False Widow infestation in conservatory - new roof?

Trary
Posts: 26 Forumite
We have just had confirmed false widows in our conservatory and can pay £120 to have it fumigated, but they advised they can't stop them coming back. My worry is they are all over the roof inside and out, and the corners.
Do we look at replacing the roof with something more substantial?
How do we prevent this happening again?

Same as for any other spiders really
Ensure all doors and windows are draught excluded
Vacuum regularly and remove cobwebs
Minimise the amount of clutter around the property0 -
[FONT="]They have been in the UK well over a hundred years no one has yet been recorded as dying from a false widow bite. You’ve more chance being killed by a bee don’t believe media hype? Spraying absolute waste of time if the conditions are right for them they will be all in surrounding areas and killing some in specific spot just allows others to move into it and further population of existing area?[/FONT]0
