Our pest control experts have the experience to know the most effective, safest way to eliminate the spider problem, and make recommendations about keeping them away in the future.

How Do You Get Rid of Spiders Safely?

Spiders play a useful role in nature by keeping insect populations in check, but when they invade your home, they can become a serious concern. Many people fear spiders, and for good reason—several species are venomous and can deliver painful, even dangerous bites. Professional spider control ensures that infestations are handled safely, reducing risks while protecting your family and property.

In the United States, the most dangerous spiders are the Black Widow and the Brown Recluse. Black Widows are recognized by the female’s red hourglass marking, while Brown Recluse spiders carry a distinct violin-shaped marking on their backs. Both species require immediate medical attention if a bite occurs, and in some cases, hospitalization may be necessary. Other common spiders like Grass, Wolf, Hobo, and Saint Andrew’s Cross spiders are less venomous but can still cause painful bites. If you’re noticing spiders indoors, contacting a pest professional is the safest way to eliminate the problem and prevent future infestations.

What Should You Know About Spider Behavior?

Spiders are naturally shy creatures that prefer to avoid humans, but they often wander indoors in search of food, shelter, or mates. Most species feed on insects, which is why they’re commonly found near windows, doorways, basements, and garages where other pests are active. While many spiders are harmless, some—like the Black Widow and Brown Recluse—pose serious health risks with their venomous bites. Because spiders typically hide in dark, undisturbed areas, infestations can go unnoticed until webs or accidental encounters reveal their presence. Understanding spider behavior is the first step in keeping them out of your home and knowing when to call for professional pest control.
