Just because you see one spider in your home doesn’t mean you have an infestation. You may not like seeing any spiders around, but they can sneak inside in a number of ways and the problem may stop with them. But there are some clues that can let you know if you have a spider infestation on your hands, such as:
Multiple webs throughout your home. Spiders build webs in order to catch their prey. If you find spider webs across windows, around light fixtures, in unused corners, behind doors, or in cabinets, you know you have spiders working around your home to catch food.
It is worth noting that cobwebs and spider webs are different. Cobwebs are actually just dust and fibers that cling together. Spider webs will likely have insects caught in the strands. Even an egg sac could be hanging from a spider web, waiting to introduce hundreds of new little spiders to your home.
Spiders around your home. Seeing spiders indicating that you have a spider infestation may seem like a no brainer. But it is still worth mentioning. Spiders often do not want to be seen and are usually hidden away until they catch an insect in their webs. If you see multiple spiders in a day, especially the same type of spider, you probably have even more spiders around that are staying hidden.
Other bugs. Spiders eat bugs that they catch in their webs. If you have a home full of different types of bugs, chances are that you will also soon develop a spider problem in your Bakerfield home.
By cleaning your home regularly, using white vinegar on your surfaces, and removing smelly trash from your home promptly can help make sure that you do not tempt spiders to come into your home.
