Spider Signs & Species in Ohio
Ohio is home to a variety of indoor and outdoor spider species. While most are not dangerous to humans, some can bite or trigger allergic reactions — and all are unsettling when they show up inside your home.
Common spiders we treat include:
- Black wolf spiders (large, fast, and intimidating but not venomous)
- Cellar spiders (commonly found in basements and garages)
- House spiders (build webs in corners and ceilings)
- Jumping spiders (small but quick and startling)
- Occasional brown recluse sightings (rare in Ohio, but serious if bitten)
Signs you may have a spider issue include:
- Multiple
webs appearing overnight
- Presence of
egg sacs in corners, windows, or closets
- Frequent
sightings, especially in dark or undisturbed spaces
- Increased insect activity, which attracts spiders to feed
Our spider control process includes targeted treatments to kill active spiders, eliminate egg sacs, and reduce food sources — which means fewer bugs, and fewer reasons for spiders to stick around.
Why Spiders Invade & How We Treat Them
Ants and spiders often go hand-in-hand in Ohio homes. Where there are food crumbs, moisture, and easy access points, ants will find a way — and spiders may follow.
Why ants show up:
- Warmer temperatures drive them indoors
- Moist environments attract thirsty colonies
- Sweets, pet food, and grease serve as ideal food sources
- Gaps in doors, windows, and foundations give them easy entry
We treat ant infestations with a combination of:
- Interior baiting to eliminate nests at the source
- Perimeter sprays to block access
- Crack and crevice treatments for wall-nesting species
- Exterior granular treatments for large colonies in yards or mulch beds
By reducing ant activity, we also cut off the food supply for many indoor spiders. It's a win-win strategy.
Preventative Solutions That Work
One-time treatments can clear out active infestations — but true protection comes from ongoing prevention.
Our spider and insect prevention services include:
- Quarterly or bi-monthly applications based on seasonal needs
- Exterior barrier sprays to stop invaders before they enter
- Web and egg sac removal during each visit
- Inspections and recommendations for sealing common entry points
- Monitoring programs for properties with recurring issues
These services are ideal for:
- Homes near wooded or rural areas
- Basements, garages, or attics with insect activity
- Families looking for consistent peace of mind
- We’ll build a plan based on your specific environment — and adjust as the seasons (and pests) change.
