🕷️ Spider Season 2025 – Derby & Ripley

Spider season peaks from September through November as spiders seek warm shelter indoors before winter. 2025 has seen an unusually high number of false widow spiders across Derbyshire, leading to increased callouts for professional removal.

Why Spiders Enter Homes in Autumn:

Seeking warmth as outdoor temperatures drop
Hunting for insects (your home attracts their food source)
Breeding season – females lay eggs indoors
Longer nights mean more time indoors
Mating season increases spider activity and visibility

When Does Spider Season End?

Spider season typically runs September through November, with peak activity in October. By December, most spiders have either died or entered dormancy. However, some species (like false widows) remain active indoors year-round.

⚠️ Act Now: Peak spider season is happening NOW. Professional removal prevents egg-laying and reduces winter infestations. Call 07366 395842 for same-day service.

Spider removal typically costs between £[low price] and £[high price] depending on the infestation severity and property size. We offer free inspections and quotes with no obligation. Call 07366 395842 for pricing.

When does spider season end in the UK?

Spider season typically peaks from September through November, with October being the busiest month. Most spiders die or enter dormancy by December, but some species (like false widows) remain active indoors year-round. Professional removal during peak season prevents winter infestations.

Are false widow spiders dangerous?

False widow spiders are venomous but rarely bite. If they do bite, the venom is similar to a mosquito bite – mild discomfort for most people. However, professional removal is recommended if you're concerned or have allergies. We can identify the species during your free inspection.

How can I prevent spiders from entering my home?

Key prevention methods include: sealing cracks and gaps around windows/doors, reducing outdoor lighting (attracts insects spiders hunt), removing clutter and cobwebs regularly, and controlling other insects (flies, moths) that spiders feed on. We provide detailed prevention advice during your visit.

Do you remove spider webs and egg sacs?

Yes. Web and egg sac removal is included in our spider control service. Removing egg sacs is critical to preventing new spiders hatching indoors. We also provide advice on preventing web formation in future.

Is spider removal safe for children and pets?

Yes. All our removal methods are safe for children and pets when applied correctly. We'll provide clear aftercare instructions and answer any safety questions before starting treatment.
