Most spiders are nuisance pests, but some species found in the Western U.S. can be dangerous. The black widow and the brown recluse are both present in our service areas and can deliver bites that cause serious symptoms, particularly in children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Beyond the health risks, spiders are persistent: they breed on your property, build webs in hard-to-reach areas, and are difficult to control with DIY methods alone. Acting early gives you the best chance of getting the situation under control before it grows.

Our spider identification guide covers the species most commonly found across the Western U.S.
Our customers across the West trust us to protect their homes from spiders and other pests. Here's what some of them have to say.
Our spider removal services start with a thorough inspection to identify the species and locate harborage areas. From there, we build a targeted treatment plan that may include residual treatments, web removal, dust applications, and glue traps. We use an integrated approach, focusing on where spiders are active and addressing the conditions that attract them.
If you're seeing spiders regularly, finding webs in multiple areas, or spotting a venomous species like a black widow or brown recluse, it's time to call in a professional. A single spider isn't usually cause for concern, but repeated sightings or signs of an infestation may warrant prompt attention.
In the Western U.S., the black widow and brown recluse are the two species that pose the greatest risk to humans. Both can deliver bites that cause serious symptoms. If you think you've been bitten by either species, seek medical attention immediately.
No. DIY methods like sprays and sticky traps can offer short-term relief, but they rarely address the root cause. Spiders return when the conditions that attract them, such as other insects, clutter, and entry points, remain in place. Professional treatment is more effective for lasting results.
Spiders follow their food source. If you have other insects in or around your home, spiders won't be far behind. Clutter, dark and undisturbed spaces, gaps around doors and windows, and outdoor lighting that attracts flying insects can all make your property more appealing to spiders.
Some common tips to help prevent an infestation:
Spiders prefer dark, undisturbed areas. Inside, that means wall voids, attics, basements, closets, and behind furniture. Outside, they're commonly found in woodpiles, under eaves, around window frames, and in dense vegetation close to the home.
The most obvious sign is a large number of webs in multiple areas of your home. You may also notice egg sacs, which can contain hundreds of spiderlings, or see spiders regularly in areas where you wouldn't expect them.
Costs depend on the size of your property, the species involved, and the level of activity. A free inspection is the best starting point.
