How AstraHive Pest Control gets rid of spiders in Cornell

1. Inspection of where spiders hide indoors and how they get in.
2. Exterior barrier around the foundation, doors, windows and entry points.
3. Interior treatment or wall-void dust only where the inspection shows it is needed.

More on spiders for Cornell homeowners

• Dense vegetation close to the foundation shelters insects, which means more available prey and more reason for spiders to stay nearby. That doesn't mean every garden automatically causes a spider problem, but it is a factor worth checking when webs are concentrated on one side of a house. (Why Spiders Are Inside Your Home (And What They're Actually Following))
• Yellow outdoor bulbs attract fewer insects than white ones, which gives spiders less to feed on near the house. (Health Canada: spiders)
• Sweeping away webs and trapping a spider under a glass jar to carry it outside are simple ways to remove one. (Health Canada: spiders)
