The Service Clients Call Us The Spider Man For
If spiders are webbing up your porch lights, soffits, deck rails or window frames, this is the treatment built for that problem. Our exterior spray covers the foundation, eaves, entry points and frames of your home, creating a treated zone right where spiders and crawling insects live and travel. It is especially effective for homes near the water and homes backing onto greenery, where spider pressure in our area is heaviest.
The same application controls more than 55 insect types, including ants, earwigs, boxelder bugs and other common invaders, so one visit deals with far more than a single pest.
How It Works
A licensed technician applies a professional grade, weather and rain resistant product to all key exterior surfaces. The application dries in about thirty minutes, faster on a hot day, and once dry it keeps working quietly in the background. You can expect residual protection that lasts up to three months, though heavy greenery and waterfront properties may see somewhat shorter windows simply because pest pressure there is higher.
One note on webs: our treatment controls the spiders themselves. Existing cobwebs are not removed as part of the service, but with the spiders dealt with, new webbing stops appearing.
When To Book
Spring and summer are peak season, and many clients book a treatment as soon as the weather warms so protection is in place before spider activity ramps up. If you want coverage across the whole season, our House Protection Plan times four visits to Ontario pest cycles so your home is protected year round.
Keep The Protection Working
A few habits extend the value of your treatment. Keep vegetation trimmed back from the walls, because branches and shrubs touching the house give spiders and insects a bridge over the treated zone. Keep exterior lights to a minimum where you can, since lighting draws the flying insects that spiders feed on, and where spiders eat, spiders stay. And knock down old webbing once activity has stopped, so you can spot any fresh activity at a glance.
If your property sits near water, backs onto greenery or has heavy landscaping, mention it when you book. Those conditions raise pest pressure, and knowing about them lets us pay extra attention to the zones that will be tested hardest. If that describes your property, a seasonal schedule keeps the barrier from ever lapsing, which is exactly what the House Protection Plan is built for.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the treatment safe for my family and pets?
Yes. We use professional products applied by a licensed technician, and once the application has dried, treated areas are safe for normal family and pet activity. Drying takes roughly thirty minutes in typical weather.
How long does the protection last?
Two to three months from a single application, depending on where you live. Close to greenery or water, pest activity runs higher and the treated zone gets tested harder, which is why we built the House Protection Plan, four seasonal visits that keep protection in place year round.
Will rain wash it away?
No. The formula is weather and rain resistant once dry, which is why timing the application around a dry half hour is all we need.
Do you treat the whole property or just the house?
The exterior spray treatment covers the structure itself: foundation, eaves, entry points, frames and the surfaces where spiders and insects live and travel. If you also want the yard and landscape zones treated, especially for ticks, that is our separate perimeter treatment, and the two pair well together.
