SPIDERS

DIFFERENT TYPES OF PENNSYLVANIA SPIDERS (AND ARE THEY PESTS?)

Dominion receives many calls from residents requesting help for spiders — inside and outside their homes! Most folks who report spider issues in Central Pennsylvania seem to be bothered in spring, and again in the fall. This is when spiders try to enter homes looking for refuge from the falling temperatures.

Let’s look at different kinds of spiders found locally.

PEST CONTROL FOR SPIDERS

SPIDERS IN CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA

Many types of spiders will invade your home in Central Pennsylvania… too many to name, actually. One thing that you need to know is that they can be stopped. Years ago, people would tell me that someone in the pest control industry told them that there was nothing that you could do for spiders. Well that simply isn’t true. We will get and maintain control! In fact, when someone is on our Quarterly Perimeter Powerspraying plan, they won’t see many at all. That’s right, we can control them to the point that you’ll wonder where they all went!

One of the ways we get control of spiders is by treating rooms in the home with a general spray insecticide on the initial service where the spiders are being sighted. Something that is important is to have us treat the basement and garage on the initial service also. From there, we maintain control quarterly from the outside. Now we are not talking about something you pick up at the hardware store; we use products that are long-lasting along with low toxicity rates. And best of all, most of the products we use have virtually no odor at all! Call us for more details!
