Spider Control
Melbourne

Tired of eight-legged roommates? Let us get rid of spiders and their webs so you can enjoy your home again.

Melbourne's Spider Threat

Melbourne and surrounds are home to several spider species ranging from nuisance to medically significant. While most spiders are harmless, some — including the Redback spider and White-tail spider — can cause serious reactions and require professional treatment.

Common species we treat include: Redback spiders (found in dark sheltered areas), White-tail spiders (active hunters, no web), Huntsman spiders (large, fast-moving, found on walls and ceilings), Black house spiders (funnel-shaped webs), and Garden orb weavers.

Signs You Need Spider Treatment

Abundant Webs

Multiple webs forming in corners, under eaves, around window frames, and in garden areas indicate high spider activity.

Egg Sacs

Round silk egg sacs attached to webs or hidden in dark corners — each can contain hundreds of spiderlings.

Regular Sightings

Seeing spiders frequently indoors, especially Redbacks in garages, letterboxes, and garden furniture — a health risk to children.

Bite Incidents

Any spider bite should be taken seriously. If you or a family member has been bitten, call a doctor and then call us for treatment.

Exclusion Advice

We advise on sealing entry points and habitat modification to reduce future spider attraction to your property.

Spider Questions

Yes — Redback spiders are medically significant. Their bite can cause severe pain, sweating, nausea, and in rare cases, serious systemic effects. They are commonly found in dark, sheltered areas such as letterboxes, under outdoor furniture, and in garages. Professional treatment is strongly recommended.
We recommend a spider treatment every 6–12 months, particularly before summer when spider activity peaks. Properties near bushland, water, or with gardens typically benefit from more frequent treatment.
Yes. While huntsman spiders are not venomous enough to pose significant medical risk, we understand many people find them distressing. Our barrier treatment will reduce the number entering your home. Note that huntsmans are beneficial predators of other insects — we can advise on the best approach for your situation.
