Spiders
Spider Control for Ontario Homes & Businesses
Spiders follow their food. A property with heavy webbing usually has an insect problem around exterior lighting, soffits, decks and garage doors.

Overview
Spider Control in the GTA & southern Ontario
Most Ontario spiders are harmless, and the goal for most customers is fewer webs and fewer sightings rather than total elimination.
We combine exterior treatment and web removal with practical changes — lighting, moisture, clutter — that reduce the insect population spiders rely on.
Signs
Signs to look for
- Webbing in window corners, soffits, garage tracks and deck rails
- Egg sacs in basements, crawl spaces and storage areas
- Sightings in bathtubs and basements, especially in autumn
- Heavy insect activity around exterior lights at night

Prevention
Keeping it from coming back
- Switch exterior bulbs to warm or yellow-toned lighting
- Keep window screens intact and door sweeps tight
- Reduce cardboard storage in basements and garages

Seasonal note: Spider sightings in Ontario climb through late summer and peak in September and October as males wander looking for mates and cooler nights push activity toward buildings.
FAQ
Common questions
Are there dangerous spiders in Ontario?
Medically significant spiders are rare in southern Ontario. Most sightings are harmless species, and we will tell you plainly if what you have found is unusual.
Will one treatment stop all spiders?
No treatment makes a property permanently spider-free. Realistic goals are a large reduction in webbing and sightings, maintained by controlling the insects they feed on.
Are your technicians licensed?
Yes. Pest control in Ontario is regulated, and any pesticide application we perform is carried out by a licensed exterminator working within Ontario's Pesticides Act and the product label.
Do you serve both homes and businesses?
We handle spider work for houses, condos and apartments as well as commercial properties such as restaurants, offices, retail units and multi-unit residential buildings.
What areas do you cover?
The Greater Toronto Area — Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Scarborough, North York, Etobicoke, Oakville, Oshawa, Pickering and Ajax — plus Hamilton, Kitchener–Waterloo–Cambridge and London.
How do I get a price?
Call 365-293-5253 or send the inspection request form. We ask what you're seeing, where, and for how long, because the size of the property and the extent of the activity drive both the treatment plan and the cost.
