Spiders And Your Foundation

The heat of summer has now arrived here in Texas and with the heat, comes the spiders.

One of the easiest ways to minimize an encounter with a spider inside your home is to reduce clutter around the exterior of your home. Although we all know it is impractical to eliminate spiders completely, another way to try and avoid spiders inside your home is by taking good care of your foundation.

You might ask yourself, “What do spiders have to do with my foundation?” Spiders can enter into homes, garages and other structures through cracks, holes and other openings in your foundation. To prevent spiders from coming indoors, you should seal the openings in your foundation and repair any gaps around the doors and windows of your home. Eliminate places for the spiders to hide by keeping the exterior of your foundation free of trash, firewood, accumulative materials and yard clippings preventing places for spiders to retreat.

So, are you in need of foundation assurance? No problem.

Let the professionals here at Douglas Foundation Services examine any issues that you’re having, give you expert advice, provide any maintenance recommendations for your foundation, or simply give you peace of mind. Give us a call at 512-291-0709.
