Campbelltown and the wider Macarthur region are inside the natural range of the Sydney funnel-web spider — one of the most venomous spiders in the world — and the shale-sandstone soils around Menangle Park, Kentlyn, Wedderburn and Gilead are ideal funnel-web burrow habitat. Redback spiders (Latrodectus hasselti) colonise almost every colorbond fence, garage, retaining wall and pool-pump housing in the LGA.
Our spider treatments cover the full exterior of the home — eaves, weep-holes, window frames, fences, retaining walls, sub-floor vents, garages and sheds — using a synthetic-pyrethroid residual that stays active on treated surfaces for up to 6 months. All products are APVMA-registered as safe for children and pets once dry.

Species & facts
Ground-dwelling burrow spider — most active November–April, especially after summer rain in Kentlyn, Menangle and Wedderburn.

Builds messy webs in window frames, brickwork and eaves — a nuisance rather than a health risk.
A wandering hunter — feeds on black-house spiders and enters bedding and laundry piles.
Ground-hunter common on lawns and gardens through spring and summer across the Macarthur region.
Every Spider Control job we book across Campbelltown starts with the customer noticing one of these signs. If you see any of them, book an inspection — early treatment is always cheaper.
