Spiders are like those unwelcome house guests that never seem to leave. Not only are they unsettling, but some species can pose a serious health risk due to their venom.
We offer comprehensive and effective spider treatments that ensure your home stays pest free. Our quick and efficient service usually takes about 1.5 hours—less time than your average shopping trip!
🕷️ Our Spider Treatment Method
At First Defence Pest Control, we use a comprehensive and safe approach to eliminate spiders from your home or business. Our spider control service in Melbourne is tailored to target both visible spiders and hidden infestations. Here's how we do it:
1. Inspection and Identification
We begin with a thorough inspection of your property to identify the types of spiders present and locate their nesting areas. This includes checking roof voids, subfloors, garden areas, window frames, and other common spider hotspots.
2. Exterior Barrier Treatment
We apply a high-quality, long-lasting insecticide around the perimeter of your home, including walls, window sills, eaves, door frames, and garden beds. This creates a protective barrier to prevent spiders from entering your property.
3. Interior Spot Treatment
Inside your home, we target key spider-prone areas with a safe, low-toxicity treatment. This may include corners of rooms, ceiling spaces, skirting boards, and other secluded locations. All products used are safe for children and pets once dry.
4. Ongoing Prevention Tips
After treatment, we’ll provide expert advice on how to reduce spider activity around your property, including tips on sealing entry points and reducing outdoor clutter
🐜 Our Ant Treatment Method
Ants may seem like a minor nuisance, but infestations can quickly grow and become difficult to control. At First Defence Pest Control, we provide safe, effective, and targeted ant control solutions across Melbourne. Our proven process eliminates ants at the source and prevents them from returning.
1. Comprehensive Inspection
We begin with a detailed inspection to determine the type of ant and the extent of the infestation. This includes locating nests, identifying entry points, and assessing potential food sources around your property.
2. Tailored Treatment Plan
Once we understand the situation, we develop a customized treatment strategy based on the ant species involved. This ensures we target the entire colony — not just the ants you see.
3. Interior and Exterior Treatments
Interior: We apply safe, non-repellent gel baits and insecticide treatments to high-traffic ant areas such as kitchen edges, window sills, and skirting boards. Ants carry the bait back to their nest, wiping out the colony at its source.
Exterior: We treat entry points, foundations, garden beds, paving cracks, and other nesting areas using long-lasting barrier sprays and dusts.
4. Nest Elimination
For visible outdoor nests or known hotspots, we apply targeted treatments that eliminate the entire colony. Our methods are designed to stop ants from relocating or rebounding after treatment.
5. Ongoing Protection
We also provide you with practical prevention advice — such as sealing cracks, securing food, and managing moisture — to reduce the risk of future ant problems.
