Spider Control Newcastle

INCLUDED in General Pest Treatment Threat Level: Medium

Australia is home to some of the most venomous spiders in the world. While most are harmless and even beneficial, redbacks and other dangerous species around your home are a genuine safety concern — especially for children and pets.

Signs you may have spiders

  • Webs in corners, eaves and garden
  • Egg sacs
  • Visible spiders around outdoor furniture
  • Redback sightings in sheds/garages
  • Bites or reactions

Why spiders becomes a problem

Redback spiders are highly venomous and thrive around homes, hiding in shoes, toys, outdoor furniture and sheds. Web-building spiders create unsightly webs, and some species deliver painful or medically significant bites.
