Spider Treatment
Prevention is the best method of treatment and we suggest following some of the tips mentioned above before going any further. Should you try these and still need help, we offer the following.
Internal Treatment:
Spiders are treated internally by means of a general residual insecticidal spray to all skirtings, windowsills, around light fittings, pot plants, in cracks and dark corners, and by targeting any other specific problem areas. Treatment is done as a knockdown only. Please note that unless the spiders actually cross over this chemical and come into contact with it within a few days of treatment it will have no effect on them, so this service is not guaranteed. Regular and thorough dusting and cleaning is by far a more effective means of spider control, together with our spray treatment for severe spider infestations.
External Treatment:
Spiders are treated externally via a residual insecticidal spray to the outside perimeter walls and around external light fittings and problem areas. We can also treat spiders in lawn or paving areas, especially when infested with little black “jumping spiders”. As with all outdoor treatments, the effect is limited as the active ingredient of the spray gets broken down by the UV rays of the sun, as well as washed away with the rain. The treatment can make a difference and can significantly knock back a heavy spider infestation.
