Protect Vinyl Siding, Trim & Boat Hulls
Noticed tiny, stubborn black or dark-brown specks clustered along your white vinyl siding, window trim, boat hulls, or porch ceilings? Learn what causes spider droppings, how to clean them safely, and why exterior barrier spraying is the only permanent solution.
Those small, tar-like dark dots clustered beneath roof peaks, outdoor lights, and window frames are spider droppings (feces and uric acid waste). Because spiders feed on liquefied insect prey, their waste contains thick pigments and digestive enzymes that bond aggressively to vinyl siding, painted wood, composite decking, and boat gelcoats.
Spider droppings smear when scrubbed with warm water and soap and cluster directly below webs and outdoor light fixtures.
Use warm water, mild dish soap, or oxygen bleach solutions. Avoid harsh abrasive scrubbers that scratch vinyl UV coatings.
Scrubbing clean siding is temporary—if active spiders remain on your eaves, new droppings will appear within 48 hours.
Preventing spider feces requires eliminating the spiders roosting above your clean siding. Spider Squad's professional barrier program stops the cycle:
