Effective Spider Control in Queen Creek, AZ
Due to the ideal climate in Arizona for comfortable living conditions, spiders are active year-round. They’re easy to miss because they’re great at hiding and are quite sneaky. Infestations increase in spring, summer and fall, with most spider species preferring dark, out-of-the-way corners of your home to weave their nests and catch their prey.
There are 26 spider species in the state, with the most common being the house, wolf, brown recluse, and black widow spiders. Tarantulas are also known to inhabit the desert areas of Arizona.
Spiders can deliver painful bites, and some can even be poisonous. Don’t share your home with them. Instead, call your local reputable pest control company for effective treatment.
How to Keep Spiders Out of Your Arizona Home
While most spiders in the East Valley area are not dangerous, it’s still unsettling to live amongst these creatures as they creep and crawl around dark corners. That said, some do bite and cause painful and even life-threatening effects, such as the black widow. Don’t take a chance. Here’s how to keep them out of your home and outside where they belong.
- Seal gaps around utilities, and window and door frames.
- Seal cracks in foundation walls.
- Seal gaps above sill plates.
- Fill rotted holes.
- Repair damaged screens or replace them.
- Seal around roof penetrations, such as vents and exhaust pipes.
- Install door sweeps.
- Replace old weatherstripping.
- Align double doors that have a poor seal.

4 Signs You Have Spiders in Your AZ Home
From the obvious (large webs) to the not-so-obvious (flying insects), there are a few ways you can determine if you are living amongst spiders.
-
1. Spider webs:
You will spot these in corners, chandeliers, ceiling beams, vases, and hard-to-reach corners. People confuse the terms cob webs with spider webs. Actually, cob webs refer mainly to old, abandoned webs that are collecting dust, while spider webs are recent and active. -
2. Egg Sacs:
You will spot these in active webs or tucked away in protected areas, such as containers. These sacs contain hundreds of baby spiders that will soon hatch and emerge to infest your home. They look like small white web balls. -
3. Flying Insects:
Spiders are drawn to areas with flying insects such as mosquitoes, moths, and flies because that’s what they like to eat. They will even eat cockroaches. If you spot these insects in your home, it’s likely that you also have spiders. However, in a way, spiders are doing you a service by eating those other pesky creatures. Ideally, you don’t want any of them in your home. -
4. Dark, Muggy Areas:
Spiders love humidity and darkness, preferring these dark, moist and warm areas that give them frequent access to food. They want to be somewhere out of the way where they can lay and protect their eggs, which is why you will find them in basements and attics.
