Spider extermination costs $100 to $500 for most homeowners, with Angi and HomeAdvisor both publishing a $300 national average.1,2 Fixr publishes a $400 national average for a one-time visit and spray treatment in a 2,500-square-foot home, within a $300 to $500 range, from a guide updated in January 2025.3 Prices below are national averages*.
*National averages, not local quotes. Angi figures are from a 2026 guide updated October 2026, HomeAdvisor figures are from a 2025-data guide updated June 2026, and Fixr figures are from a guide updated January 2025. Your price depends on the infestation size, the treatment method, and how often a pro visits.
Safety note: the CDC says venomous spiders found in the United States include the black widow and the brown recluse – black widow venom is a neurotoxin, and brown recluse venom can destroy skin tissue and requires professional medical attention. Most bites happen when a spider is trapped or touched, so leave a suspected venomous spider to a professional rather than handling it.4

What the sources say
| Source | Headline figures | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Angi (updated Oct 2026) | $300 national average; most jobs $100 – $500 | Prices a $0.15 – $0.20 per-sq-ft starting rate, with a minimum fee for spot treatments |
| HomeAdvisor (2025 data, updated Jun 2026) | $300 average; same $100 – $500 normal range; small treatments as low as $50; severe infestations in large homes can exceed $1,200 | Corporate sibling of Angi – matching figures alone don’t establish independent corroboration |
| Fixr (updated Jan 2025) | $400 national average for a one-time visit and spray treatment in a 2,500 sq.ft. home; range $300 – $500; low-end $100 (a single visit with spider dust treatment in a 1,000 sq.ft. space); high-end $700 (fumigation in a 3,500 sq.ft. home or garage) | Average covers a defined job scope |
The sibling pair publishes identical headline figures, presented as published. Fixr’s figures are separately published and older (January 2025), with no shared sourcing stated, and its average covers a defined job scope, so they are presented separately.
Cost by extermination method
The publishers price overlapping methods at different figures, and Fixr’s method prices include the inspection, treatment, and monitoring. The rows are not compared directly.1,3
| Method | Cost | Source and scope |
|---|---|---|
| Spot spraying | $100 – $300 | Angi |
| Traps | $150 – $250 | Angi |
| Fumigation | $300 – $500+ | Angi |
| Spider dust | $100 – $250 | Fixr (2025), inspection included |
| Traps | $100 – $300 | Fixr (2025), inspection included |
| Spray | $200 – $500 | Fixr (2025), inspection included |
| Fumigation | $300 – $1,000 | Fixr (2025), inspection included |
Cost per square foot and by home size
Angi and HomeAdvisor publish a matching $0.15 – $0.20 per-square-foot rate, with HomeAdvisor pricing a whole 2,000 sq.ft. home at $300 – $400.1,2 Fixr publishes a $0.10 – $0.20 rate and the per-treatment table below; the two rates differ, so they are not compared directly.3
| Home size | Cost per treatment (Fixr, 2025) |
|---|---|
| 1,000 sq.ft. | $100 – $200 |
| 1,500 sq.ft. | $150 – $300 |
| 2,000 sq.ft. | $200 – $400 |
| 2,500 sq.ft. | $250 – $500 |
| 3,000 sq.ft. | $300 – $600 |
| 3,500 sq.ft. | $350 – $700 |
| 4,000 sq.ft. | $400 – $800 |
| 5,000 sq.ft. | $500 – $1,000 |
Cost by infestation size
All three publishers price by infestation size, with different presentations: Angi publishes ranges, HomeAdvisor publishes point averages, and Fixr publishes wider ranges. The figures differ, so the columns are not compared directly.1,2,3
| Infestation size | Angi | HomeAdvisor | Fixr (2025) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small | $100 – $250 | $175 | $100 – $300 |
| Medium | $190 – $350 | $270 | $150 – $400 |
| Large | $350 – $550 | $450 | $200 – $600 |
| Severe | $600+ | $600+ | $300 – $1,000 |
Angi and HomeAdvisor publish the same $600+ severe figure; matching figures alone don’t establish independent corroboration between the corporate siblings. Fixr defines small as 1 to 5 spiders, medium as up to 20, large as up to about 100, and severe as beyond that.
Cost by location
Fixr (2025) prices a one-time perimeter and interior pesticide treatment by where the spiders are.3
| Location | Cost per treatment (Fixr, 2025) |
|---|---|
| Deck | $75 – $250 |
| Patio | $75 – $250 |
| Carpet | $100 – $300 |
| Bathroom | $125 – $300 |
| Bedroom | $125 – $300 |
| Kitchen | $125 – $300 |
| Shed | $125 – $300 |
| Yard | $150 – $450 |
| Attic | $170 – $500 |
| Basement | $400 – $1,000 |
| Garage | $400 – $1,000 |
Angi notes hard-to-reach nesting spots cost more, without publishing per-location figures.1
Cost by treatment frequency
Angi and HomeAdvisor publish matching per-year frequency figures; the quarterly figure also matches Fixr’s, while the monthly figures differ and are not compared directly.1,2,3
| Frequency | Cost per year | Source |
|---|---|---|
| One-time | $100 – $300 | Angi / HomeAdvisor |
| Quarterly | $350 – $750 | Angi, HomeAdvisor, and Fixr (2025), matching figures |
| Monthly | $1,000 | Angi / HomeAdvisor |
| Monthly | $600 – $1,250 | Fixr (2025) |
The matching quarterly figure is separately published across different owners, and the pages state no shared sourcing. Fixr also prices preventative treatment at $100 – $500 and reactive treatment at $250 – $800, depending on property size and visit frequency.
