Need a spider exterminator?
Finding a spider in your home can be a startling experience, especially when you realize where there is one, there are often many more.Terminix offers specialized spider pest control designed to target these elusive pests at the source.
- Spiders are masters of disguise that tuck themselves into dark, undisturbed areas like wall voids, cluttered closets, and crawl spaces where they can reproduce undetected.
- Rapid reproductive cycles allow a single egg sac to hatch hundreds of spiderlings at once, which can turn a minor sighting into a full-scale infestation very quickly.
- Unlike many DIY methods, professional spider control is designed to seep into the tiny crevices where egg sacs are tucked away.
Your spider treatment options
Glue traps
Our technicians may strategically place professional-grade glue traps in high-traffic areas for spiders, such as dark corners, under furniture, and along baseboards. These monitors serve a dual purpose: they physically capture wandering spiders and provide our experts with valuable data on the severity and species of the infestation.
Repellent dust
To address spiders hiding in inaccessible voids, your technician may apply specialized repellent dusts behind electrical outlets, in wall cavities, and in attic crevices. This spider control method helps reach deep into the structural "bones" of your home, where spiders prefer to build their retreats.
De-webbing
A critical component of our service is the physical removal of webs and egg sacs from both the interior and exterior of your home. By carefully de-webbing eaves, shutters, and corners, we disrupt the spiders' ability to catch prey and reproduce, forcing any remaining survivors to move elsewhere.
Residual liquid treatments
For exterior spider pest control, we apply residual liquid treatments around your home's foundation, windows, and doorways. These treatments are engineered to remain effective over time, creating a shield that targets spiders as they attempt to crawl into your living space.

Types of rodents Terminix treats
Black widow spiders
With that unmistakable red hourglass on their belly, black widows are famous for a reason. They tend to hang out in quiet spots like woodpiles or the back of a garage. Since their venom is more of a concern, they are covered under our comprehensive PestFree365+ plan.
Brown recluse spiders
Brown recluse spiders are reclusive, venomous spiders known for the violin-shaped marking on their back. Since they are so good at staying hidden and require a specialized approach to find and eliminate, they are included in our premium PestFree365+ plan.
House spiders
Most of us have dealt with these common guests that love to string up messy webs in the corners of the ceiling or down in the basement. They aren't usually a threat to your health, but no one wants to be cleaning sticky cobwebs. House spiders are covered under our PestFree365 plan.
Wolf spiders
Wolf spiders are unique because they do not spin webs to catch prey; instead, they hunt on foot, which often leads them directly into your kitchen or living room. These large, fast-moving hunters are covered as part of our standard PestFree365 plan.

I called several pest control companies in the area and found that Terminix had the best value and responsiveness for services. I was extremely pleased with the service of Jacob and Jeremiah, who came out immediately the next day to start service at my residence. I strongly and highly recommend Terminix as your next pest control company.

We have had Terminix for about 4 yrs. Very happy with protection. Our dogs never had a problem with fleas. They will come out in between service if something arises. Usually its those darn wasps. Great customer service from all reps. Perla Hernandez has been our primary, she is fantastic.

What to expect from Terminix spider pest control
Inspection
Our technicians do a deep dive into your home’s hidden areas, checking the interior and exterior. This helps us find where they are nesting and exactly which species we are up against.
Treatment
Once we know what we are dealing with, we create a custom spider pest control plan that may include clearing webs or applying repellent dust or liquid barriers.
Prevention
We want to make sure the spiders don't just come right back, so we look for the tiny cracks and gaps they use as doorways. By sealing up these small entry points with silicone sealant, we help keep spiders outside where they belong.
FAQs about spider control
Spider pest control costs can vary by location, property size, level of infestation, and more. Terminix customizes your spider insect control plan to target the type of spider species infesting your property. Schedule a free inspection to get started.
Spiders are primarily attracted to your home in search of food and moisture. If your home has high humidity or an existing population of flies, moths, or ants, spiders will follow. Spiders typically enter your home through tiny cracks in the foundation, gaps around window screens, or by hitching a ride on firewood and outdoor furniture.
While you can take steps to prevent spiders on your own, such as vacuuming up webs and keeping your yard clean, these are typically temporary fixes. DIY spider control methods often fail to reach the hidden nesting sites inside your walls or attic. Professional spider pest control is usually the best solution because it targets the root of the problem and ensures that dangerous species are handled carefully.
