Spiders are common around Sydney properties, but a growing spider problem can become unpleasant and, depending on the species, potentially dangerous. Spiders may hide in gardens, roof spaces, garages, sheds, wall cavities and other sheltered areas around your property.
Ready Pest Control provides professional spider pest control and spider removal services across Sydney and Western Sydney. Our licensed technicians inspect your property, identify areas of spider activity and use professional treatment methods to help control existing spiders and reduce the conditions that may encourage them to return.
Spiders are arachnids with eight legs and two main body sections. Their size, colour and appearance can vary significantly depending on the species.
Some spiders are small and difficult to notice, while others may be larger and easily visible in gardens, garages, sheds and outdoor areas. Many species build webs to catch prey, while others actively hunt and hide in cracks, cavities and sheltered locations.
If you are unsure whether a spider may be dangerous, avoid handling it and contact a professional pest control technician for advice. If you are unsure whether a spider may be dangerous, avoid handling it and contact a professional pest control technician for advice.

Spiders prefer areas that provide shelter, food and protection from weather conditions. Around Sydney homes and businesses, spiders may be found in both indoor and outdoor areas. Regular spider activity around a particular location may indicate suitable harbourage conditions or an increased supply of insects that spiders feed on. A professional inspection can help identify the areas contributing to ongoing spider activity.
Most spiders are not aggressive and generally avoid contact with people. However, some spider species can deliver a painful or medically significant bite. Spiders may also become a concern when they are frequently found inside homes, near children's play areas, around workplaces or in areas where people regularly reach, walk or store equipment. It is important to avoid handling unfamiliar spiders and to take extra care when cleaning dark or undisturbed areas.
If someone experiences severe symptoms after a suspected spider bite, including difficulty breathing, severe swelling, dizziness, collapse or other signs of a serious reaction, seek urgent medical assistance and call 000 in an emergency.
Our spider control service begins with a thorough inspection of your property. We assess areas of spider activity, identify webs and harbourage locations and look for conditions that may be attracting spiders. Our licensed technicians then apply an appropriate professional treatment to targeted areas of the property. Treatment methods may vary depending on the spider species, level of activity and the conditions around the property.
Avoid touching or attempting to catch unfamiliar spiders, particularly if you are unsure of the species. Be careful when moving stored items, cleaning sheds or entering dark and undisturbed areas where spiders may be hiding.
If you are experiencing ongoing spider activity or have concerns about potentially dangerous spiders around your property, professional spider pest control is a safer and more effective option.
