Our Approach to Spider Extermination

At Geiger's Pest Services, we emphasize eco-conscious methods, using the latest monitoring and application technologies. Our licensed and insured professionals ensure minimal disruption while delivering comprehensive pest management solutions. Here’s how our process works:

  • Initial Assessment: We conduct a thorough inspection to identify spider types and infestation levels.
  • Custom Treatment Plan: Our team develops a personalized strategy, utilizing environmentally friendly solutions specific to your property's needs.
  • Prevention & Maintenance: Post-treatment, we provide ongoing monitoring and advice to help prevent future infestations, leveraging over 100 years of combined experience.

Each step of our process is designed with you in mind. We understand that the presence of spiders can cause anxiety, especially for families with small children or pets. Our team communicates each step clearly, ensuring you are comfortable with our approach and confident in our methods.

During an inspection, we take time to identify exactly where spiders are living and how they are getting into your living spaces. In many St. Petersburg homes, we find spiders nesting around pool cages, under patio furniture, in garages, and in undisturbed storage areas such as attics or sheds. By mapping these hotspots and documenting them with you, we can recommend practical steps like moving stored items off the floor, sealing small openings, and adjusting outdoor lighting that attracts flying insects.

Indoor And Outdoor Spider Problems We Commonly See

Spiders can show up in different ways depending on where you live and how your property is built, so it helps to know what we typically encounter in this area. Inside homes, we are often called when residents notice webbing in upper corners of rooms, behind wall-mounted decor, or in seldom-used guest bedrooms and closets. In garages and workshops, spiders tend to build webs near stored boxes, around door tracks, and on shelving where they can easily catch other insects. These locations give us valuable clues about how long the activity has been present and what conditions are allowing it to continue.

Outside, we routinely find webs around porch lights, along screened lanais, and under gutters where moisture and flying insects are common. In neighborhoods throughout St. Petersburg, spiders also like to hide in dense landscaping close to foundations, around air-conditioning units, and in the spaces under decks and stairways. During our visit, we point out these problem spots and explain which areas are simply cosmetic webbing and which ones raise more concern because of the type of spider involved. 

Our Community-Centric Approach

Our longstanding presence in Pinellas and Hillsborough counties underscores a deep-rooted understanding of Florida's pest challenges. We participate actively in community welfare through collaborations with local charities and the Florida Pest Management Association.

At Geiger's Pest Services, community isn't just where we do business; it's who we serve and support. We are proud members of the local community and are committed to building lasting relationships with our clients. Our involvement in local activities and support for community initiatives reflects this dedication, underscoring our commitment to not just removing pests but enhancing our clients' quality of life.

Preparing for Your Spider Service Appointment

A little preparation before your visit can make your service smoother and help us work more efficiently around your home. When you schedule an appointment with our team, we let you know what areas we plan to inspect so you can move personal belongings or fragile items out of the way if needed. Making sure we have clear access to baseboards, closets, garages, and outdoor entry points allows us to complete a more detailed inspection and treatment in a single visit.

It is also helpful to make a quick list of where you have seen spiders, webs, or egg sacs so we can focus on those locations first. Many homeowners in St. Petersburg notice activity around sliding glass doors, laundry rooms, and bathrooms where moisture is higher. Sharing these observations at the start of your appointment helps us confirm what you are experiencing and tailor our approach accordingly. 

Ongoing Spider Prevention Tips for St. Petersburg Homes

Professional treatments are most effective when they are supported by small changes around your home, and we believe in sharing practical steps you can maintain over time. Because our climate encourages both insects and spiders to stay active for much of the year, a combination of moisture control, exclusion, and good housekeeping habits can make a noticeable difference between visits. These actions are straightforward and do not require special tools or products, but they work best when they become part of your regular routine.

Simple changes around your property can greatly reduce spider activity:

  • Reduce outdoor clutter: Keep firewood, gardening supplies, and storage containers off the ground and away from exterior walls where spiders often hide.
  • Limit nighttime insect activity: Use yellow or warm-colored exterior bulbs that attract fewer flying insects, which are a primary food source for spiders.
  • Seal small openings: Add weatherstripping, door sweeps, and caulk around gaps in window frames, utility lines, and foundation cracks to reduce entry points.
  • Manage moisture: Fix leaky spigots, clear clogged gutters, and ensure proper drainage away from the home to discourage insects and the spiders that feed on them.

 

Inside, regular vacuuming of corners, window sills, and under furniture helps remove webs and egg sacs before they become larger issues. In many St. Petersburg homes, routinely checking rarely used rooms, attic access points, and storage closets can prevent a small problem from being overlooked for months.

If you're experiencing spider issues, don't let them disrupt your peace of mind. Contact Geiger's Pest Services at (727) 761-9385 for prompt, reliable service in St. Petersburg.

    Excellent service. We called and booked over the phone. Derek came out later that week. Was very polite, wore a face mask, took off his shoes and was super sweet to our excited pup. He quickly assessed the problem and gave us a solution immediately.

    "Their staff was mindful, considerate and professional during both treatments, and they really got the job done."
    Had to get termite treatment for our old wood frame house and found Geiger's Pest Services. They were punctual, and great with communicating with me what needed to be done, and scheduled separate subterranean and dry wood termite treatments.

    We had 2 other companies that just couldn't seem to get rid of the German roaches in the garage and their service was poor and quite slow to respond when needed.

    "I would definitely recommend this company!"
    Geiger was recommended, and I immediately liked not only the cost (a fraction of what the other companies quoted) but also their employees. Jamea in their office is outstanding and is always available if you have questions. Derek was the inspector who made
