We can spot treat internal daddy long legs during the process, however, we do not spray all areas of the internal walls and floors for spiders as it is not practical or safe to do so. We do however spray the skirting boards for cockroaches which will pick up a few low-level daddy long legs.
Risk assessment, Be sure if you have any pets, they are removed from the areas of treatment prior to commencement or prepare to cover them over to avoid any exposure, (ask our technician for advice) especially hidden fish ponds in gardens that may not be easily identified.
The best way to avoid any unforeseen incident is please advise our professional technician of all pets at the property on arrival. Our technician will do a thorough risk assessment on arrival before starting any type of treatment to ensure we limit all potential risks.
