Spiders in Florida: Eight legged Crawlers
Florida is home to sunshine, beaches, and… spiders? Yep! Our warm, humid climate is the perfect breeding ground for all sorts of eight-legged critters. While some spiders are harmless and even beneficial (they eat other pests), others can be a nuisance—especially when they take over your screened-in pool area!
At Infinite Pest Solutions, we believe your home (and your pool cage) should be a place to enjoy your space stress free. Let’s explore Florida’s most common spiders, why they love hanging around, and how our expert treatments can keep them out for good.
Common Florida Spiders You Might See
Florida is home to dozens of spider species, but here are a few you encounter in the sunshine state:
🕷 Golden Silk Orb-Weaver (Banana Spider) – These big, yellow-and-black spiders spin huge webs and often take over pool cages. Luckily, they’re harmless!
🕷 Black Widow – Recognizable by its red hourglass marking, the black widow prefers quiet, undisturbed areas like garages, sheds, and crawl spaces. Their bite is venomous, so it’s best to avoid them.
🕷 Brown Recluse – Rare but dangerous, this spider has a violin-shaped mark on its back and prefers dark, dry places. A bite from a brown recluse can cause serious skin reactions. W
🕷 Jumping Spiders – These tiny, furry spiders are more curious than scary! They don’t spin webs but love to hop around on walls, windows, and outdoor furniture.
🕷 Wolf Spiders – Large and fast-moving, these spiders prefer to hunt rather than spin webs. They can be startling but are mostly harmless. Do wolf spiders bite? Yes, although they can bite, they are not venomous. These are commonly mistaken for the Brown Recluse.
Why Do Spiders Love Florida Homes?
Spiders move in for one main reason—food! If your home has plenty of insects, spiders will stick around for an easy meal. They also love:
✔️ Outdoor lights that attract bugs
✔️ Dark corners in garages, attics, and storage spaces
✔️ Pool cages and lanais, where flying insects gather
How We Handle Spider Control
At Infinite Pest Solutions, we take a comprehensive approach to spider control, focusing on both indoor and outdoor treatments to keep your home pest-free.
Spider Control – Florida’s #1 Pest Control for Spiders
Our standard General Pest Control service keeps spiders and their food sources out of your home by treating:
✅ Entry points (windows, doors, cracks)
✅ Baseboards and corners where spiders hide
✅ Outdoor perimeters to prevent new infestations
By eliminating ants, roaches, and other bugs, we remove the spiders’ food supply—forcing them to move elsewhere.
🕸️ Advanced Spider Service – The Pool Cage Treatment 🕸️
If your screened-in pool has become a spider web and egg haven, we have a specialized solution!
Our Advanced Spider Service includes:
✔️ Full pool cage treatment – We target the entire screened area, including beams, screens, and corners where webs form.
✔️ Egg sac removal – Stopping spiders before they hatch means fewer webs in the future.
