The Australian black house spider is notorious for invading homes and causing distress to occupants. They often dwell in sheltered areas such as corners, crevices and window frames. While they’re not aggressive, their presence can be alarming due to their size and dark colouration. At Green Pesty, we take pride in offering the best quality pest control for black house spiders. You can rely on us to thoroughly inspect your property, accurately locate the source of an infestation and implement effective eco-friendly solutions.
A comprehensive approach to black house spider control includes identifying and sealing entry points, removing clutter where spiders may hide and implementing targeted treatments using eco-friendly products that are safe for both residents and the environment.
Black house spiders are attracted to warm, dry environments, making homes an ideal habitat. Factors such as clutter, cracks in walls and outdoor lighting can contribute to their presence. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help deter these spiders from infesting a space.
While seeing a black house spider web can be unsettling, they’re beneficial predators that can help control other pests such as flies and mosquitoes. Instead of killing them, consider implementing preventative measures or seeking professional assistance if you suspect an investigation.
While their venom is toxic to insects, the common black house spider poses minimal risk to humans. Their bites are rarely serious and typically only result in localised pain and swelling. However, those with allergies or compromised immune systems should exercise caution.
Black house spiders primarily feed on insects such as flies, mosquitoes and other small prey that become ensnared in their webs. By controlling these pests, black house spiders play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance.
