Spiders are some of the most unwelcome guests you can find creeping across your floors and walls. While most spiders in Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley are harmless, their presence can still cause a lot of anxiety — not to mention unsightly webs around your home. For Pasadena residents, proper spider extermination and ongoing maintenance are essential for maintaining a safe, comfortable environment.
At Pasadena Pest Control, we understand how local spider activity fluctuates throughout the year — and we’re here to help you stay protected all year long.
How to Prevent Spider Infestations
�Keep Vegetation from Overhanging and Touching Your Home
Spiders can’t fly per se, but they come very close. If they are descending from a tree that is above your home, they can pretty much glide over. The harder you make it for them, the less likely it is to happen. Pest experts create barriers for spiders around the structure, and detailed ones also regularly put a barrier on the tree trunks regularly, at least for the ones near the home.
�Seal Entry Points:
This is easier said than done, particularly for old homes, so if you have a 100 year old home with gaps everywhere, you can probably ignore this one if you want to. Tiny gaps around doors, windows, roof junctions, vents, siding and foundations are prime spider entryways. Sealing these cracks goes a long way toward keeping them outside.
�Declutter Your Home & Garage:
Spiders love hiding in cluttered garages, basements, attics, and storage areas. Less clutter = fewer hiding spots and more areas available for chemical application. The more complete the chemical perimeter, the safer you and your family will be.
�Check the Underside of your Exterior Furniture and Kids Toys
Spiders, especially Black and Brown widows, love to lay their eggs in such places.
�Manage Other Pests:
Spiders often follow their food. Controlling ants, flies, and other insects cuts off their food supply — and encourages them to move elsewhere.
Immediate Spider Extermination
Our team at Pasadena Pest Control offers targeted spider extermination to eliminate active infestations fast. We begin by identifying the types of spiders present and any high-risk zones inside and outside your home. Our professional spider control service includes:
- Thorough removal of webs and egg sacs around eaves, windows, outdoor furniture, and other hiding spots
- Customized exterior treatments that create protective barriers and knock down existing spiders
- Interior treatments as needed, focusing on basements, attics, garages, and other spider-prone areas
We use effective, eco-conscious products that not only eliminate spiders but also discourage re-entry.
Why Regular Maintenance is Essential
One-time extermination helps solve the immediate problem — but without ongoing protection, spiders (and the pests they feed on) can quickly return. And some spiders, like Black and Brown Widows, are year-round. Once spiders gain access to the subarea, walls, attic and living space, it can take a few services to eliminate them. That’s why we highly recommend enrolling in our Home Protection Plan.
Benefits of Our Home Protection Plan Include:
✔️ Detailed web and egg sac removal at each service
✔️ Tailored exterior treatments that adjust with seasonal pest activity
✔️ Up to four interior services per year — at no additional charge
✔️ Cursory property inspections to catch pest issues early
✔️ Discounts on rodent exclusions and special pest services
✔️ Year-round protection from spiders, ants, roaches, crickets, silverfish, and more
By staying ahead of spider breeding cycles and controlling the insects that attract them, we provide proactive, comprehensive protection for your home and family. Because of the sun exposure during Summer and rains during cooler months, it’s best to keep spider control monthly or bimonthly to ensure you have an effective spider barrier.
