Spider Control in West Palm Beach

Edison Termite & Property Care — Spider Control services in West Palm Beach

Spider work in this area is mostly widow work, with wolf spiders and banana spiders filling out the rest. We're not just knocking down webs — we're finding where they're breeding and treating the harborage so they don't come right back.

Which ones you get here

• Brown widow: The common one now in West Palm Beach yards. Egg sacs are spiky and tucked under patio furniture, mailboxes, and pool equipment — we have to find and remove those, not just spray.
• Black widow: Less common in town, more likely in garages, woodpiles, and sheds. Smooth round egg sac, same rule — the sac has to come out or the problem repeats in three weeks.
• Wolf spider: Ground-dwelling, no web to find. They're coming in from mulch beds and landscaping against the foundation, so the work shifts to the ground and the gaps at grade, not the eaves.
• Banana spider (golden silk orb-weaver): Big webs strung between trees, eaves, and power lines. Mostly a nuisance outdoors, not a house invader — this is web clearing and perimeter work, not interior treatment.
• Huntsman spider: Fast, flat-bodied, shows up in garages and under eave gaps at night. They're after the gap, not the house, so closing entry points matters as much as the spray.

What spider control involves

1. Locate egg sacs: Before anything gets sprayed, we check eaves, soffits, furniture undersides, and garage corners for egg sacs — spraying an adult and missing the sac means you're back where you started in a month.
2. Clear webs and sacs: Webs get knocked down and sacs removed by hand where we can reach them, because residual product doesn't do much to an egg sac already sealed up.
3. Treat harborage points: Residual treatment goes on foundation lines, eave undersides, mulch beds, and woodpiles — wherever the species we found actually lives, not a blanket spray of the whole yard.
4. Recheck for new sacs: Widows especially will lay more than one sac before you ever see the adult, so we come back and check the same spots before calling it done.

When you need it

• Webs building back in the same garage corner or porch ceiling within days of sweeping them down.
• Small tan or off-white egg sacs tucked under furniture, in the mailbox, or along the eaves.
• Large spiders showing up on the garage floor or driveway at night that weren't there before.
• A bite or welt with no clear cause, especially after reaching into stored boxes or shoes.

What changes the job

Mulch beds and firewood stacked against the house make this bigger, because that's harborage we have to treat, not just the siding. Cluttered garages and sheds hide egg sacs we won't find on a quick walk-through. Older homes with gapped soffits or unscreened eaves give spiders a way in that a newer house doesn't have, and that changes whether this is a spray job or an exclusion job too.
