Professional Spider Control in Eltham

The Honest Answer for a Suburban House

British house spiders are harmless, do no damage to the building, and eat a considerable number of the insects that would otherwise be indoors with you. The autumn appearance is males looking for a mate, it lasts a few weeks, and it happens in every house in the country. We are not going to sell a chemical treatment for that.

Two things will do more than any spray: reducing bright outdoor lighting near doors and windows, because the light brings the insects and the insects bring the spiders, and clearing webbing regularly around frames and ceiling corners.

Where It Is Reasonable

Garages, sheds, outbuildings and cellars support a much larger population than a living room, and where webbing there is persistent and returns quickly after clearing, treatment is a fair answer. So is a genuine and persistent phobia that stops somebody using their own home - we do not treat that as a trivial reason.

Signs You May Need Spider Control in Eltham

The full list is on the Spider Control Greenwich page.

• 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.
• A genuine and persistent phobia where a treated, sealed and web-free property makes a real difference to somebody's ability to use their own home. That is a legitimate reason and we do not treat it as a trivial one.

How We Deal With Spiders in Eltham

Where treatment is warranted, webs and egg sacs are removed and a residual treatment goes to harbourage points - frame edges, ceiling junctions, outbuilding structure and external entry points.
