How to Get Rid of Spiders
Spiders usually enter your home in autumn in search of a warm place to spend the winter.
Generally, the best thing to do is leave them alone. If you have a real fear of spiders, this can be difficult advice to follow.
The majority of spider infestations are considered annoying – particularly because of their webs. However, Australia is home to some of the most dangerous spiders – more serious infestations can occur when these spiders are involved.

Tips on Spider Removal
There are a number of tactics that you can use to keep spiders away:
-
Make sure you vacuum regularly - especially sheltered spots such as underneath worktops, behind cupboards or under/behind large furniture.
-
Remove visible webs regularly - on a regular basis.
-
Seal gaps - in walls, around pipework and under doors to ensure spiders can’t enter.
-
Remove sheltering sites near your home - such as firewood piles, garden bags, compost piles and general clutter.
-
Deter all insects - Spiders feed on insects (especially flies), so use lighting in a way that is less attractive to insects.
