Spiders in the East Valley
Are spiders common the the Phoenix area dangerous?
Most spiders found in Arizona - and particularly in the Phoenix metro area - are harmless, but the Black Widow and Brown Recluse can pose serious health risks. Black Widows are common in sheds, garages, and dark corners. If you suspect a venomous spider, it’s best to call a professional.
Why am I seeing more spiders lately?
Spiders become more active when temperatures change—especially during late summer and early fall. Seasonal changes, recent rain, or even recent pest treatments (that flushed out other insects) can cause a temporary spike in spider sightings.
How can I tell if I have a spider infestation?
Frequent sightings, web buildup in corners or unused areas, and the presence of egg sacs may indicate an infestation. If you’re unsure, a licensed technician can inspect your property and recommend the right solution.
Is professional pest control effective against spiders?
Yes, professional pest control services provided by All Clear Pest Control are highly effective at managing spiders in homes across Gilbert, Chandler, and the surrounding areas. Regular treatments target spiders and their prey, helping eliminate the underlying causes of infestations.
When should I call an exterminator for spiders?
Contact All Clear Pest Control if you notice an increase in spider sightings, webs around windows or entry points, or presence of venomous spiders, such as black widows, commonly found in East Valley areas. Early intervention helps prevent larger infestations and ensures your family stays safe.
How do pest control companies treat spider infestations?
All Clear Pest Control treats spider infestations by applying targeted treatments around entry points, baseboards, and exterior perimeters. We also remove webs, treat landscaping, and eliminate spider food sources (like insects) to reduce spider populations effectively.
Can pest control prevent spiders from coming inside?
Yes. Preventive treatments create a barrier around your home or business and remove nesting areas. Our residential and commercial pest control services include spider prevention as part of integrated treatment plans.
Are spider treatments safe for pets and children?
Yes. At All Clear Pest Control, we use EPA-approved products and apply them in a way that minimizes exposure. Let your technician know if you have sensitive pets or concerns, and we’ll adjust accordingly.
Why am I seeing more spiders immediately after pest control treatments?
It’s common to see more spiders shortly after treatment because the products we apply disturb hiding areas, forcing spiders into the open. Typically, this increased activity decreases significantly within a week.
How often should I get spider treatments in Arizona?
In Arizona, especially in East Valley towns like Queen Creek, Chandler, Gilbert, and Mesa, it's recommended to schedule spider treatments every other month. At All Clear Pest Control, spider treatments are conveniently included as part of our comprehensive recurring pest management service, which also covers scorpions, ants, crickets, cockroaches, and several other common desert pests. Regular bi-monthly treatments effectively control spider populations, ensuring your home remains comfortable and safe year-round.
What can I do to reduce spiders on my property?
Keep storage areas clean, remove clutter, seal gaps around windows and doors, and minimize outdoor lighting (which attracts insects). Regular web sweeping and a consistent pest management plan can make a big difference.
Do you provide spider control for businesses?
Absolutely. Spiders in offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and warehouses can alarm customers and staff. Our commercial pest control services include discreet treatments, inspections, and ongoing protection.
