Most spiders live outside and wander in from there. An external spider spray treats the outside of the home, creating a treated zone that spiders cross as they move around or towards the house. It is a common way to keep spider numbers down through the warmer months. We take bookings for external spider sprays in Brisbane and send a nearby independent crew that treats houses, townhouses and ground floor units.
The crew we book starts with a walk around the outside of the home. They look at where webs are building up and where spiders are sheltering. Then they spray the walls, eaves, window and door frames, fences, pergolas, retaining walls and the edges of garden beds. Outdoor furniture, play equipment and letterboxes are included where it makes sense, with extra attention to spots where redbacks like to hide.
- Walls, eaves and gutter lines
- Window frames, door frames and screens
- Fences, pergolas, decks and retaining walls
- Garden edges, pot plants and outdoor furniture
- Letterboxes, electricity boxes and garden taps
You can usually stay home during an external spray, but keep children and pets inside with windows shut until the treated areas are dry. Try not to hose the walls or eaves for a couple of weeks, and tell the crew if you have fish ponds or veggie gardens close to the house.
Many Brisbane households book an external spray before spring and again later in summer. A roof void, subfloor or garage treatment can be added on the same visit for homes that need a little more.
