Spiders

What are spiders?

Spiders have eight legs, two body segments and have no wings or antennae. While most spiders pose little or no danger to people, some species can deliver venomous bites that may cause medical issues.

Where are spiders found?

Not all spiders make webs, but most of those found inside will make cobwebs in low-traffic areas. Basements, crawl spaces, attic spaces, storage containers, cardboard boxes, window frames and window wells, outdoor light fixtures are common places for spider activity.

If you’re struggling with a spider infestation in your home or business, proactive steps can help manage the problem effectively. First, identify the types of them present, remembering that many are harmless and contribute to pest control. Maintain cleanliness by cleaning and removing cobwebs regularly, especially in corners and behind furniture. Seal entry points such as cracks and crevices to prevent them from entering your home or workspace. Reduce clutter to eliminate hiding spots, and consider using natural repellants like citrus or peppermint for anxiety. Regular vacuuming helps remove them, their webs, and egg sacs. Installing screens on windows and doors can also be an effective preventative measure. If infestations persist, or you have concerns about specific spider species, it is recommended to seek the expertise of a professional pest control service.
