The Dangers Of Spiders In Your Home

From tarantulas to black widows, we've got a lot of spiders in Arizona that can freak you out. The good news is not many of them are dangerous. The bad news is, dangerous or not, keeping spiders out of your house is no easy task. 

While most spiders are not dangerous, we do have two types of spiders in Arizona that are. These are the black widow spider and the desert recluse spider. Thankfully, neither of these spiders is a mortal threat to adults. However, they can be a deadly threat to children and pets. Even in adults, they can cause a host of serious symptoms that often need medical intervention. 

Black widow spiders have a neurotoxic venom that can cause systemic symptoms ranging from nausea and vomiting to muscle spasms or even trouble breathing. Meanwhile, the desert recluse is a relative of the brown recluse, meaning it has hemotoxic venom that can cause necrosis around the bite site. Necrosis means the tissue around the bite will die and begin to decay, leading to infections and scarring, so it's important to be seen by a doctor if any kind of recluse spider bites you.

Black widows have a very distinct look and are usually easy to recognize. However, recluse spiders are pretty indistinguishable from many other common household spiders. The best way to protect yourself from these potentially dangerous spiders is to keep all spiders out of your home. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done. 

Understanding Spider Behavior: Spiders often enter homes seeking food or shelter. They typically find their way inside through small cracks and crevices or open windows and doors. Regular maintenance like sealing entry points and maintaining a clutter-free environment can significantly reduce the likelihood of a spider invasion. Additionally, maintaining clear and open spaces around your home helps deter spiders, as they prefer dark, undisturbed corners to build their webs.

OUR Spider CONTROL PROCESS

Here at Overson Pest Control, our spider control process consists of three steps.

  • Inspection
    Typically, an inspection is not necessary for spider infestations. You simply tell us where you see spiders, and we will come in and treat that area. However, if you suspect that you have an infestation of other insects that are drawing the spiders in, we can inspect for those to determine if they are, in fact, attracting spiders into your home. Our general pest control services include spiders and many of the most common prey that attracts them.
  • Treatment

    Typically, the first places we like to take care of when we begin treatment for spiders are the areas where they like to breed and nest. Spiders love to weave webs in areas with lots of light because this light attracts prey pests like moths, beetles, and flies.

    Many spider species also love to go under appliances, inside cabinets, and in other areas where their prey often lives. If you're having problems with hunting spiders, we will also treat these areas.

    Our treatment process involves de-webbing to get rid of cobwebs. Then, we use a combination of liquid and dust products to eliminate adults. We'll come back a month later to re-treat in order to ensure we get rid of all the eggs and baby spiders that may still be lingering in your home.

  • Follow Up
    In addition to the 30-day follow-up treatment that gets rid of eggs and spiderlings, we like to return to your home once every other month to ensure we keep spiders out. We offer unlimited free reservices, so we will come out as many times as it takes to eliminate your spider problem.

Spider Control & Removal From Overson Pest Control

Removing spiders once they're inside your home can be a huge hassle. Spiders that feed on other insects inside your home can easily breed there. Once this happens, you can wind up with thousands of little spiderlings crawling all over your house in a matter of weeks. Spiders lay egg sacs that contain anywhere from dozens to over a thousand individual offspring, so it's easy to see how once an infestation gets going, it can be impossible to stop. 

This is where we come in. Here at Overson Pest Control, we can help you get rid of spiders in your home and the infestations that are drawing them into your house. In reality, spiders only come indoors chasing their prey, which is your primary infestation. Spiders are almost always a secondary infestation. 

If you have a spider infestation, you might not just need to take care of the actual spiders; you'll likely also need to take care of whatever prey has drawn them indoors. This prey could be cockroaches, flies, silverfish, or any other bug that spiders like to eat. The good news is we can help you with both local spiders and their favorite food items. 

  • Preventive Solutions: At Overson Pest Control, our strategy includes thorough inspections to locate and eliminate spider entry points and habitats. We offer tailored treatments to keep spider populations under control, targeting both the spiders and the insects they prey upon. By combining pest management with environmental modifications, such as improving ventilation and installing door sweeps, we provide a comprehensive approach to reducing spider attractions around your home.
  • Sustainable & Safe Treatments: Our team employs environmentally friendly and safe pest control methods, ensuring the safety of your family and pets while effectively managing spider populations. We use state-of-the-art equipment and proven tactics to deliver lasting solutions that not only handle the current problem but also prevent future infestations.

  • How Do I Get Rid Of Spider Infestations?

We will not only eliminate your spider problem but can also determine if an underlying pest problem is causing your spider issues. For a pest-free home, contact Overson Pest Control.

  • How Do I Control Spiders In My House?

    Keeping spiders out of your Phoenix home requires you to keep other pests out of your house as well. Spiders usually come inside in search of food, so if they find a healthy insect population, they’ll stick around. By making sure you don’t have a pest problem, you can help keep spiders out of your house. If spiders are already present in your home, Overson Pest Control recommends our spider control services to get rid of the infestation.

  • How Much Does Spider Control Cost?

    The cost of the spider control services offered by Overson Pest Control can vary based on a couple of factors. While spider control can be a stand-alone service, we also include spider control in our general pest control services.

Local Weather & Its Impact on Spider Infestations in Phoenix

The unique climate of Phoenix, primarily characterized by its hot summers and mild winters, creates an environment where spiders can thrive year-round. High temperatures encourage indoor migration as spiders seek sheltered areas. Consequently, the steady rise in indoor spider sightings during peak summer months is a common issue for many homeowners in the area. Coupled with the winter’s milder climate, which fails to curb their activity significantly, it becomes essential for residents to proactively manage their environment to deter such infestations. This makes it crucial to rely on professional spider control in Phoenix.

One effective strategy involves routine inspections and maintenance throughout the year. For example, making sure outdoor lighting is positioned away from entrance points can reduce the congregation of insects, and by extension, the spiders that feed on them. Likewise, maintaining dryness in crawl spaces and basements by using dehumidifiers and promptly addressing leaks can create less inviting conditions for spiders. Employing these methods can significantly reduce the incidence of indoor spider problems despite the challenging climate in Phoenix.
