Our pest control professionals can inspect your property, identify areas of spider activity, locate webs and potential harborage areas, and recommend an appropriate treatment and prevention plan.

Brooklyn Spider Exterminators

Spiders often establish themselves in quiet, undisturbed areas where they can find shelter and a steady supply of insects to feed on.
You may notice spiders around windows, basements, garages, attics, exterior walls, porches, eaves, or other less-frequently used areas.
Simply removing a web may make the area look better temporarily, but it doesn't necessarily address why spiders are there in the first place.
That's why Empire Pest Control takes a broader approach to spider control.
Our technicians can look for:

• Active spiders
• Spider webs
• Egg sacs
• Potential harborage areas
• Insect activity that may be attracting spiders
• Gaps and openings around the property
• Areas where spiders can enter or establish themselves

Empire uses an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach as part of its pest control services, combining inspection, targeted treatment, and prevention.

Signs You May Have a Spider Problem

Seeing an occasional spider doesn't necessarily mean you have an infestation.
However, recurring activity may indicate that spiders have established themselves around your property or that another pest problem is providing them with a food source.
Signs of ongoing spider activity can include:

• Multiple spiders appearing indoors
• Spider webs around windows and doors
• Webs in basements or garages
• Egg sacs attached to walls or structures
• Spiders around exterior lights
• Webs around eaves and entryways
• Increasing spider activity around your property
• Spiders appearing in areas where insects are also present

If you're constantly cleaning webs only to find them back again, professional pest control may be the next step.

 

Common Spiders Found Around Brooklyn

Different spider species have different behaviors and preferred habitats.

House Spiders

House spiders may establish webs in quiet areas around homes and buildings, particularly where insects are readily available.

Cellar Spiders

Often referred to as "daddy longlegs," cellar spiders can be found in basements, crawl spaces, garages, and other dark or relatively undisturbed areas.

Wolf Spiders

Wolf spiders are active hunters and generally don't rely on traditional webs to catch their prey. They may enter buildings while searching for food or shelter.

Jumping Spiders

These smaller spiders are active hunters and may be encountered around windows, walls, gardens, and other areas where insects are present.

Other Spider Species

Not every spider found around a Brooklyn property presents the same concern. Proper identification can help determine whether control measures are appropriate.
If you're unsure what type of spider you're seeing, Empire Pest Control can help identify the problem and determine the appropriate next step.

 

 

Where Do Spiders Hide?

Spiders tend to favor areas that provide shelter, protection, and access to prey.
Common areas where spider activity may occur include:

Basements

Dark, quiet spaces can provide spiders with shelter and access to insects.

Garages

Garages can provide plenty of hiding places, especially around corners, storage areas, and less-disturbed spaces.

Attics

Spiders may establish webs around rafters, vents, windows, and other secluded areas.

Windows & Doors

Gaps around windows and doors can provide entry points while exterior lighting may attract insects that spiders feed on.

Eaves & Exterior Walls

Outdoor webs are often found around eaves, overhangs, porches, and other protected portions of a structure.

Cluttered Areas

Storage areas, sheds, and other spaces with limited activity can provide attractive hiding locations.

 

Spider Control for Brooklyn Apartments & Homes

Brooklyn's diverse housing stock includes apartments, brownstones, townhouses, condos, co-ops, and single-family homes.
Spider activity can occur in virtually any type of property, particularly in basements, garages, storage areas, attics, and around exterior entry points.
Empire Pest Control provides residential pest control throughout Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, The Bronx, and Staten Island.
Whether you're dealing with a few persistent webs or ongoing spider activity throughout your home, our team can help determine what may be attracting them and what control options are appropriate.

 

How to Help Prevent Spiders

Professional pest control is an important part of managing recurring spider activity, but there are also steps property owners can take to make their property less attractive to spiders.

Keep Areas Clean & Organized

Reduce unnecessary clutter in basements, garages, attics, and storage areas.

Remove Webs

Regularly remove visible webs and egg sacs from accessible areas.

Reduce Insects

Because spiders feed on insects, addressing other pest activity can help reduce available food sources.

Check Doors & Windows

Inspect screens, doors, windows, and other potential entry points for gaps.

Reduce Outdoor Lighting When Practical

Exterior lights can attract insects, which can in turn attract spiders.

Keep Vegetation Maintained

Trim vegetation away from the structure when practical and keep exterior areas maintained.

Address Moisture

Repair leaks and address unnecessary moisture around the property.
