Spider Control FAQ — Point Breeze
Are the spiders in my Point Breeze home dangerous?
The vast majority of spiders found in Point Breeze homes are harmless nuisance species — house spiders, cellar spiders, wolf spiders. Brown recluse and black widow sightings are rare in Philadelphia but do occur. If you're unsure of the species, we can identify it during inspection.
Why do I keep getting spiders in my Point Breeze home despite cleaning?
Spiders follow their food source — if you have other insects present, spiders will be too. Exterior harborage (mulch, overgrowth, exterior lighting) also draws them close to the building. Our program addresses both the spiders and the conditions attracting them.
What's the best time of year to treat for spiders in Point Breeze?
Fall is peak season as spiders seek warmth indoors, but spring/summer exterior treatment prevents populations from building near the structure. An annual exterior treatment in spring provides the best season-long protection for Point Breeze homes.
Is spider treatment safe for my Point Breeze home's pets?
Yes. We use plant-derived exterior treatments and apply them specifically to non-pet-access harborage areas like eaves, foundation voids, and window frames. Interior treatment, if needed, is limited to crack-and-crevice applications away from pet areas.
