External areas often become the first hotspot
Sheds, patios, fence lines and roof edges are common spider activity zones because they offer cover, lower disturbance and plenty of insects. Once these areas build up, spider pressure can move closer to doors, windows and internal spaces.
- Keep clutter down in sheds and storage corners.
- Reduce lighting that attracts insects directly near entry doors.
- Clear old webs early so new activity is easier to spot.
- Consider treatment before the issue spreads toward living areas.
