Spider Control
Most of our population is terrified of spiders, but did you know that most spiders are harmless to humans? Even though spiders look poisonous and deadly, for the most part, general household spiders lack the venom. Moreover, spiders that can potentially harm a human only attack when they feel threatened. In some countries, spiders are actually honored as a crucial part of nature and its process.

Spiders Treatment
Unlike ants and other insects, spiders are usually around all year long. You would think they would fall into the category of the general insect population causing havoc only during warmer seasons. Not spiders. As temperatures drop towards the end of the year, spiders seek a warmer location to reside. In addition, another reason why spiders enter homes is to replenish their diet eating other insects caught indoors. These unwelcomed creepy crawlers can make their way into your home through various means such as cracks and crevices, doors, windows, etc.
An interesting fact about spiders is that they cannot eat solids. The only way they can eat is by spitting acid enzymes at their captured prey, liquefying them in the process then ingesting them. Spiders are generally a social species. However, some spiders are loners and are very aggressive like the black widow spider and the brown recluse spider (which are the most common household spiders to date). In addition to their aggressiveness, they are among the most dangerous spiders located in North America and spider control should be enforced.

Q. Is Suspend SC the best general use product for residential control?
I see that you recommend Suspend SC for spider control, yet the description for Suspend doesn't specifically list spiders. Is it really effective, or is there something better? My primary control needs are spiders and pillbugs (our condo was vacant for over a year before we bought it, and seems to be overrun with pillbugs. I also see more spiders than I care to). I would like to make my home very uninviting for ALL bugs though. Is Suspend SC my best option? Also for outside spraying, how wide of a band do you recommend spraying around the house? How often inside and out? Does Suspend SC only kill, or does it also serve to repel? Need something serious, as the common consumer-grade sprays I've tried that are sold in the big-box stores seems pretty lame.
A. Suspend SC is a very effective product for general house pests such as spiders, pillbugs, etc. It can be used both indoors and outdoors for thorough treatment. We recommend using about a 3 feet band for perimeter treatment. It has a residual time of about 3-4 months. It is not a repellent and kills insects that come in contact with the product. Suspend SC is a very popular product used by professionals.

Q. How to get rid of spiders, ants, and centipedes
I see a few spiders, ants and centipedes in my house as the days get warmer. I would like to know which product is most effective for indoor use and which would be most effective in keeping these types of bugs out.
A. Barrier treatments on the outside perimeter of the house are necessary for keeping such crawling insects out of the house. Suspend SC is a great product with a broad spectrum of insect pests that can be used inside and outside. If using around people and pets, make sure that the treated area is completely dry before reentry.

Q. product for spiders on boat
I need a little bit of assistance choosing a product for a specific application: I have a spider problem on the deck of a boat. While most good pesticides would work with great residual if this was a house, I need a product that will stick to the boat deck even when exposed to weather conditions. Is there a product that is more weather proof than the cyper WP and suspend SC I use now?
A. A product like Onslaught Insecticide that uses a capsulated suspension of the active ingredient may give you a longer residual time but since all sprays will breakdown with harsh weather conditions, it is difficult to tell you if there is a product that will last the longest.

Q. spiders killer
I want to get the spider control kit at $59.00. My question is, how safe is this with 5 cats who hunt, kill and eat bugs of all sorts in my home and garage? I love my babies. I do not want any mishaps at all. Please advise.
A. The products are all labeled for indoor and outdoor use. It is safe to use indoors. It is also safe for you and your pets once the products have dried, or settled.
If you pets were to consume a small amount of the product, it shouldn't be too harmful, but I would still take any precaution.
Your pet may feel dizziness if it were to consume some amount of it, but it shouldn't be overly hazardous. I would definitely contact the manufacturer and confirm with them.Was this helpful?

Q. spider control for marina's
I need to know if there is anything that can be used for controling spider problems at boat marina's on lakes in MO. Any kind of a misting system that could be in stalled and mantained like a Mosquito control system but only for spiders. Thanks
A.
We do not have a misting system that can be used for spider control. However we do have pesticides with a residual time that will help control the spider treatment.
Demon WP would be a highly recommended insecticide to use. Wettable powder forms of pesticides tend to last a little bit longer than the liquid concentrated pesticides.
However because it is a wettable powder it may have a hazy residual on dark surfaces.
If you want to use an aerosol can spray for your convenience, a recommended product to use would be Cy-kick Aerosol. However Cy-kick only has a residual time up to 1 month, where as the concentrated liquid or the wettable powder forms of pesticides will last up to 3 months.Was this helpful?

Q. Spiders Treatment
We have a lot of windows on our home and need to keep the spiders away. I need to know which chemical to buy.
A.
The best pesticide to use for spider treatment, both for prevention and/or control would be any pesticide with a long residual time. This means that the insecticide will last for a long period of time before having to re apply the pesticide to that area for continual effectiveness.
Such insecticides would be Suspend CS (3-4 months) or Demand CS (4-6months) The demand CS is micro encapsulated (the reason for its longer lasting residual time).
