White-tail spiders are slim, dark grey spiders with a pale mark at the tip of the body. They are wandering hunters rather than web builders, and they often come inside at night looking for other spiders to eat. That is why people find them in bedrooms, laundries, bathrooms and piles of clothes on the floor. We take bookings for white-tail spider treatment in Brisbane and send a nearby independent crew that treats both the spiders and the places they come from.
Because white-tails feed on other spiders, especially black house spiders, the most useful way to cut their numbers is to treat the whole spider population around the home. The crew we book checks window frames, door frames, eaves, garden beds and the gaps under doors. Inside, they treat skirting boards, corners and the spots where white-tails are turning up. Outside, they treat the walls and frames where black house spiders build their webs.

A white-tail bite is usually painful and may leave a red mark, but serious reactions are uncommon. If a bite gets worse or you feel unwell, see your doctor. Keeping clothes and towels off the floor, shaking out shoes and using door seals helps reduce indoor encounters.
White-tails are common across Brisbane, especially in leafy streets with plenty of garden. Call 07 3543 7770 to tell us where you are seeing them, get upfront pricing and book the local crew.
