Spider & Scorpion Control
Are spiders or scorpions creeping you out?
Many people are bothered by the presence of spiders or scorpions. Even though most spiders in your area are harmless to people (with the exception of the black widow), and scorpions are extremely uncommon, you may not want them in or around your home or office.
No pest control service can guarantee that you will never see a spider or scorpions in your home, but we can greatly reduce the numbers with good Integrated Pest Management practices. The Black Widow spider is the only truly poisonous arachnid in our area, but several other species can bite, and a few people allergic to their venom may have a variety of reactions. The infamous brown recluse or violin spider is not commonly found in northern California.
Scorpions in Central California
Worry not, Central Californians, while there are a few scorpions in the central state, they are very uncommon. Not only are you unlikely to run into ones, but the ones that we have don’t tend to be harmful.
Residential Spiders of California
There are many varieties of spiders that can be found in homes, and these spiders can pose a problem for many people living or visiting California.
How Spiders Can Help You With Pest Control
Spiders may seem like scary, unfriendly creatures. After all, films and folklore often present spiders as the evil arachnids that weave webs to lure their prey. Arachnophobia, the fear of spiders, is the most common fear in Western culture. But then there is Spiderman, who uses his super-spider skills to fight off the bad guys,
Killroy can help to solve your Spider & Scorpion problem.
We use a 4-step process to solve spider problems.
Inspection: It is critical to identify the particular types of spiders that are bothering you. Knowing the characteristics of the invading spiders will affect how these pests are eliminated. Inspecting the property is important for locating the source and causes that enabled spiders to access your building.
Modify environment conditions: Your Killroy pest management professional will look for and suggest modifications to any environmental conditions that might encourage spiders to enter the structure. This could include changing the color of your outdoor lighting or eliminating food sources that are attracting the spiders, as well as trimming plants and trees touching the structure.
Establish and implement a plan: Your Killroy pest management professional will consider the most effective and least toxic approach to get rid of your spider problem. He will explain his plan which may include customer/tenant participation and answer any questions you may have. He will then carefully treat the situation. He will find the spider webs and egg sacks and remove them.
Monitor the process: It is important to monitor the situation until it is resolved. If there is any sign of returning spiders, your technician will gladly come back at no additional charge to make the appropriate adjustments to ensure the problem gets taken care of completely.
