You’ll walk into your garage without checking corners first. Your kids will play in the pool cage without you scanning for webs. Your outdoor spaces become enjoyable again—no more avoiding areas where spiders might be lurking.
We don’t just kill the spiders you see—we eliminate the ones hiding in wall voids, destroy their egg sacs before hundreds hatch, and identify the cracks they use to get back inside. Most importantly, you’ll know which spiders are actually dangerous and which ones aren’t, so you can make informed decisions about your family’s safety.
When we’re done, you’ll have real peace of mind knowing the job was done right the first time by someone who actually answers their phone when you call.
Around The Clock Pest Service has been protecting Port Lonesome families since 2020. We’re not a corporate call center—you work directly with the owner, George, who’s been handling Florida’s spider problems for years and knows exactly what works in our local climate.
We understand Port Lonesome’s unique challenges. The humid conditions near Tampa Bay create perfect spider habitat year-round, especially in garages and outdoor living spaces that residents depend on. That’s why we focus on both immediate elimination and long-term prevention strategies that actually work in Florida’s climate.
Our state certification, BBB accreditation, and over 100 five-star reviews mean you’re working with proven professionals. We answer our phone 24/7, provide honest quotes over the phone, and never charge extra for weekend service because spider problems don’t wait for business hours.
First, we inspect your property thoroughly—inside corners, ceiling edges, closets, attics, basements, garages, and all outdoor structures. We identify spider species, locate egg sacs and webs, and find the specific conditions attracting them to your property.
Next, we eliminate current spider populations using targeted treatments that are completely safe around your family and pets. We physically remove webs and egg sacs, then apply residual treatments in key harborage areas to prevent new populations from establishing.
Finally, we identify entry points, provide exterior recommendations like vegetation management, and give you specific prevention strategies for your property. You’ll get a clear explanation of what we found, what we treated, and exactly what to expect moving forward—no confusing technical jargon.

Our spider control service includes expert identification and elimination of Florida’s dangerous species—black widows, brown recluses, and brown widows that are increasingly common in the Port Lonesome area. We also handle nuisance spiders like wolf spiders, house spiders, and the spiny orb weavers that create massive unsightly webs in pool cages and outdoor areas.
Port Lonesome’s location near Tampa Bay creates ideal spider conditions with high humidity and warm temperatures year-round. Peak spider activity runs October through January, but our climate means reproduction and web-building never completely stop. We address this reality by treating both interior and exterior areas, focusing heavily on garages, storage areas, and outdoor living spaces where spiders typically establish first.
Your service includes complete web removal from eaves and outdoor structures, specialized dusting of voids and hidden areas, professional identifying of cracks and entry points, and property-specific recommendations based on your home’s unique conditions and spider pressure. Our treatments provide months of residual protection.
Most large spiders in Port Lonesome are not dangerous, but proper identification is absolutely crucial for your family’s safety. Wolf spiders, which are common here and can be quite intimidating due to their size and speed, are not venomous to humans though they will bite if directly handled or trapped against skin.
However, Florida is home to several genuinely dangerous species. Black widows have distinctive red hourglass markings and neurotoxic venom that causes severe muscle cramps, pain, and potentially serious complications. Brown recluses, while less established in Florida, have violin-shaped markings and venom that causes tissue death around bite sites.
The real problem is that many harmless spiders look similar to dangerous ones, especially to untrained eyes. Professional identification ensures you know exactly what you’re dealing with and can take appropriate protective measures for your family without unnecessary panic or inadequate precautions.
Garages are prime spider real estate because they offer dark, undisturbed areas with easy access to outdoor prey and protection from weather. Start by identifying obvious entry points—cracks around doors, windows, and where your garage connects to the main house foundation.
Reduce available harborage by storing items in identifyed plastic containers rather than cardboard boxes, and keep all storage containers elevated off the floor. Install quality door sweeps and ensure your garage door identifys completely when closed. Regular cleaning and immediate web removal prevent spiders from establishing territories.
Most importantly, address the root attraction—spiders follow their food source. Professional exterior barrier treatments significantly reduce the flying insects and other prey that draw spiders to garage areas in the first place. This creates a comprehensive protection system that keeps them out long-term rather than just temporarily displacing them.
Professional spider de-webbing services go far beyond simply knocking down visible webs with a broom. We systematically remove webs from all exterior areas including eaves, soffits, outdoor light fixtures, pool cage structures, and patio areas where spiders commonly establish.
Critically, we locate and destroy egg sacs, which can contain hundreds of developing spiders. Simply removing webs without addressing egg sacs means you’ll face the same problem multiplied in just a few weeks when they hatch and begin building new webs.
Our service includes thorough interior web removal from corners, ceiling edges, and storage areas, plus application of residual treatments that prevent immediate web reconstruction. We also identify and professionally identify the specific entry points spiders use to access these web-building areas, providing lasting protection rather than temporary cosmetic cleanup.
Florida has five venomous spider species, but only two are regularly encountered in homes. Black widows are distinctly shiny black with a bright red hourglass marking on the underside of their abdomen. They build irregular, messy webs in quiet, undisturbed areas like garages, storage spaces, and outdoor furniture.
Brown recluses have a distinctive violin-shaped dark marking on their back and prefer extremely secluded areas like closets, attics, and inside storage boxes. However, brown recluses are not native to Florida and established populations are very rare here, despite frequent misidentification of other brown spiders.
The critical rule is never handle any spider you cannot positively identify as harmless. If you discover spiders with distinctive markings, find them in concerning numbers, or locate them in areas where family members might accidentally contact them, professional identification ensures your family’s safety and determines the most appropriate treatment approach.
Port Lonesome’s warm, humid climate creates perfect conditions for both spiders and their prey throughout the year. Spiders are primarily attracted to abundant food sources—flying insects drawn to exterior lighting, plus the wide variety of other bugs that thrive in Florida’s consistently favorable conditions.
Structural factors significantly contribute to spider problems. Gaps around doors and windows, foundation cracks, damaged window screens, and cluttered storage areas provide easy entry points and ideal harborage sites. Exterior lighting, especially near entry points, acts like a beacon attracting insects which inevitably attract hunting spiders.
Moisture issues compound the problem—poor drainage around foundations, leaky pipes, high humidity in garages and storage areas, and areas with standing water create perfect spider habitat. Effective treatment addresses both existing spider populations and these underlying environmental attractants to prevent rapid reinfestation.
We provide same-day response for spider control emergencies in Port Lonesome, often within just a few hours of your initial call. Unlike larger corporate companies that route calls through distant call centers, you speak directly with the owner who can immediately assess your specific situation and schedule appropriate service.
We understand that spider problems, especially when dangerous species are suspected or family members have been bitten, require urgent professional attention. Our genuine 24/7 availability means you can reach us evenings and weekends without any additional charges, and we provide honest, accurate quotes over the phone so you know exactly what to expect.
Most standard spider control treatments can be completed effectively in a single comprehensive visit, though severe infestations or very large properties may require strategic follow-up applications. We’ll give you a clear, realistic timeline during our initial phone conversation so you can plan accordingly and know exactly what to expect from start to finish.
