Spiders in the shower?! Cobwebs messing up your perfect porch? Impressive as these creatures may be… spiders in the home tend to make us… uneasy.
Basic Steps To Keep Those Spiders Away
1. Clean Regularly
The best way to prevent spiders from taking up residence in your home is to vacuum and clean regularly. Use a broom to clean hard to reach places and do your best to remove noticeable webs.
2. Remove Shelter Spaces
Piles of firewood, garden bags, and general clutter around your home or business can make comfy locations for spiders to nest. Keep these spaces clean around your home or business. Don’t forget spiders also like to nest in shrubs and undergrowth.
3. Deter Other Pests
Spiders will follow food. If your home is susceptible to other pests like ants, then you’ll likely find yourself with a spider problem. Therefore, consider ant prevention measures (such as closing gaps within your home) as part of your spider prevention strategy.
4. Keep lights off at night
One of the most common attractants for prey insects are indoor and outdoor lights left on at night. When moths, mayflies and other bugs gather around your porch, so do spiders. If you leave your lights off when they’re not being used, bug traffic will go down and spiders will have to build their webs elsewhere.

When Should I Call Humboldt Termite & Pest Control?
If you suspect an infestation, or are finding more than the occasional house guest, it could indicate a bigger problem stemming from other unwanted pests within your home or business. Spiders will typically follow the food supply (such as other pests) which might mean that there are other problems in your home that need to be addressed.
Finding lots of spider eggs is also a problem sign. We would highly recommend calling in a pest inspector to help discover the root cause. Spider eggs can contain hundreds of spiders, so finding them around your property is a sign that you may need some professional help.
