Real, verified feedback from people we've helped — straight from Google.
What we cover in Bonnet Bay, and how quickly we can get there.
Bonnet Bay sits about 21.4 km south-west of the CBD in the Sutherland Shire, and postcode 2226 is one we are in most weeks. We run Bonnet Bay on a regular route, and same-day attendance is usually available.
If you are near Bilba Reserve, Ninth Avenue Reserve or Illawong Village Shopping Centre, that is ground we cover constantly - it is the busiest part of Bonnet Bay for us.
Bonnet Bay is in the Sutherland Shire area, and we cover Como, Jannali and Woronora on the same runs - handy if you own more than one property or your spider problem has come from next door. Bush edges keep re-supplying the problem, which is why we treat the boundary rather than only the interior.
The spider calls we take from Bonnet Bay are mostly houses backing onto a reserve, where the pressure is constant from outside. If yours is one of them, mention it when you ring 1300 313 373 - it changes what the technician brings.
The whole of 2226 is covered, Jannali station included.
The 2226 run is set the day before and you are given an arrival time. Where Como and Jannali fall on the same round, we can usually bring the visit forward.
Funnel-webs regularly end up in pools and survive hours underwater. Do not assume one floating in a Bonnet Bay pool is dead.
Children's play equipment and trampolines are worth checking specifically. They are exactly the sheltered, undisturbed structures redbacks favour.
Most spiders found indoors in Bonnet Bay homes came in by accident - under a door, through a vent, or on something carried in. They are not establishing; they are lost, which is why door seals do more than spraying skirting boards.
Two of these warrant real care. The rest are mostly a nuisance, but they are why webs reappear.
Glossy black, 2 to 4 cm, living in silk-lined burrows in cool, sheltered ground under rocks, logs and houses. Males wander in summer and autumn looking for females. A bite is a medical emergency.
Females are black with a red dorsal stripe, spinning untidy webs in dry sheltered places - beneath outdoor chairs, in letterboxes, under pot rims, on pool fences and in sheds. A bite can be severely painful and needs medical advice.
Dark and stocky, with lacy, funnel-shaped webs in window frames, brick gaps and eaves. It is timid, but its webs collect dust and return quickly without treatment.
A slim, dark roaming hunter with a pale tip on the abdomen. It wanders indoors at night hunting other spiders, sometimes into bedding and clothes. Bites are painful but a large study found no ulcers.
Large, flat and fast, living under bark, in wall cavities and behind curtains. Alarming in a car or bedroom, but shy. It hunts rather than webbing, so fewer huntsmen tend to return once the insects they eat are controlled.
From an Elite job - a huntsman located during an outside inspection. Eaves, window heads, meter boxes and garden edges are inspected before we treat.

| Spider | Risk | First aid | Get help |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sydney funnel-web | A nervous-system venom capable of killing | Bandage with pressure immobilisation as you would a snake bite, and keep the person still | Call 000 immediately |
| Mouse spider | Infrequent bites, some with serious effects resembling funnel-web envenomation | Any large black spider bite gets funnel-web first aid: pressure immobilisation | Call 000 immediately |
| Redback | Bites often become very painful, with sweating and feeling generally unwell; antivenom is available | Do NOT apply a pressure bandage. Wash the bite and apply a cloth-wrapped cold pack | Seek medical care if pain is severe or symptoms develop |
| White-tailed spider | Painful bite, redness and itch; no ulcers in a study of 130 confirmed bites | Wash the area and use a cold pack | See a doctor if symptoms worsen or persist |
| Black house spider, huntsman and others | Usually nothing beyond local pain and swelling | Wash the bite and apply a cold pack | See a doctor if you feel unwell or symptoms persist |
If you are not sure what bit you and it was a large black spider, assume funnel-web and call 000. A pest treatment reduces spider numbers; it cannot guarantee a funnel-web will never wander in.

The Australian Museum notes that male funnel-webs mostly leave the burrow across summer and autumn to search for females - which is when most encounters happen.
Rain followed by a humid night means more wandering males, and they shelter in outdoor shoes, laundry on the floor, garages and under-door gaps.
Wandering males fall into backyard pools and can survive for many hours underwater. Always use the skimmer net, never your hand.
You find the Sydney funnel-web between the Central Coast and the Georges River, west to roughly Baulkham Hills, mainly in bushy, sheltered suburbs.
Outside first, because that is where most spiders live and breed.
Together we walk the property, checking the eaves, window frames, fences, rockeries, retaining walls, subfloor vents and garden edges.
Webs and egg sacs are brushed down from eaves, pergolas, outdoor furniture and garages, so new spiderlings do not hatch into the treated area.
The outside gets a residual - walls, eaves, window and door frames, weep holes, and any resting place we have identified.
On properties where funnel-webs are a risk we treat the cool sheltered ground beside the house - rockeries, retaining walls, sleepers, subfloor edges.
Spot treatment of corners, skirting and wardrobes as required, with the roof void and subfloor dusted where we can reach them.
Spiders that build webs and settle on treated walls, eaves and frames - black house spiders, redbacks, and the daddy long-legs in the garage.
The hunting species - huntsmen, white-tails - cross fewer treated surfaces. Controlling what they eat is what lowers their numbers gradually.
That no wandering male funnel-web will ever cross the yard on a humid night. Treatment reduces harbourage near the house; first aid knowledge and sensible habits still matter.
Garden orb weavers do no harm even when a web crosses the path. Webs near doors and walkways come down; the others stay and control flying insects.
Simple habits that matter most in funnel-web and redback country.
| Season | What spiders are doing | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Spring (Sept to Nov) | Egg sacs open and web numbers climb on eaves and fences | Treat early and remove webs before the young scatter |
| Summer (Dec to Feb) | The funnel-web males start moving; redbacks active around outdoor furniture | Check pools, shoes and the outdoor areas, and keep the door seals maintained |
| Autumn (Mar to May) | Funnel-web males are still on the move, especially after wet weather | Stay alert on humid nights and keep gloves on in the garden |
| Winter (Jun to Aug) | Fewer webs outside, and huntsmen move indoors and into cars | The right time for pest-proofing gaps ahead of spring |
A Bonnet Bay property bordering reserve has continuous pressure from the bush. The treatment is a managed perimeter rather than a one-off, because the supply does not stop.
Anywhere in Bonnet Bay is the same price and the same response, whether it backs onto reserve or sits in the middle of the suburb.
Heavy rain pushes ground-dwelling spiders up and into garages, laundries and under-house areas around Bonnet Bay. That is when the calls spike.
We identify what is on the property and explain what it means for your family.
Ground harbourage beside the house, not just the eaves you can see.
Honest about the limits, particularly where wandering funnel-web males are concerned.

Where bushland adjoins the block, the question is not how spiders got in but how often. The perimeter is what decides that.
Mostly detached housing backing onto reserve. Proofing and the perimeter are what actually hold here.
