Successful control of spiders comes from understanding them. There are two types of spiders, Orb Spiders (Web Spinning) and Wandering spiders.
The katipÅ (Latrodectus katipo) and the redback spider (Latrodectus hasselti) are the only venomous spiders found in New Zealand. Only the adult females are capable of biting humans.
White-tailed spiders are dark grey spiders 12-17mm long and readily recognised by their elongate body form and a distinctive white patch on the end of the abdomen.
Their preferred habitat is under dry bark and plants but will often be seen inside houses, where they look for shelter from the light, after hunting at night. The spider often hides in clothing, especially if it is left lying around on the floor. They eat other spiders, so if other spiders are making a home in your home, white-tailed spiders are likely to also be present.
We take a multi approach to treating for spiders including:
The treatment will take 1 to 1.5 hours depending on the size of the house, ease of access and spider infestation. Results can last up to 6 months; however, this is dependent on the residual insecticide remaining on the house. If it is washed off or exposed to extreme weather this may reduce the effectiveness. We recommend washing your house prior to a treatment.
Are the treatments safe for my family and pets?
Of course! All the products we use are (EPA) Environmental Protection Authority approved and used to exact specifications every time. Your family’s safety is our number one priority.
What do I need to do to prepare?
Before your treatment we’ll email you a list of preparation instructions and after treatment care and your technician will take the time to check everything is done when they arrive on treatment day.
