Spider Control in Barnet: what we see locally
In late summer and autumn, large house spiders come indoors looking for a mate, and Barnet homes with big gardens, sheds and garages see plenty of them.
Noble false widow spiders are also becoming more common in north London. They build webs in sheltered places around window frames, door frames, conservatories and garden furniture. We treat inside and outside your home to reduce spider numbers.
Where we find spiders in Barnet
- Sheds and garages: Undisturbed outbuildings in Barnet's large gardens hold lots of spiders.
- Window and door frames: False widows often web in the corners of frames.
- Conservatories: Glass extensions attract insects and the spiders that feed on them.
- Lofts and basements: Quiet storage areas suit house spiders.
Our spider control service covers the whole of Barnet, including Childs Hill, Chipping Barnet, Colindale, East Barnet, East Finchley, Edgware, Finchley, Friern Barnet, Golders Green, Hendon, Mill Hill, New Barnet, North Finchley, Totteridge and Whetstone, with same-day or next-day visits.
Keeping spiders out of Barnet homes
Declutter sheds, garages and lofts, vacuum webs and egg sacs and seal gaps around windows and doors. Switching outdoor lights to warm-coloured bulbs attracts fewer insects, which means fewer spiders.
