What we cover in Long Point, and how quickly we can get there.
Long Point is part of the Macarthur, 32.9 km or so south-west of the GPO, and 2564 is a postcode we know well. We cover Long Point on scheduled runs through the Macarthur, and we will give you a firm time rather than a window.
Most weeks we are somewhere between Towards Park and Simmos Beach in Long Point, and Lantana Park is close enough to be on the same run.
This is the Campbelltown and Camden area, and our runs here also take in Macquarie Fields, Minto Heights and Ingleburn. On a newer estate the houses are near-identical and tightly spaced, which means a problem in one tends to turn up in the ones either side.
The spider calls we take from Long Point are mostly estate houses with narrow side access and a shared fence line. If yours is one of them, mention it when you ring 1300 313 373 - it changes what the technician brings.
All of 2564 falls inside the area we service.
Bookings for 2564 are confirmed the day before with a set arrival time, not an all-day window. Jobs at Macquarie Fields and Minto Heights often share the same run, which is how earlier slots come up.
Sensor lights that run all evening keep a steady insect supply against the wall. Shorter timers or a warmer globe cuts the webs you get around a Long Point entryway.
Web density is a food-supply reading. Where it comes back fastest around a Long Point property tells us where the insects are, and that is usually a light left on overnight.
They build a messy, tangled web rather than a neat one. If you are finding that under a Long Point outdoor setting, that is a redback.
Two of these warrant real care. The rest are mostly a nuisance, but they are why webs reappear.
This is the glossy black one, 2 to 4 cm, in a silk-lined burrow in cool sheltered ground beneath rocks, logs or the house itself. Males wander summer and autumn. A bite is a medical emergency.
The black female with the red stripe makes a messy web in dry, sheltered spots: under garden chairs, inside letterboxes, beneath pot rims, along pool fences, in the shed. Bites can be severely painful - get 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.

| Spider | Risk | First aid | Get help |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sydney funnel-web | Venom that can kill, acting rapidly on the nervous system | Apply a pressure immobilisation bandage exactly as for snake bite; keep them still | Call 000 immediately |
| Mouse spider | Bites are rare, but the venom can act like funnel-web venom in some cases | Any bite from a large black spider gets funnel-web first aid: pressure immobilisation | 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 | Bites hurt and cause redness and itch; 130 confirmed bites were studied with no ulcers | Wash the bite and apply 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 records male funnel-webs leaving their burrows mainly through summer and autumn to find females - the period when encounters peak.
Humid nights after rain bring more wandering males. They shelter in shoes left outside, laundry on the floor, garages and gaps under doors.
A wandering male that falls into a pool can survive many hours submerged. Always remove it with the skimmer net, never by 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.
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 down from eaves, pergolas, outdoor furniture and garages, so new spiderlings do not hatch into the treated area.
External walls, eaves, window and door frames, weep holes and resting spots all take a residual product.
Funnel-web risk brings the ground into scope - the sheltered strip beside the house, rockeries, retaining walls, sleepers and subfloor edges.
Inside the house it is spot treatment where required - corners, skirting, wardrobes - plus dusting of the roof void and subfloor where accessible.
Spiders that build webs and settle on treated walls, eaves and frames - black house spiders, redbacks, and the daddy long-legs in the garage.
Huntsmen and white-tails hunt rather than web, so they touch less of the treatment. Controlling their prey is what reduces them over time.
That no wandering male funnel-web crosses the yard on a humid night. Harbourage near the house is reduced, but first aid knowledge and good habits remain important.
Harmless, the garden orb weavers that web across paths. Webs near doors and walkways are removed; some left in the garden 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 are hatching and webs multiply across eaves and fences | Treat and clear the webs before the spiderlings disperse |
| Summer (Dec to Feb) | Male funnel-webs are wandering and redbacks are busy around outdoor furniture | Check pools, shoes and outdoor areas, and keep door seals in good order |
| Autumn (Mar to May) | Funnel-web males continue to move about, especially following rain | Stay alert on humid nights; wear gloves for garden work |
| Winter (Jun to Aug) | Outdoor webs thin out; huntsmen take shelter indoors and in vehicles | Use the quiet period to proof gaps before spring |
Every address in 2564, from Lantana Park across to the Macquarie Fields boundary - houses, units, sheds, pools and the gardens around them.
The Macarthur pattern is a build-up from September, heaviest through January and February, easing by April. Treating before the build-up is far more effective.
Bushland blocks get the most funnel-web activity and the most wandering spiders after rain. That is where ground treatment matters most.
Which spiders we found, and what they actually mean for your family - you get both.
Ground harbourage beside the house, not just the eaves you can see.
Clear guidance on what treatment delivers, including with wandering funnel-web males.
General treatments are covered for 6 months - webs back within it means we return.
