Professional Spider Control in Blackheath

When It Is Not Worth Paying For

Autumn brings a spike in spider calls every year and almost all of them have that same explanation. British house spiders are harmless, they damage nothing, and they eat a good number of the insects that would otherwise be in the room. A glass and a piece of card is the correct treatment, and reducing bright outdoor lighting near doors and windows will do more than anything we could apply.

When It Is

Blackheath does have buildings where spider work is reasonable: large period houses with cellars, coach houses and outbuildings, and commercial premises where persistent webbing is an operational problem. Heavy webbing throughout a property that returns quickly after clearing is a different matter from a spider in the bath.

Signs You May Need Spider Control in Blackheath

The full list is on the Spider Control Greenwich page.

• Persistent, heavy webbing throughout a property that returns quickly after being cleared - typically in a large or partly unused building.
• Commercial premises where webbing is a presentation or hygiene issue. Warehousing, storage, food premises, hospitality frontage and similar.
• Basements, cellars, garages and outbuildings where the conditions support a much larger population than a normal room would.

How We Deal With Spiders in Blackheath

Where treatment is warranted the work is web and egg-sac removal plus a residual treatment to harbourage points - frame edges, ceiling junctions, cellars and roof voids - rather than chasing individual spiders.
