Spiders

How to get rid of spiders

There are more than 35,000 species of spiders worldwide, a few thousand of which are found in the United States alone.

Spiders rarely bite people and in the United States only two groups – the Black Widow and Brown Recluse spider – are considered dangerous. The bite of most spiders has little to no effect on people, while a few others are of minor medical importance.

Spiders can be a particular nuisance in the home. They are attracted to warm, dark small spaces, like wall cracks, corners, air vents, and in the eaves of your home.

Other species prefer to stay closer to the outdoors, weaving their webs in your barn, back yard or near your outside lighting. Most spiders are a nuisance primarily because of their webbing and because many people have an inherent fear of spiders.

Spiders are often beneficial because they eat many types of insects, including those that are pests like ants, cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes and moths.

Common spiders found indoors

Some common species of spiders that can be found entering your home are:

  • Common House Spider – spider most often encountered indoors.
  • Cellar Spider – very long, thin legs; will rapidly shake its body on the web when disturbed.
  • Wolf Spiders – large, “hairy”, and often mistaken for tarantulas; leg span as much as 3 inches.
  • Sac Spiders – often pale yellow, grey, or green color; likely responsible for most indoor spider bites.

How to keep spiders away from your home

Spiders are most likely to enter the home in the fall due to their search for a warm place to spend the winter.

There are several ways that you can help to get rid of and prevent spider problems in your home:

  • Vacuum regularly
  • Remove noticeable webs
  • Fill in gaps in walls and under doors to deter entry
  • Remove sheltering sites like firewood piles and compost piles from near your home
  • Use lighting in a way that is less attractive to the insects that spiders feed on
  • Easy Bee’s Year Round Protection Plan can help you tackle the problem of spiders in your home in a safe, effective and professional way.
