Real, verified feedback from people we've helped — straight from Google.
Local technicians, fixed prices and a written report for every job in Concord West.
Our Inner West technicians cover Concord West and the rest of 2138 as a matter of course - it is only about 11.2 km west of the city. We run Concord West on a regular route, and same-day attendance is usually available.
Around Concord West we work the pockets near Concord Golf Club, Concord West station and Eliza Park most often, so the van is rarely far away when a job comes in.
Under Inner West, Burwood, Strathfield and Canada Bay, we cover Concord West and Liberty Grove, Mortlake and North Strathfield alike. The building stock is close-packed, so we look at what the property adjoins before deciding where product goes.
Most Concord West bookings come in as terraces and semis where the problem has come through a shared wall. Say which one applies when you call 1300 313 373 and the technician will have the right products on the van.
Our Concord West runs also take in Uhrs Point Reserve and the area near Rhodes Waterside Shopping Centre, so the whole postcode is served.
We confirm your slot the day before and arrive at a stated time. Liberty Grove and Mortlake sit on the same run, so earlier appointments in 2138 come up regularly.
Indoor sightings are usually a proofing issue rather than an infestation. Gaps under doors, unscreened vents and wall penetrations account for most of what we find inside.
They build a messy, tangled web rather than a neat one. If you are finding that under a Concord West outdoor setting, that is a redback.
Funnel-webs regularly end up in pools and survive hours underwater. Do not assume one floating in a Concord West pool is dead.
Two of these warrant real care. The rest are mostly a nuisance, but they are why webs reappear.
Between 2 and 4 cm, glossy black, and burrowing into cool sheltered ground beneath rocks, logs and buildings with a silk lining. Males are out looking for females in summer and autumn. Treat any bite as a medical emergency.
Black, with the red stripe on the female's back, and untidy webbing in dry sheltered positions - under outdoor seating, letterboxes, pot rims, pool fencing and sheds. Bites can be severely painful; seek medical advice.
Dark and solidly built, with lacy funnel-shaped webs in window frames, brick gaps and under eaves. Timid, but the webs attract dust and return quickly if nothing is done.
Slim and dark with a pale-tipped abdomen, this one hunts rather than webs. It comes indoors at night after other spiders, sometimes into bedding and clothing. Bites hurt, but a large study found no ulcers.
Big, flat and quick, found under bark, in wall cavities and behind curtains. Startling in a car or a bedroom, but shy. Because it hunts rather than webs, controlling the insects it eats reduces how many return.

| Spider | Risk | First aid | Get help |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sydney funnel-web | Venom that attacks the nervous system and can be life-threatening | Pressure immobilisation bandage, exactly as for a snake bite, and keep them still | Call 000 immediately |
| Mouse spider | Seldom bites, but serious funnel-web-like effects have occurred | Treat as a funnel-web bite - pressure immobilisation - for any big black spider | Call 000 immediately |
| Redback | Pain that can worsen considerably, plus sweating and malaise; antivenom is available | Do NOT apply a pressure bandage. Wash the bite and apply a cold pack in a cloth | 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 | Generally just local pain and swelling | Clean the bite and use 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.

Male funnel-webs are out of their burrows mostly in summer and autumn looking for females, the Australian Museum notes. That is the encounter season.
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 end up in pools and can live for many hours under the water. The skimmer net, always - never your hand.
The species ranges from the Central Coast south to the Georges River and west to about Baulkham Hills, favouring bushy sheltered suburbs.
Outside first, because that is where most spiders live and breed.
The inspection is a walk round with you, covering eaves, window frames, fences, rockeries, retaining walls, subfloor vents and garden edges.
Webs and egg sacs are brushed off the eaves, the pergola, the outdoor furniture and the garage, so nothing hatches into ground we have just treated.
Residual product covers external walls, eaves, window and door frames, weep holes and the spots spiders rest in.
Where funnel-webs are a risk, we treat sheltered ground beside the house: rockeries, retaining walls, sleepers and subfloor edges.
Spot treatments go into corners, skirting and wardrobes where they are needed, and accessible roof voids and subfloors are dusted.
The spiders that build a web and then sit on treated walls, eaves and frames - black house spiders, redbacks, the garage daddy long-legs.
The hunters - huntsmen, white-tails - cross fewer treated surfaces, so controlling what they feed on is the lever that works.
That a wandering male will never cross the yard on a humid night. What treatment does is reduce harbourage near the house; first aid knowledge and simple habits still matter.
The garden orb weavers stringing webs across paths are harmless. We clear webs near doors and walkways, though leaving some in the garden helps keep flying insects down.
Simple habits that matter most in funnel-web and redback country.
| Season | What spiders are doing | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Spring (Sept to Nov) | The hatch gets under way and webs spread across eaves and fences | Book treatment and clear webs ahead of the spiderlings |
| 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 wandering continues, especially after rain | Stay alert on humid nights; keep gardening gloves on |
| Winter (Jun to Aug) | Webs outside become scarce; huntsmen shelter indoors and in cars | A sensible time to pest-proof gaps before spring |
We treat the fence line and the first few metres of garden on a bush-backed Concord West block, because that is the crossing point.
The practical advice for a Concord West family is the dull kind that works: shoes shaken out, gloves for the garden, a pressure immobilisation bandage in the kit, and 000 and 13 11 26 saved in the phone.
The Inner West pattern is a build-up from September, heaviest through January and February, easing by April. Treating before the build-up is far more effective.
Which spiders we found, and what they actually mean for your family - you get both.
We treat the ground harbourage beside the house as well as the eaves.
Straight advice about what treatment achieves, wandering funnel-web males included.
General spider treatments come with 6 months of cover, and webs returning means we do too.

Get a Free QuoteSpider treatment starts from $89. Two things move it: how big the place is, and how far it has already spread. We work that out on the phone or on site and tell you the figure before anything starts in Concord West. Every general treatment carries a 6-month warranty.
Same-day attendance is usually available. Our Inner West technicians cover Concord West daily, and you get a confirmed arrival time when you book.
Most of this area is terrace, semi and converted block, and those share more than people realise - cavities, roof spaces, drainage. spiders use all of it.
Joined housing with ageing drainage. That combination decides where product goes far more than the floor plan does.
We do all of those. A good share of the Concord West jobs we run are tenanted or strata properties, so the written record comes as standard.
It is, provided the instructions are followed. We will tell you what to keep clear of and for how long before we leave. Let us know about children, pets or fish tanks when you book.
Usually not. Most spider control work is done with you there, and anything that needs the room vacated is for a short period we will tell you about beforehand.
Typically one to two hours on site. What extends it is size, access and how far the problem has gone, all of which are accounted for in the quote.
Every general treatment carries a 6-month warranty. A return visit inside that period does not cost you anything.
We cover the whole of Concord West, from the streets around Uhrs Point Reserve out to the suburb boundary and on into Liberty Grove.
