SPIDERS
Pest control spiders
The successful pest control spiders comes from understanding them.
There are two types of pest Spiders in Auckland. Firstly the orb ( web spinning) spiders. The second is the wandering spiders e.g. white tails. These spiders do not build webs and wander around looking for food. White tails are unusual in that they feed on other spiders. So if you have lots of orb spiders, you will have white tails spiders too.
Interesting facts in spiders
1/ All spiders produce silk
Something common to all 40,000 species of spiders is that they all spin silk.
2/ 'Daddy long-legs' have the most potent venom?
There is an urban legend that daddy long-legs spiders have the most potent venom of any spider but that their fangs are either too small or too weak to puncture human skin.
SPIDER TREATMENTS HOW IT WORKS?
We do a number of things in a spider treatment including,
- Application of chemicals into crack and crevice. This is where orb spiders hide, and makes sure we dont miss any spiders.
- Interior exterior spray. This prevents access to you home by spiders
- Surround your house with long acting granules. This stops spider ( and insects) gaining access to your dwelling/business
- For white tails spiders ( wandering spiders) application of insecticide dust into attic space. This technique is very common in Australia and treats all spiders and insects in your attic
We ask our customers to leave spider webs up for seven days. This allows any spiders we may have missed to get exposed to the chemicals. We then ask them to use a broom to remove the webs.
HOW LONG DO THEY TAKE?
The time taken depends on the size of the house and level of spider infestation. An average time is 40-60 minutes to complete a job.
Typically we have a 2-3 three hour stand down period for a spider treatment.
ARE THEY SAFE?
Our customers ask us for pest control treatments that are child safe, baby safe and pet safe. We use products for spiders that are low toxicity for people, their children and their pets.
HOW LONG DO THEY LAST?
We use the best products on the market for our customers. These are the original chemicals from reputable companies who researched and discovered them. We find these work better in our hands than generic copies.
