As others have suggested, spray the perimeter of your home with a professional spray designed to kill spiders. The cost is around $22. Much cheaper than selling your home for a loss.

We're also in Dabney, back up to preserve, use Dean's and have no bug issues. In TX, we used Home Defense around the house for spiders, etc., scorpions can drink it without issue it appeared ;-). In our TX house we used the box glue traps behind doors, in corners behind furniture, etc. They catch everything and bugs frequently run the walls, which means they'll transit the corners and hit the glue traps.

To add to it, also spray around all external light fixtures. I also use Bifen from domyown(dot)com here: Bifen IT | Bifenthrin 7.9% Insecticide | Fast, Free Shipping These are all commercial level treatments. They are what you pay a lot of money for the hired guys to spray. They have a residual property - they keep acting long after sprayed. Also they are effective against a lot of other bugs. |

Get rid of the Pine straw, do NOT put stones down, put cypress mulch down a few inches thick with weed barrier underneath it. lots of cretters do no like the cypress mulch. do NOT use a 'main line' provider like Massey or Deans. Find a mom and pop or better. I'm using Green smith and they have been great. Also go around outside and spray your window inside edge (where it meets the stucco) with WD40.

Spiders
Put glue traps down and some under dressers that you can access. This should show where they come from and document how many. Call the warranty department maybe they can do something. I have had great luck with them. They can contact the builder and he can come out and meet with you.

We use Tempo SC. We discovered it in Minnesota. It is safe to use indoors. My husband sprays the inside and outside perimeter of our homes. He sprays around the dock and our boat on the Mississippi. No spiders - ever.
