Spider Exterminator
You may be surprised to know that many kinds of spiders choose to live in and around social areas, such as your business, yard, and even your own bedroom. With over 45,000 species across the globe varying from dangerously venomous to surprisingly helpful, the popular homage “They’re more scared of you than you are of them” may not be sound advice. With that information in mind, it’s hard to tell when your friendly neighborhood spider is a problem that needs to be controlled by a professional. That lone bug may be a sign of an arachnid infestation. In fact, a study done in North Carolina showed that there are an average of 61 spiders in your house at any given time.
The Dangers Of A Spider Infestation
With over 30 different species responsible for human fatalities or hospitalization, it’s possible that your spider nuisance can lead to a serious health hazard for your family or your pets. Though anti-venom has drastically improved since the 1950’s causing human fatality by spider bites to be extremely rare (averaging 6.6 deaths a year), a bite from the notorious Black Widow or Brown Recluse can lead to serious medical complications, including a serious burning sensation, fever, ulcerating sores, and may require immediate medical attention. They can be a health risk and are indicative of another problem: they follow other insects. If you have come across an infestation, there is a good chance you have more insects inside your home than meets the eye.
Identifying Your Spider Species
If you’ve come to realize that you’re finding more spiders than you should in your home and want to stop the infestation in its tracks. First, At Ease Pest will identify the species that decided to call your home theirs. In-home species can range from the deathly dangerous Black Widow to the harmless Daddy Long Legs, and identifying your species is crucial for you. At Ease Pest are your spider experts. The Black Widow, for instance, loves to set up shop in woodpiles, cardboard boxes and typically spins their webs close to the ground, whereas other species love dark, musty, and hard to reach areas. With the help of At Ease Pest, identifying your infestations likely areas and patterns of movement makes it easier to control and contain.
How A Professional Exterminator Can Help
Once the species is identified, a game plan can be implemented to control your infestation. Our professionals will determine your infestation location, how they entered your dwelling, and how to remove them. We will spray the outside perimeter with a hand-selected residual insecticide that best suits your infestation needs to stop them from entering the home and spray along the baseboards and windowsills to kill those who already made their way in. Once the path into your home has been identified and blocked, the infestation inside has been removed, and your problem is effectively under control, you will have the peace of mind that a spider-free home brings. Contact the professionals at At Ease Pest today at the first sign of spiders or any other creepy-crawly you find in your home.
