Spider Prevention Guide
Stop spiders from coating your siding and windows in sticky webs. Learn proven DIY methods and professional exterior barrier treatments from Spider Squad.
To keep spiders off your siding and windows, eliminate nighttime exterior lighting that attracts insects, seal window frame caulk joints, and apply a professional micro-encapsulated exterior residual barrier like SpiderShield™ twice per season (spring and mid-summer).
Spiders are opportunistic predators. Exterior lights and indoor light spilling through windows attract moths, midges, and mosquitoes at dusk. Spiders build webs directly over window frames, security cameras, and soffit vents to capitalize on this food source.
To break this cycle, you must eliminate both the webs and the insect prey population supporting them.
Warm yellow lighting (bug bulbs) emits wavelengths that flying insects cannot detect, drastically cutting prey.
Seal cracks around window casings, hose bibs, and dryer vents with elastomeric silicone.
A professional barrier on window sills and eaves prevents spiders from spinning new webs for months.
If your siding has heavy grime, algae, or stubborn dried-on webs, power washing or soft washing first creates a clean baseline. Following up with Spider Squad's residual barrier ensures spiders don't return to rebuild webs across your freshly cleaned exterior.
