Most spiders you come across in your home are harmless and are much more afraid of you then you are them. But there are a few types of venomous spiders that may send you to the emergency room if you are so unfortunate to receive a bite. Black Widows and Brown Recluses are the main spiders that deliver a nasty bite in Tulare County. But even if you are not worried about crossing paths with a Black Widow, having spiders in your home is not enjoyable. Having a spider control expert inspect and treat you home for spiders will give you the peace of mind that you won’t run into a spider, venomous or not, any time soon.
What attracts spiders
During a warm summer, spiders may come into your home looking for water. It is easy for a spider to find water in a bathtub, sink, or toilet. Other bugs also attract spiders into your home because they go where their food is. Spiders catch their prey in webs and then roll them up in strands of webbing, so they can suck out the bug’s juices.
Prevention
The best way to keep spiders from infesting your home is to stop them from coming inside in the first place. A few ways to keep spiders from wanting to live with you is to keep a tidy home by:
-
Reducing clutter
-
Wiping down your surfaces
-
Sweeping and vacuuming regularly
-
Taking out the garbage as soon as it is full
The reason why cleaning your home helps reduce the chances of spiders inhabiting your house is because it keeps other insects out of your home that spiders find to be quite tasty. If there is no spider food in your home, you will not have spiders.
Spiders also prefer to be secluded and a cluttered corner and packed garage or basement is the perfect place to hide.
