What are the Signs of Spider Infestation?
It is normal to see an occasional spider web around your dwelling, however, excessive webs and spiders in and around a building can be controlled. There are a few factors which may attract spiders and indicate their presence.
Webs
If you find yourself repeatedly removing spider webs, this may be a sign of a spider problem. Spiders use these webs to catch prey. Extermination and pest control will limit the time you spend removing webs.
Cracks and Crevices
Moisture
Unused places


Suspect you’ve been Bitten by a Spider?
Unfortunately, some venomous spiders call Australia home. While some spiders are harmless, particular species have a deadly bite and the victim must seek urgent medical assistance.
Funnel Web, Redback and Mouse Spiders inhabit Australia and have a poisonous bite.
Other species including White Tail spiders and Black House spiders may cause pain, itchiness or redness, but are not deemed as dangerous as the spider bites above.
If you are unsure of the appearance or species of spider that bit you or your pet, seek medical assistance immediately.
As a precaution, always seek medical care if you are bitten by a spider.
