Spider and crawling insect extermination
Montreal, Laval and the South Shore
Webs that come back the day after you clean, spiders in every corner of the basement, outside walls covered in webs in August: a lot of spiders is often a sign of another insect problem. We treat both.
Most spiders in Quebec are harmless, but large numbers of them are annoying, worrying and messy. They come into buildings for one simple reason: to feed. Where there are insects, spiders follow. They settle in quiet, dark places, then use cracks, windows and ducts to get around.
That's why removing the webs doesn't fix anything. To reduce spiders over the long term, you have to deal with their food, their ways in and the spots they like. Our treatments target spiders, ants and other crawling insects at the same time.
Why spiders move into your home
A supply of insects
Flies, gnats, ants: spiders set up wherever their food goes by.
Quiet, dark places
Basements, garages, ceiling corners, the underside of decks and eaves.
Easy ways in
Cracks, damaged screens, poorly fitted doors, ducts and soffits.
Changing seasons
In the fall, they look for shelter; in summer, they take over lit-up exterior walls.
Signs you need a treatment
The sooner you spot the signs, the simpler the treatment.
- Webs that come back soon after cleaning
- Spiders turning up regularly in the same rooms or corners
- Exterior walls, soffits and window frames covered in webs
- Other insects around for them to feed on
- Egg sacs in corners, behind furniture or in the garage

Frequently asked questions
Can't find what you're looking for? A technician answers 24/7.
Call 514-231-1615Are Quebec spiders dangerous?
The species found in homes around here are almost all harmless. The problem is mostly their numbers, the webs and the discomfort they cause, and what they reveal: a population of insects that feeds them.
Do you treat other crawling insects too?
Yes. Ants, earwigs, sow bugs, millipedes and other crawling insects are covered by the same type of treatment. For cockroaches or bed bugs, call us: we'll assess the situation and suggest the right approach.
Do I need to leave the house during the treatment?
In most cases, no. The technician tells you what precautions to take, depending on the products and the areas treated.
