Our Method
Since every spider situation is unique, we’ll come up with a custom solution for you. With over 10 years of experience spraying for spiders, we’re Ontario‘s leading provider of spider control services. Learn how we keep spiders (and other common household pests) out of your home:
We’ll perform a walk-through around your home, checking entryways and hotspots for signals of spider activity. If you have an active infestation, we’ll begin eliminating spiders during this initial visit.
We’ll begin by reducing favorable spider conditions. This includes, but is not limited to, decluttering your yard and crawl space, and removing any ground covers against your walls. We’ll sweep the perimeter of your home (windows, doors, utility boxes, etc.).
If spiders are coming indoors hunting for prey, we’ll carefully apply a residual insecticide around all entry points and the perimeter of your home. We’ll also spray along baseboards, in corners, and under furniture. These two treatments keep spiders where they belong… outdoors.
If you’re dealing with a large spider problem, we’ll also apply insecticide dust in your attic, between your wall voids, and under your baseboards. We use a cobweb duster head to brush the dust into hard-to-reach areas like the corners of your basement, garage, and porch to ensure full coverage.
Finally, we’ll use glue boards to catch spiders and monitor the population. We’ll place these in hotspots and areas of activity. This step allows us to ensure your spider control program is effective and make adjustments as needed. Our goal is to keep your family safe and your home spider-free!

Pest Control in Hamilton
Hamilton has unusually varied terrain for a large urban area. Properties can sit near the Niagara Escarpment, Red Hill Valley, Hamilton Harbour, Lake Ontario shoreline, wooded ravines, established residential streets, or newer suburban development. These differences can affect where spiders find shelter and where recurring web-building develops.
Building type matters as well. Older Lower City homes may experience activity around basement windows, porches, foundations, and structural gaps, while Mountain and suburban properties may see recurring webs around attached garages, soffits, exterior lights, windows, and decks.
Mosquito Man begins with a site inspection to identify active spiders, webbing, likely entry areas, and recurring hotspots. Accessible web removal, targeted liquid treatment, dusting where appropriate, and monitoring can then focus on the locations where activity is actually occurring.
Step 1
Accessible interior and exterior areas are checked for active spiders, fresh webbing, egg sacs, likely entry points, protected harbourage, and recurring hotspots.
Inspection can include soffits, windows, doors, eaves, porches, decks, garages, basement windows, foundations, exterior lighting, utility openings, and other areas where spider activity has been noticed.
Step 2
Existing accessible webbing is cleared from relevant treatment areas.
Vegetation touching structures, clutter, ground cover against walls, stored materials, and other conditions that can provide spiders with sheltered habitat can also be identified. Reducing these conditions complements treatment of active and recurring hotspots.
Step 3
Where appropriate, liquid treatment is directed toward entry points and structural areas where spiders are active.
Potential treatment locations include soffits, window and door frames, cracks, crevices, eaves, foundations, porches, decks, garages, and other hotspots identified during inspection.
Step 4
Suitable concealed or difficult-to-reach areas can receive dust treatment when spider activity and structural conditions support it.
Potential locations include attic spaces, wall voids, baseboard gaps, basement corners, garage areas, porches, and other protected structural spaces where additional treatment is appropriate.
Monitoring can be used around active and recurring hotspots after treatment.
This helps determine whether spiders continue appearing around the same structural areas and whether the control program needs to be adjusted.
Exterior activity is reduced, while spiders can remain in protected structural spaces such as basements, garages, storage areas, utility rooms, and sheltered corners.
Warming temperatures begin increasing insect and spider activity around foundations, windows, entrances, garages, exterior walls, and sunny structural surfaces.
Exterior insect activity and web-building become more noticeable around porches, decks, exterior lights, windows, soffits, garages, vegetation, and building edges.
Outdoor activity can remain noticeable while protected structural locations become increasingly important around entrances, garages, basement windows, foundations, utility openings, and sheltered corners.
Exterior activity generally declines as colder conditions return, while basements, garages, storage areas, utility spaces, and other protected locations remain relevant.
Hamilton’s seasonal spider pattern is closely connected to its varied landscape. The city has thousands of acres of parkland and open space, more than 49 km of City-owned trails, and natural corridors along the Niagara Escarpment, Red Hill Valley, waterfront, and numerous ravines. During warmer periods, vegetation and insect activity can make exterior lights, porches, decks, windows, garages, and rooflines important hotspots, while cooler conditions shift attention toward basements, garages, utility areas, and other sheltered structural spaces.
Hamilton is geographically diverse, so spider-control priorities can differ substantially between neighbourhoods and property settings.
These examples demonstrate how spider-control planning can change according to property setting. They are illustrative situations rather than actual customer case studies.
“Hamilton’s terrain makes property-by-property inspection especially important. A home near the escarpment or a ravine can have very different spider hotspots from a dense Lower City property or a newer Mountain home. We look for the places spiders repeatedly use and build the treatment around those areas.”
