Limit spider nesting spots on your property by removing piles of wood, rocks, leaves, and other debris. To stop spiders from gaining easy access into your home or business, trim back overgrown shrubs and bushes from the exterior of your structure. Inspect your building’s exterior and repair any openings around windows and doors, the foundation, exterior walls, or the roofline. Keep the grass short and plant garden areas a distance away from the exterior of your property. Make sure to keep gutters and downspouts free of debris and fix dripping fixtures and pipes to get rid of their easy access to water.
Environmentally, spiders are very important pests. They are predators that feed on a wide variety of garden and other nuisance pests, helping to keep their populations from overtaking an area. However, nobody wants their home or business overrun with spiders either. Contact us at Mrs. Green Planet for help today!
