## About This Service Area

Scarborough is served by Spider Squad as part of the Toronto service area. [Toronto regional overview](https://spidersquad.ca/toronto/index.md)

East Toronto district with Highland Creek system, Scarborough Bluffs, and Rouge Valley — all significant wildlife corridors. Blacklegged ticks confirmed in Rouge Valley (Rouge National Urban Park). Moderate tick risk for properties adjacent to the Rouge. Highland Creek and Scarborough Bluffs corridor drives elevated mosquito and spider activity.

## Spider Pressure in Scarborough

Spider pressure in Scarborough follows Toronto patterns, with the most common species being house spiders, cellar spiders, and wolf spiders in residential settings. Orb weavers appear on exterior structures in late summer. Species specific to the local environment (waterfront areas, cottage properties, ravine adjacency) are noted above.

The dominant entry routes are foundation gaps, window frame weatherstripping, and garage door seals. Exterior perimeter treatment at these zones is the most effective way to reduce indoor spider pressure.

## Mosquito Control in Scarborough

Moderate mosquito pressure — typical for residential Ontario. Treatment is most effective for properties with outdoor dining areas, patios, or decks used in the evenings.

## Tick Control in Scarborough
