You know what I mean. You sweep out the corners around and outside your house and may even put down some bug spray. But, inevitably those spiders come back. And they come back in full force! That is because the space you have is desired by spiders as well. They like climate controlled, shaded places that have water and food. Yes, I said food. Not the stuff you drop behind the counter in your kitchen. Nope. That’s the stuff that attracts the ants and bugs, which IS what spiders eat.

A pest professional will eliminate the source of the spiders food as well as the spiders themselves. They spray the corners, lay down bait and put up a protective barrier that prevent spiders from returning. Your pest professional may need to come by every month at first but can eventually come bi-monthly if the spider problem seems to be under control.
