February 02, 20252 min read

Ever wondered why these eight-legged visitors seem to find your home so welcoming? Let’s be real, no one wants to chase spiders around. But don’t worry, knowing why they’re coming in might help you keep them out. Here are a few friendly tips on why spiders may be deciding to hang out at your cosy home:

Why Spiders Might Be Snuggling Up in Your Home
1. A Feast Awaits: Insect Buffet

Amazingly, spiders will not chase your leftovers or crumbs from your counter. They’re here for the bugs drawn to your food. In addition to looking nice, keeping your abode clean also makes it less attractive to little critters that spiders love to munch on.

2. Just Right Humidity

Spiders enjoy a little humidity. It’s basically a spa day for them daily in damp spaces of your home, such as basements or crawl spaces. They’re just trying to chill in the comfort of that moist environment and snag their next meal.

3. Cozy Corners for Shelter

Have a garden run amok or maybe some broken appliances sitting around in the yard? These are luxury resort spots for most spiders. These make perfect hideouts from the elements and excellent webs to create.

4. Lovely Gardens

Those lovely blossoms and pristine lawns aren’t just for curb appeal  they can lure in a bevy of natural critters, including spiders. They’re great at preventing many other pests, but you might want to keep an eye out to ensure none of the spiders you see are of the bad kind.

Common Spider Sightings

There are a number of different spiders throughout Perth, but common examples include the Daddy long-legs and the more serious Australian funnel-web, the Brown house spider, the dubious Redback and the Whitetail spider.

How Do Spiders Sneak In?

Mostly, spiders don’t try to crash your pad  they kind of just wander in while hunting prey or looking around. Sometimes they ride along on things like plants or firewood.

Got a Spider Situation?

If you’ve had a few too many spiders for one day, it’s time to call in the pros. Pest control professionals can determine the types of spiders in your home, offer prevention strategies and provide targeted treatments to keep spiders out of your home.

So, there you have it! A little insight into why these critters might be drawn to your house. With a few adjustments, you can make your home less appealing to them and more tranquil for you.
