About this service

Precisely what we do, step by step.

Most BC spiders are harmless to humans, but their webs are unsightly and they trigger fear responses that no homeowner should have to live with. Our treatment is straightforward: a perimeter exterior application that targets harborage points (eaves, soffits, decking, fence lines) plus interior baseboard and corner treatment for any rooms with active webbing.

The two species worth watching for in BC are the western black widow (uncommon but present in dry rocky areas of southern BC) and the hobo spider (often misidentified). Bites from either are rarely serious but warrant medical attention. Most other species — giant house spider, cellar spider, common house spider — are nuisance only.

Pricing starts at $245 for a standard residential perimeter. Botanical pyrethrin formulations available on request — equally effective for spider treatment, kid- and pet-safe. 60-day return guarantee.

Our process

Repeatable. Documented. Guaranteed.

Web removal

Existing webs and egg sacs cleared from eaves, soffits, deck beams, and corner harborage points.

Perimeter treatment

Residual application at exterior perimeter — entry points, foundation, eaves, garage door.

Interior

Targeted baseboard and corner treatment in rooms with active activity. Pet- and kid-safe formulations.

Walk-through

We point out conditions (clutter, exterior lighting, gaps) that attract spiders, so prevention is part of the visit.

How to tell

Signs it’s time to call.

Webs accumulating on exterior eaves, deck corners, or window frames.
Egg sacs — small silk balls in attics, basements, garages, or sheds.
Spotting larger spiders (1-2 inch leg span) inside the home, especially in fall.
Frequent encounters in basements, garages, or sheds where humidity is higher.

Common questions

Everything else you might be wondering.

Are there dangerous spiders in BC?

Yes, but they're rare. Western black widows exist in dry rocky areas of the southern interior and southern Vancouver Island. Hobo spiders (often misidentified) can give a medically significant bite though severity is debated. The vast majority of BC spiders are harmless.

Will treatment kill beneficial garden spiders?

Exterior perimeter treatment focuses on the structure itself — eaves, decking, foundation. Garden orb weavers and other beneficial outdoor spiders in your landscaping are not the target and largely unaffected.

How long does the treatment last?

Standard perimeter applications last 60-90 days under typical BC weather. Heavy rainfall can shorten that. We include a 60-day guarantee — if activity returns within the window, we re-treat at no cost.

Are kid- and pet-safe products available?

Yes. We can use botanical pyrethrin formulations (chrysanthemum-derived) on request. These are equally effective against spiders, biodegrade quickly in sunlight, and are approved for organic certification.
