Step1

Try using your vacuum hose attachment as a cobweb remover for textured surfaces like acoustic ceilings or textures walls. Sometimes a cobweb duster can smear these surfaces.

Spray water from the garden hose with a variable pressure nozzle to remove cobwebs from exterior surfaces like windows, stucco, vinyl siding and shrubbery.
Step4
Suck the cobwebs from deep corners in the garage by using an indoor-outdoor vacuum.

Tips & Warnings

  • Cobwebs extend 1-3 feet from the corner of a room. Be sure to remove hanging remnants of each cobweb so that they don't return as quickly.
  • Cobwebs are made by spiders. Guard against spider bites by avoiding contact with the webs.
