Professional Spider Removal Services for Homes in Swansea, IL

At American Termite, we have years of experience helping homeowners eliminate spiders and maintain a safer, more comfortable living environment.

While many spiders are harmless, some species found in the Metro East area can pose serious health risks.

Spiders to Watch Out For

The Black Widow Spider

Black widows are shiny black with a red marking underneath. They typically bite when threatened or protecting their eggs.

Possible symptoms of a bite include:

  • Fever
  • Sweating
  • Nausea

Immediate medical attention is recommended if bitten.

The Brown Recluse Spider

Brown recluse spiders are dark brown and often identified by a violin-shaped marking on their back.

Their bites can cause:

  • Severe pain
  • Fever
  • Open, ulcerating wounds

These bites require immediate medical attention.

Why You’re Seeing More Spiders

Increased spider activity is often a warning sign that other pests are present in your home. If spider activity increases, it usually means there’s a larger insect population inside your home. Since spiders rely on insects for food, eliminating the underlying pest problem is key to long-term spider control.

Our spider control services target both spiders and their food sources for long-term results.
