Around The Clock Pest Service has been protecting Holiday families for years with the kind of personal service you can only get from a family-run business. When you call, you’re talking directly to the owner—not some call center three states away.
We know Holiday’s spider problems because we live here too. We’ve seen how Florida’s year-round humidity creates perfect conditions for black widows in garages and wolf spiders in basements. We understand which species are actually dangerous and which ones are just scary-looking but harmless.
Our state-certified technicians respond within 24 hours, even on weekends, because spider problems don’t wait for business hours. With over 100 five-star Google reviews from your neighbors, we’ve built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time.
First, we inspect your entire property—inside and out. We identify spider species, locate webs and egg sacs, and find the entry points they’re using. This isn’t a quick walk-around; we check basements, attics, garages, and all those dark corners where spiders actually live.
Next comes the treatment phase. We remove all existing webs and egg sacs from eaves, corners, and fixtures. Then we apply targeted treatments to spider harborages and create a protective barrier around your home’s perimeter. We use professional-grade products that are safe for your family and pets but deadly effective against spiders.
Finally, we set up your ongoing protection plan. Because Florida spiders don’t take winter breaks, we return quarterly to maintain that protective barrier and catch any new activity before it becomes a problem. If spiders return between visits, so do we—at no extra charge.

Our spider control service covers everything you need to keep your Holiday home spider-free year-round. We don’t just spray and leave—we physically remove webs, treat egg sacs, and create multiple barriers to prevent re-infestation.
You get professional identification of dangerous species like black widows and brown widows that can seriously harm your family. We know the difference between a harmless house spider and a venomous widow, and we treat each situation accordingly. Our technicians are trained to spot the subtle differences that matter for your safety.
Holiday’s warm, humid climate means spiders stay active all year, unlike northern areas where cold weather provides natural breaks. We’ve designed our treatment program specifically for Florida conditions, using products that maintain effectiveness in high humidity and frequent rain. Your protection doesn’t fade when the weather changes.
Holiday is home to several venomous spider species that can pose real health risks to your family. The southern black widow is the most dangerous, with a potent neurotoxin that causes severe muscle cramps, abdominal pain, and difficulty breathing. You’ll recognize females by their shiny black bodies and distinctive red hourglass marking underneath.
Brown widow spiders are also present, though less aggressive than black widows. They’re tan to brown colored with an orange hourglass marking and distinctive spiky egg sacs that look like tiny sea mines. While their venom is potentially as toxic as black widows, they inject much less during a bite.
The red widow is actually native to central and southern Florida, living primarily in scrubland areas. Though encounters are rare since they prefer undisturbed natural environments, their bite can cause symptoms similar to black widow bites. Brown recluse spiders occasionally appear in Holiday, usually arriving in shipped goods, and their bites can cause serious tissue damage requiring immediate medical attention.
Professional spider control in Holiday typically ranges from $175 to $399 for initial treatment, depending on your home’s size and the severity of the infestation. Ongoing quarterly maintenance services average $75 to $120 per visit, which is actually more cost-effective than repeated one-time treatments.
Most Holiday homeowners find quarterly service provides the best value because Florida’s year-round spider season means you need consistent protection, not just seasonal treatments. Emergency or weekend calls may cost 25% to 50% more, but we include emergency response in our service agreements.
The investment makes sense when you consider the alternative costs. Spider bites can result in expensive medical bills, and some species can cause thousands in property damage if left unchecked. Plus, having professional documentation of regular pest control can actually increase your home’s value when it comes time to sell.
Absolutely. Professional web removal is a crucial part of effective spider control that most homeowners can’t do safely or thoroughly on their own. We physically remove all visible webs, egg sacs, and cocoons from eaves, corners, light fixtures, and screen enclosures using specialized tools and techniques.
Web removal isn’t just about appearance—it’s about breaking the spider’s reproductive cycle. Those egg sacs contain hundreds of future spiders, so removing them prevents massive population explosions. We also clean away the pheromone trails that attract other spiders to the same locations.
Our de-webbing process reaches areas you probably can’t safely access, like high eaves, deep corners of screen enclosures, and tight spaces around air conditioning units. We use professional equipment to ensure complete removal without damaging your home’s surfaces or landscaping. After we’re done, your outdoor spaces look clean and welcoming again.
In Florida’s year-round spider climate, quarterly service provides optimal protection for most Holiday homes. Unlike northern states where spiders become dormant in winter, Florida spiders stay active all year, continuously reproducing and establishing new territories around your property.
Quarterly treatments maintain a consistent protective barrier while catching new spider activity before it becomes a major problem. Monthly service might be necessary if you have severe infestations, live near wooded areas, or have family members with serious spider phobias or allergies.
Some companies offer annual or bi-annual service, but this rarely provides adequate protection in Florida’s climate. Spiders can establish significant populations in just a few months, and by the time you notice webs everywhere, you’re dealing with multiple generations. Consistent quarterly service prevents this cycle and costs less than dealing with major infestations.
Yes, our state-certified technicians are trained to accurately identify all spider species commonly found in Holiday and know which ones pose actual health risks versus those that are just frightening to encounter. This expertise is crucial because many harmless spiders are often mistaken for dangerous ones.
For example, wolf spiders and funnel weaver spiders are frequently confused with brown recluses, but they’re actually harmless and even beneficial for controlling other pests. The key differences include body hair, web patterns, and specific markings that require trained eyes to distinguish accurately.
Proper identification determines our treatment approach. We eliminate dangerous species like black widows and brown widows while often relocating beneficial spiders that help control mosquitoes, flies, and other nuisance insects. This targeted approach protects your family while maintaining natural pest control around your property. If we encounter species we cannot immediately identify, we capture specimens for expert analysis rather than making assumptions.
Don’t attempt to handle or remove any spider you suspect might be venomous. Keep children and pets away from the area and call us immediately. If possible, take a photo from a safe distance to help with identification, but never get close enough to risk a bite.
If someone does get bitten, clean the bite area with soap and water, apply a cool compress, and seek medical attention immediately if you experience severe pain, muscle cramps, difficulty breathing, or spreading redness. Try to safely capture or photograph the spider if possible, as this helps medical professionals provide appropriate treatment.
The most dangerous spiders in Holiday—black widows, brown widows, and brown recluses—prefer dark, undisturbed areas like garages, sheds, closets, and storage areas. Check these spaces carefully before reaching into boxes, behind stored items, or into dark corners. Our professional spider control creates protective barriers that keep these dangerous species away from areas where you and your family spend time.
