular facade cleaning and targeted treatments help keep their populations in check and prevent them from invading your home.

To further minimize spider activity, we recommend reducing outdoor lighting at night, as bright lights attract bugs that spiders prey on. Opting for warmer-colored lights can also help make your home less enticing to these pests.
