Spiders

Black Widows typically nest in dark or shaded areas.

Brown Widows a newer species being seen in Southern California.

There are many common reasons to not like spiders, but spiders are a vital part of our ecosystem as they feed mostly on flying insects in nature. Unfortunately, nesting in close proximity to humans has caused spider populations to explode. Spiders begin their infestation by nesting on and around your home where they rapidly hatch new broods. Soon, the newly hatched spiders are finding their own place in your home, garage, attic, and garden to continue the cycle. Southern California is home to numerous species of spiders which range from common pests and garden visitors to concerning and dangerous species that can bite us and our pets.
At elite pest management we offer a range of services to get rid of and keep spiders at bay for good.
