A few spider varieties commonly seen around homes in our state include: redback spiders, black house spiders, white tailed spiders, daddy long legs and huntsman.
-
First up, spiders love dark, cosy corners, so when cleaning and dusting don't forget those hidden nooks and crannies (including behind furniture).
-
You don’t want spiders sneaking in through tiny cracks like tiny secret agents so patch up any wall gaps, seal under the doors, and fix those window cracks.
-
Fix any torn or damaged fly screens.
-
Look out for any sneaky spider webs and vacuum them away.
-
Spiders love a good feast on insects, so turn off unnecessary insect-attracting lights at night. This goes double for outdoor lighting – if it's not needed, keep it dark.
-
And before you bring the outside in, give your shoes, clothes, and toys a good shake just in case any sneaky spiders are hitching a ride inside!
And if you do find yourself with unwelcome spidery guests – give your local pest control expert a call.
