What we cover in Tennyson Point, and how quickly we can get there.
Postcode 2111 covers Tennyson Point and the streets immediately around it. At about 9.4 km north-west of the CBD it falls in the Ryde & the Northern District, where we have vans out daily. Our technicians are through Tennyson Point most days, so same-day attendance is usually available.
If you are near Gladesville Shopping Centre, Peel Park or Monash Park, that is ground we cover constantly - it is the busiest part of Tennyson Point for us.
Gladesville, Putney and Breakfast Point are all on the same route as Tennyson Point. The building stock is close-packed, so we look at what the property adjoins before deciding where product goes.
Tennyson Point jobs tend to be older semis with a paved rear courtyard and a sub-floor that no longer dries out. Let us know which when you ring and we will plan the visit around it.
The rest of 2111 is covered too, including the pockets around Field of Mars Reserve and Parramatta River Regional Park.
When you book, we confirm the 2111 run the day before and give you an arrival time rather than a window. If we are already out at Gladesville or Putney that morning, we will usually offer you the earlier slot.
Huntsmen come inside for shelter when it gets hot or wet, not to nest. Seal the gaps under external doors on a Tennyson Point house and the number you find indoors drops noticeably.
Spiders go where the food is. A Tennyson Point house with webs returning within days of clearing them has a flying-insect population feeding them, and treating that is what keeps the webs away.
A white outdoor light draws flying insects from a long way off, and the spiders follow them to the wall it is mounted on. Switching a Tennyson Point entry light to a warm or yellow globe makes a visible difference within weeks.
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.
A slender dark roaming hunter, pale at the tip of the abdomen. Active indoors at night hunting other spiders, sometimes in bedding and clothes. Bites hurt; a large study found no ulceration.
A big flat spider that moves fast, living under bark, inside wall cavities and behind curtains. Frightening in a car or bedroom but genuinely shy. It is a hunter, not a web-builder, so controlling its prey reduces the numbers returning.

| 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 | A painful bite causing redness and itch; no ulcers in a study of 130 confirmed cases | Wash the area, then use a cold pack | See a doctor if symptoms worsen or persist |
| Black house spider, huntsman and others | Usually limited to pain and swelling at the site | Wash the area, then 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 abandon their burrows chiefly in summer and autumn to look for females, says the Australian Museum. That is the season people meet them.
After rain, on a humid night, more males are moving - and they shelter in outdoor shoes, floor laundry, garages and door gaps.
They fall into pools while wandering and survive hours underwater. Use the skimmer net and never reach in with your hand.
Its range runs from the Central Coast south as far as the Georges River, and west to about Baulkham Hills, concentrated in bushy sheltered suburbs.
Outside first, because that is where most spiders live and breed.
We go round the property with you, checking eaves and window frames, the fences, rockeries and retaining walls, the subfloor vents and every garden edge.
We take the webbing and egg sacs down from eaves, pergola, furniture and garage before treating, which stops a fresh hatch landing in the treatment.
Residual product is applied where spiders actually rest: the external walls, the eaves, window and door frames, and the weep holes.
Where the property carries funnel-web risk, we treat the cool sheltered ground against the house: rockeries, retaining walls, sleepers, 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 web and then sit on treated walls, eaves and frames - black house spiders, redbacks, the garage daddy long-legs.
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 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.
Orb weavers webbing across garden paths do no harm. Webs near doors and walkways come down, but some left in the garden help 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 hatching, and webs going up across eaves and fences | Clear the webs and treat before the spiderlings move out |
| Summer (Dec to Feb) | Funnel-web males begin wandering and redbacks are active outdoors | Pools and shoes checked, outdoor areas inspected, door seals kept in place |
| Autumn (Mar to May) | Funnel-webs continue to wander, notably after rainfall | Take care on humid nights; wear gloves for garden work |
| Winter (Jun to Aug) | Outdoor web activity falls and huntsmen come indoors and into cars | Good timing to seal gaps ahead of spring |
Funnel-webs regularly end up in pools and survive hours underwater. Do not assume one floating in a Tennyson Point pool is dead.
A Tennyson Point 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.
The Ryde & the Northern District pattern is a build-up from September, heaviest through January and February, easing by April. Treating before the build-up is far more effective.
We name the species we find and explain their significance for your household.
Beyond the eaves: the ground harbourage alongside the house is treated as well.
Straight advice about what treatment achieves, wandering funnel-web males included.
General treatments are covered for 6 months - webs back within it means we return.
