Common Spider Species We Treat
Sydney is home to a diverse array of spider species, each with unique characteristics and varying levels of potential danger to humans. Here are some of the most common spiders found in the Sydney region:
Sydney Funnel-Web Spider
(Atrax robustus)
Large, robust spiders with a glossy, dark brown to black carapace and a body length ranging from 1.5 to 3.5 centimeters.
Prefers moist, cool environments such as under rocks, logs, and in burrows in the ground. Commonly found in forested and urban areas within a 100-kilometer radius of Sydney.
Notoriously aggressive when threatened. Males are more venomous than females and are known to wander during warm, humid nights, especially in the summer months, increasing the likelihood of human encounters.
Highly toxic; bites can be fatal if not treated promptly. However, since the development of an effective antivenom in 1981, no fatalities have been recorded.


Redback Spider
(Latrodectus hasselti)
Small to medium-sized spiders, with females measuring about 1 centimeter in body length. Females are black with a distinctive red or orange stripe on the upper side of the abdomen; males are smaller and lighter in color.
Commonly found in dry, sheltered locations such as sheds, garages, under rocks, and in outdoor furniture. They are widespread across Australia, including urban areas in Sydney.
Typically shy and non-aggressive, preferring to retreat when disturbed. They build messy, tangled webs close to the ground.
Bites can cause significant pain and systemic symptoms, including sweating, nausea, and muscle weakness. Antivenom is available, and fatalities are rare.
White-Tailed Spider
(Lampona cylindrata)
Medium-sized spiders, with a body length of 1 to 2 centimeters. They are dark gray or black with a distinctive white or cream-colored patch at the tip of the abdomen.
Often found indoors, especially during warmer months. They prefer hiding in bedding, clothing, and towels left on the floor, as well as under bark and rocks in gardens.
Nocturnal hunters that do not build webs; instead, they actively hunt other spiders, particularly black house spiders.
Bites can cause localized pain and swelling. Contrary to popular belief, there is no scientific evidence linking their bites to severe skin ulcers or necrotic lesions.


Huntsman Spider
(Family: Sparassidae)
Large, with a leg span of up to 15 centimeters. They are typically brown or gray with banded legs and a flattened body.
Commonly found in gardens, forests, and occasionally inside homes, often hiding behind curtains, furniture, or wall hangings.
Despite their intimidating size and speed, huntsman spiders are generally non-aggressive and pose little threat to humans. They are beneficial predators, feeding on insects and other small creatures.
Bites are rare and usually result in minor symptoms such as localized pain and swelling.
Black House Spider
(Badumna insignis)
Dark brown to black spiders with a body length of 1 to 1.5 centimeters. They have a velvety appearance and a robust body.
Often found in urban environments, constructing messy, funnel-shaped webs in window frames, eaves, sheds, and fences.
Shy and reclusive, they spend most of their time within their webs, retreating into the funnel when disturbed.
Bites can cause mild symptoms, including localized pain and swelling. Severe reactions are uncommon.


Garden Orb-Weaving Spider
(Eriophora transmarina)
Medium to large spiders, with a body length of 1.5 to 3 centimeters. They have a bulbous abdomen that can vary in color from reddish-brown to gray, often with a leaf-shaped pattern on the back.
Common in gardens and forests, where they build large, vertical orb-shaped webs between trees and shrubs.
Nocturnal; they construct their webs at dusk to capture flying insects and often consume the web at dawn. They are non-aggressive and will usually retreat when disturbed.
Bites are rare and generally harmless, causing only mild, localized symptoms if they occur.
How To Identify A Spider Infestation?
Spiders are masters of hiding, which can make infestations difficult to detect until they become severe. Here are some signs that it’s time to call a spider pest control Sydney expert:
- Frequent Spider Sightings: Seeing spiders regularly in different areas of your home or business indicates a larger issue.
- Increased Webs: Spotting spider webs in corners, ceilings, windows, or outdoor spaces suggests active spiders nearby.
- Spider Nests: Finding nests in garages, roof spaces, basements, or sheds signals breeding and potential population growth.
- Unexplained Bites: Experiencing irritation, redness, or swelling, especially across multiple household members, may point to spider activity.
