At Preventive, we prioritize what matters most: your family’s safety and peace of mind. Our expert team uses proven, child- and pet-safe treatments that protect your home from pests year-round, ensuring a happy, healthy environment for those you love.
For us, your safety comes first. That's why we prepare our spider treatments away from your property. While many pest control companies mix and handle potent chemicals on-site, we believe in taking preventive measures. By preparing our treatments off-site, we reduce the risk of your family being exposed to undiluted, potentially harmful chemicals.
Before delving into treatments, it's essential for us to understand the scope of the infestation. Our team inspects your property from top to bottom to identify the primary entry points and hiding spots used by spiders.
Post-examination, our team employs specialized methods tailored to address your spider concern effectively. By focusing on identified entry points and hiding areas, we don't just target existing spiders but also put measures in place to prevent future intrusions. This comprehensive approach ensures that every nook and cranny becomes inhospitable for these eight-legged intruders.
Hear from our customers
“I've been a happy customer of Preventive Pest Control for over a year now. They are always timely with scheduling my quarterly treatment, and I love that they spray both the outside perimeter and the inside perimeter of my house, as well as coming back if I start seeing pests and need an additional spray before my next quarterly treatment.”
Aubrey
“We have been using Preventive Pest Control for years. They are great. Always here when we need them.”
Sharon
“PPC came out to our house to treat for spiders and wasps. They were extremely professional and efficient! My wife hates to see spiders and asks that our inside window sills get sprayed. They politely did just that and we have seen no pests since. We have used Preventive Pest Control over 6 years now. Amazing service, great quality, and good value. They keep sending sharp technicians! I wouldn't go with any other company.”

Keith
“I've been a customer with Preventative Pest Control for 4-5 years now. They are great to work with - always professional and thorough with their treatments, and if you continue having issues following a treatment, they are great to come back out and do a re-treatment and no additional cost. Ky just came to my place today and he spent extra care ensuring he treated all areas and removed any wasps nests.”

Several factors can draw spiders to your bed. Often, it's the warmth and potential shelter that beds provide, especially if there are other pests present, that they prey upon. Clean linens, regular vacuuming, and ensuring no food is consumed in or near the bed can help reduce the attraction.
What percent of house spiders are poisonous?
Most spiders are not dangerous to humans. In fact, of the thousands of spider species, only a small percentage possess venom that can harm humans. In the U.S., for instance, the primary concerns are the Black Widow and the Brown Recluse. However, the majority of house spiders are harmless and serve as beneficial predators of other pests.
How do you spider-proof a room?
Spider-proofing a room involves a few key steps. Regularly clean and declutter the room, especially in dark, undisturbed areas. Seal cracks or gaps in windows and doorways. Ensure that other pests, which spiders prey upon, are managed. Lastly, consider using natural repellents like essential oils to deter them.
What smells attract and repel spiders?
Spiders have a strong aversion to certain smells. Peppermint, eucalyptus, tea tree, and lavender essential oils are known to repel them. Conversely, they are attracted to environments with abundant prey (like other pests), so any smell that attracts insects can indirectly attract spiders as well.
Does squishing a spider attract more?
The idea that killing a spider will attract more is an old wive’s tale. Spiders are solitary creatures. They don’t come rushing as a response to a fallen comrade. However, if you’re seeing numerous spiders, it indicates a favorable environment with plentiful food sources and shelter, and it’s probably time to start considering professional pest control.
