Spokane Valley homeowners call us about spiders more than almost anything else in late summer. Irrigated lawns, landscaping rock and the open land around the Valley give spiders plenty of insects to eat and plenty of places to hide.
Landscaping rock and bark beds against the foundation, which you see all over Spokane Valley subdivisions, are some of the best spider habitat there is. Homes near the Dishman Hills and the Centennial Trail get wolf spiders and black widows coming in from the brush. In the fall, hobo spiders and giant house spiders wander into garages and basements in Opportunity, Greenacres and Veradale.
We brush down webs and egg sacs from eaves, windows, decks and garage corners, which removes the next generation before it hatches.
We treat the foundation, entry points and the places spiders hide outside, like window wells and landscaping rock.
We treat cracks and crevices in basements, garages and crawl spaces where spiders settle in for the winter.
We point out the things that draw spiders in, like porch lights that attract insects and woodpiles against the house.
Spider control is covered by our general pest control plans, which start at $41 a month. The first service is $125 with a 12-month agreement. Our 365 Pest Free Guarantee means that if spiders come back between visits, so do we, at no extra charge.
See Your PriceIt can. Rock and bark beds against the foundation hold moisture and insects, which gives spiders a perfect place to live right next to your house. Keeping a strip of bare ground or gravel along the foundation and treating the perimeter cuts down on spiders a lot.

Probably not as dangerous as their reputation. Hobo spider bites were once blamed for serious wounds, but newer research hasn't backed that up. The spider with truly harmful venom around here is the black widow, which hides in garages, woodpiles and window wells. If you're bitten and have severe pain, cramping or trouble breathing, get medical help.
