Central Florida Spider Control
Spiders usually enter homes in search of food, shelter, and quiet places to build webs. In Central Florida’s warm climate, insect populations remain active most of the year, which can attract spiders to your property. If you’re noticing webs around windows, garages, patios, or ceilings, it’s often a sign that other insects are present nearby.
Our spider control service focuses on removing spiders and eliminating the conditions that allow them to thrive around your home.
Common reasons spiders appear around homes include:
- Outdoor lighting attracting insects (which attract spiders)
- Cracks or gaps around doors and windows
- Cluttered garages, sheds, or storage areas
- Overgrown landscaping near the home
- High insect activity around the property
Common Spiders in Central Florida
Central Florida is home to many spider species. While most are harmless and help control insect populations, many homeowners prefer to keep them outside rather than sharing living spaces with them. Knowing which spiders are common in the area can help you recognize when it’s time to call for professional spider control.
Wolf Spider
Wolf spiders are large, fast-moving spiders often found in garages, yards, and around foundations. They do not build traditional webs and instead hunt insects at night. While their size can be alarming, they are generally not aggressive toward humans.
Southern Black Widow
Black widows are one of the few spiders in Florida considered medically significant. Recognizable by their shiny black bodies and red hourglass marking, they prefer dark, undisturbed areas like sheds, woodpiles, and garages.
Common House Spider
House spiders are one of the most common spiders found indoors. They build irregular webs in corners, basements, garages, and behind furniture. While harmless, their webs can quickly become unsightly.
Cellar Spider
Sometimes called “daddy longlegs,” cellar spiders are known for their long legs and loose webs. They are commonly found in basements, garages, and ceiling corners.
