Hudson
Spiders Control

We have a wide variety to choose from for types of land to live on in Hudson. We can be on a lake, on the river, in the trees, on a hill, or right in the heart of commerce. Regardless of where we choose to live, there is one thing that is constant – the presence of spiders. We may not all have the same spiders, but nature has produced a spider for every situation we choose to live in. Fortunately, Hudson spider control can be customized to each situation to keep them away.

Lake Mallaleu, the St. Criox River, and small ponds beautify the Hudson landscape. Somehow this amount of water isn’t enough. We add in water features and small containers that capture rainfall regardless of our intentions. It is important to note that we are not the only creatures drawn to water. Insects depend on water as well. Since spiders eat insects, spiders know to hang out near water for a snack or full blown meal.

We don’t need to eliminate the water from our lives and landscapes for proper Hudson spider control. We simply need to manage the water. Do our water features stay clean and maintained? Are there parts of our landscapes that allow for unnecessary water pooling? Have we built hiding spots for spiders to hang out and hunt near the water? These and other questions can supply the starting point for spider reduction in and around businesses and homes throughout Hudson.

In addition to water, some insects share our affinity for light. There are plenty of insects that prefer to hang out in the dark nasty places of nightmares, but many are drawn to light. When webs begin to accumulate in or on different parts of the structure, it is important to see how they relate to light. Are the webs around porch lights? Does light flood out of the bay window in the evening? Is light from one room filtering down through cracks into the basement, cellar, or other room?

Let’s not go too far and live in darkness like prehistoric cave dwellers. Light brightens our days and exchanges in more ways than one. If we find that spiders are accumulating in one area we ca n reduce the light, change the timing of the lighting, or simply change the type of lighting to one that is less attractive to insects. By cutting down on insect activity, spiders will be less inclined to set up shop and challenge our Hudson spider control plans.

Trees are great for the environment, provide us with shade, shelter us from the wind, and are simply beautiful – even the scraggly ones in the dead of winter. Insects also use trees to mediate their environment and the impacts of weather. In addition, insects derive much to all of their nutrition from certain trees and plant life. Since insects often gather and hang out in, around, and under trees, certain spider species will join in the feeding fest.

It may be tempting to go all Paul Bunyan on the yards in your neighborhood, but the trees don’t cause spider issues, they are simply a starting place to make simple changes. Examine trees in the vicinity for:

• Contact with structures
• Overgrown branches
• Excessive collection of leaves, pine needles, or other debris

Proper management of plant life is a great booster for Hudson spider control.

Water, light and plants are the starting checklist for Hudson spider control, but much more can be done. Rove’s spider specialists will identify the type of spiders disturbing the peace and determine the best spider control tools to keep them from being a bother.
