Natural Spider Control: A Guide for Homeowners


Spiders are a common problem in many households. They can be creepy, scary, and some of them can even be dangerous to humans. Although most spiders are harmless, it is important to keep them out of your home for a variety of reasons. For instance, some spiders, such as black widows, brown recluse, and hobo spiders can be venomous and pose a threat to humans. Additionally, some spiders can be carriers of diseases and parasites.

Swat All Natural Pest Control in New Jersey is a trusted provider of natural spider control services. Our goal is to help homeowners get rid of spiders in a safe and effective way, without using harsh chemicals. In this blog, we’ll discuss the different types of spiders that are commonly found in homes and how to prevent and eliminate them naturally.

Types of Spiders Found in Homes

  1. House Spiders

House spiders are the most common type of spiders found in homes. They are harmless and do not pose a threat to humans. House spiders are usually light-colored and have long legs. They are often found in corners, near windows, and in basements.

  1. Black Widows

Black widows are venomous spiders that are known for their distinctive red hourglass shape on their abdomen. They are usually found in dark and undisturbed areas, such as garages, sheds, and basements.

  1. Brown Recluse

Brown recluse spiders are venomous and can cause serious health problems if bitten. They are light-brown in color and have a distinct violin-shaped mark on their head. They are usually found in dark and undisturbed areas, such as closets, basements, and attics.

  1. Hobo Spiders

Hobo spiders are venomous and can cause serious health problems if bitten. They are brown in color and have a distinct pattern of stripes on their legs. They are often found near windows and in basements.

Preventing Spiders from Entering Your Home

  1. Seal Cracks and Holes

Spiders can easily enter your home through cracks and holes in the walls and foundation. To prevent them from entering, it’s important to seal these areas with caulk or weather stripping.

  1. Keep the Outside of Your Home Clean

Spiders like to hide in clutter and debris. To prevent them from entering your home, it’s important to keep the outside of your home clean and free of clutter. Remove any piles of leaves, rocks, and other debris that can provide hiding places for spiders.

  1. Keep the Inside of Your Home Clean

Spiders like to hide in cluttered areas and are attracted to food sources. To prevent them from entering your home, it’s important to keep the inside of your home clean and free of clutter. Vacuum regularly, store food in airtight containers, and keep countertops and floors clean.

  1. Use Essential Oils

Essential oils, such as peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil, and lemon oil, are natural repellents for spiders. To use these oils as a deterrent, simply apply a few drops to cotton balls and place them in areas where spiders are commonly found, such as corners, windowsills, and doorways.

Eliminating Spiders Naturally

  1. Vacuum Regularly

Vacuuming regularly is an effective way to eliminate spiders from your home. It’s important to vacuum in areas where spiders are commonly found, such as corners, windowsills, and doorways. Be sure to dispose of the vacuum bag immediately after use to prevent the spiders from escaping.

  1. Use Natural Spider Repellents

There are several natural spider repellents that can be used to keep spiders away from your home. These include essential oils, vinegar, and diatomaceous earth.

Essential oils, such as peppermint, eucalyptus, and lemon, can be used to create a natural spider repellent spray. Simply mix a few drops of the oil with water in a spray bottle and apply it to areas where spiders are commonly found.

Vinegar can also be used as a natural spider repellent. Simply mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle and apply it to areas where spiders are commonly found.

Diatomaceous earth is a natural powder that is safe for humans and pets, but lethal to insects and spiders. It works by drying out the exoskeleton of the spider, causing it to dehydrate and die. To use diatomaceous earth as a spider repellent, simply sprinkle it around the perimeter of your home, in corners, and in other areas where spiders are commonly found.

  1. Use Spider Traps

Spider traps are a simple and effective way to eliminate spiders from your home. Simply place the traps in areas where spiders are commonly found and wait for them to be attracted to the trap. Once the spider is inside, it will not be able to escape, and you can dispose of it safely.
