Eltham homes collect spiders because the bush supplies insects all year and the timber, the deep eaves, the verandahs, the decks and the woodpiles give them everything to web on. Black house spiders build funnel webs in every window frame and under every eave, huntsmen come inside through the gaps in older timber homes when the weather turns, and redbacks tuck into the underside of outdoor furniture, the switchboard, the woodpile and the kids' play gear.
Our spider treatment covers the full roofline, eaves, gutters, every window and door surround, the verandah, the deck, fence lines, the carport, the shed and any outdoor play equipment, then we web-brush the obvious nests so the house looks clean straight away. Inside we treat skirtings, behind furniture and the garage. On bush blocks the woodpile, the tank stand and the outbuildings get done too. Most homes see a clear drop within days and stay that way for the season.
