Why Are There So Many Spiders Around Your Property?

Spiders are predators. That means a spider problem can sometimes be connected to another problem: there is food available for them.

Outdoor lighting can attract insects. Moisture can create favourable conditions for some pests. Gaps around windows, doors, vents and other openings can provide access. So if you’re repeatedly removing spiders but they keep returning, the better question may be: What is attracting them to this property?

Relief Pest Control can help assess the conditions contributing to recurring spider activity. Get a free quote now!

I was definitely a bit wary at first because seeing 200 plus five star reviews is rare, but after dealing with them I totally get it. The owner is a great guy and you can tell he actually cares about the work. I had a few issues and they handled everything so professionally, plus the pricing was way better than the other quotes I got. Major props to Shoaib and the crew.

I had a very positive experience with Shoaib.  Prompt in replying, was able to fit me in quickly, knowledgeable, thorough, explained everything patiently, very pleasant to deal with, didn't press me to have anything more done than was needed, took pains to ensure that no gel would be placed within reach of my cat.  Five stars!

Know What You're Seeing

What Type of Spider Are You Seeing?

Not every spider behaves the same way. Identifying the type of spider and where you're finding it can help determine where to look and what control approach may be appropriate.

01

House Spiders

House spiders are commonly found around homes and may build webs in corners, window frames, ceilings, behind furniture, garages and other sheltered areas. Their webs can become especially noticeable when spiders repeatedly use the same locations.

Common areas
  • Corners
  • Windows
  • Ceilings
  • Garages
02

Cellar Spiders

Cellar spiders have very long, thin legs and are commonly associated with cool, damp areas such as basements and cellars. Reducing humidity and removing webs can help manage activity.

Common areas
  • Basements
  • Cellars
  • Damp areas
03

Wolf Spiders

Wolf spiders are larger, ground-hunting spiders that do not rely on webs to capture prey. They may be encountered around foundations and other ground-level areas.

Common areas
  • Basements
  • Garages
  • Foundations
  • Gardens
04

Orb-Weaver & Garden Spiders

These spiders are often found outdoors where they build distinctive webs between trees, shrubs, railings, fences, exterior walls and other outdoor structures.

Common areas
  • Trees
  • Shrubs
  • Railings
  • Exterior walls

Other Spiders

Toronto and the surrounding GTA can have a variety of spider species, and their behaviour can vary depending on the environment and where they're found.

You don't need to identify the spider yourself before contacting Relief Pest Control. If possible, a clear photo can help with identification, but our technicians can assess the activity and property conditions during service.

Spider Webs Keep Coming Back?

Sweeping away spider webs can make an area look better temporarily, but it doesn’t necessarily address why spiders are repeatedly using the same location. That’s why professional spider control should look beyond the web itself. Our assessment considers:

  • Spider activity
  • Web locations
  • Egg sacs
  • Entry points
  • Moisture conditions
  • Insect activity
  • Exterior lighting
  • Vegetation around the property
  • Areas where spiders are sheltering

The goal is to address the conditions contributing to recurring activity — not simply remove what you can see.

Know The Warning Signs

Signs You May Have a Spider Problem

A single spider doesn't necessarily mean you have an infestation. Instead, look for repeated activity and patterns that may indicate ongoing spider activity around your property.

01

Spiders Keep Appearing

If you're regularly finding spiders in different areas of your home, there may be an underlying source or entry point.

02

New Webs Keep Appearing

If you clean away webs only to find new ones appearing shortly afterward, there may be ongoing spider activity nearby.

03

Multiple Webs Around the Property

Large amounts of webbing around windows, doors, eaves, garages or exterior walls can indicate concentrated spider activity.

04

Egg Sacs

Small silk sacs containing spider eggs can indicate that spiders are reproducing around the property.

05

Spiders Around Windows & Doors

Repeated activity near windows, doors and other openings can indicate potential entry points.

06

Spiders in the Basement or Garage

Dark, sheltered areas can provide suitable conditions for spiders and the insects they feed on.

07

Spiders Around Exterior Lighting

Outdoor lights can attract insects, which may in turn attract spiders looking for prey.

08

Spiders Return After Cleaning

If you repeatedly remove spiders and webs but the activity returns, there may be a broader issue that needs to be addressed.

Spiders keep coming back? Relief Pest Control can assess the activity and help identify what may be attracting spiders to your property.

Our Approach

How Our Spider Control Services Work

Effective spider control starts with understanding why spiders are active around your property. Relief Pest Control follows a structured process to assess the problem, determine the appropriate treatment and help reduce recurring activity.

01
Assess

Inspect the Property

We begin by examining where spiders are active and looking for the conditions that may be contributing to the problem.

  • Look for webs and egg sacs
  • Identify active areas
  • Check potential entry points
  • Look for available insect prey
02
Identify

Understand the Activity

Where possible, we identify the spider and consider its behaviour, location and the conditions surrounding the activity.

  • Assess the spider type
  • Evaluate activity patterns
  • Identify sheltered areas
  • Determine contributing conditions
03
Treat

Apply the Right Treatment

Based on the inspection, we recommend an appropriate spider control approach for the property and the activity identified.

  • Target active areas
  • Address spider activity
  • Treat appropriate areas of the property
  • Recommend practical next steps
04
Protect

Prevent & Follow Up

Spider control doesn't end when the visible activity is reduced. We help identify ways to reduce the conditions that may bring spiders back.

  • Recommend entry-point prevention
  • Address factors attracting insects
  • Monitor for recurring activity
  • Recommend follow-up when appropriate
Seeing spiders again after treatment? Recurring activity may mean there is an underlying condition that still needs attention.

Frequently Asked Questions

The most evident sign of a spider infestation is the presence of spiders themselves. However, other signs can include:

  • Webs: Different spiders produce different types of webs. For instance, some might be orb-shaped while others might be funnel-shaped.
  • Egg Sacs: These are spherical abdomen structures that female spiders produce. Finding these in or around your home indicates a growing spider population.
  • Increased Sightings: If you frequently encounter spiders, especially female spiders or see spiders in areas they weren’t previously, it might indicate an infestation.
  • Dead Prey: Spiders feed on other insects. If you notice an increase in dead insects, it could be due to spiders.

While most spiders you find in your home are harmless and prefer to keep to themselves, some species can pose a threat. It’s crucial to recognize that only a few spider species have a bite that requires medical attention. The black widow spider, for instance, is known for its severe bite. However, not all spiders are venomous, and even among those that are, many do not have venom potent enough to harm humans.

Identifying the specific type of spider can be challenging due to the vast variety of spiders. Here are some general pointers:

  • Appearance: Take note of the spider’s colour, size, and any distinctive markings. For instance, the black widow spider is black with a red hourglass shape on its underside.
  • Web Type: The kind of web can often hint at the spider species. Orb webs, funnel webs, and cobwebs are associated with different types of spiders.
  • Location: Where you find the spider can also be a clue. Some spiders prefer damp environments like basements, while others might be found wandering your garden in search of food.

Spiders typically enter homes in search of food or shelter. Common entry points include:

  • Windows & Doors: Especially if they aren’t sealed properly.
  • Cracks & Gaps: In the foundation or walls of your home.
  • Vents: Such as those in attics or basements.
  • Gaps around pipes: Particularly in kitchens and bathrooms.

Ensuring these entry points are sealed can significantly reduce the chances of spiders entering your home.

Professional spider removal services begin with a thorough inspection to determine the extent of the infestation and the species involved. Based on the findings, a tailored treatment plan is devised. This plan often involves both direct extermination methods, like sprays or traps, and preventative measures to ensure a long-term solution. The goal is not only to remove the existing spiders but also to ensure they don’t return.

Several methods are employed for effective spider removal:

  • Physical Removal: This involves manually removing spiders and their webs using tools.
  • Chemical Treatments: Specific pesticides designed to target spiders can be used. These are often applied to areas where spiders are commonly found.
  • Traps: Sticky traps can be placed in strategic locations to capture spiders.
  • Preventative Measures: This includes sealing entry points and reducing factors that attract spiders, such as excess moisture or a buildup of other pests which they might feed on.

Absolutely. At Relief Pest Control, the safety of your family, including children and pets, is our top priority. The products and methods we use are designed to be effective against spiders while ensuring no harm comes to your loved ones. Always inform the technician about the presence of children and pets so that they can take additional precautions if necessary.

You’ll often notice a significant reduction in spider activity within a few days post-treatment. However, for some treatments, especially those targeting a large infestation or specific spider species, it might take up to a week or more to see complete results. Regular monitoring and follow-up treatments ensure the continued effectiveness of the spider pest control program.

Typically, there’s no need to vacate your home during the spider removal process. However, it’s always recommended to stay away from the treated areas until the applied solutions have dried or as advised by the technician. If a more intensive treatment is required, our technicians will provide specific instructions in advance.

Preventing spider infestations is as crucial as treating them. Here are some effective prevention measures:

  • Regular Cleaning: Regularly vacuum corners, under furniture, and other hiding spots to remove spiders, webs, and egg sacs.
  • Seal Entry Points: Ensure windows, doors, and cracks are sealed to prevent spiders from entering.
  • Reduce Outdoor Lighting: Lights can attract insects, which in turn attract spiders.
  • Maintain Your Yard: Keep vegetation away from your home’s foundation to reduce hiding spots for spiders.
  • Control Other Pests: By controlling other pests in your home, you eliminate spiders’ primary food source.
