Gardens in Brisbane grow quickly in the warm, wet months, and spiders move in with the growth. Golden orb weavers stretch big webs between trees, St Andrew's Cross spiders sit in shrubs, and redbacks shelter in pot plants, garden edging and under play equipment. Walking into a web across the side path is one of the most common reasons people ring us in summer.
Garden spider treatment focuses on the parts of the yard you use. The crew we book checks garden beds near the house, shrubs along paths, fence lines, pot plants, play areas and outdoor furniture. They treat the spots where spiders gather near where people walk and play, and knock down webs that block paths and doorways. Web builders out in the far corners of the yard are often left in place, since they catch flying insects and do not bother anyone.

Before the visit, pick up toys and garden gear and tell us about any veggie patches, fish ponds or chicken coops so the crew can plan around them. Keep pets inside until sprayed areas are dry. Trimming plants back from the house walls afterwards helps keep spiders from moving from the garden onto the home. Raking leaf litter out of garden beds near the house also takes away shelter for ground-dwelling spiders.
We give you upfront pricing on the phone before booking. To book garden spider treatment in Brisbane, call 07 3543 7772 and we will line up a local crew.
