The Warning Signs of Spider Infestations

Early intervention can help our technicians mitigate any potential damage. Call our office if you see any of the following: 

• Sightings: Sometimes, the sign you get is the obvious one. While a single spider may not be cause for alarm, frequent encounters, especially with the same species, suggest that there are more hidden away. 
• Webbing: The presence of intricate webs in corners, windows, or unused areas is not just an eyesore but a clear indicator of spider activity. These webs can vary in size and shape, and are often found in less trafficked parts of the house or building. 
• Egg sacs: Finding spherical silk sacs that house spider eggs is a surefire sign of an infestation. These sacs can contain hundreds of eggs and are often tucked away in secluded spots. If you see these sacs, don’t try and remove them. Just call our office. 
• Increased insect presence: An uptick in insects, which serve as food for spiders, can attract them to your area. If you notice more flies, mosquitoes, or other small insects, it could be attracting spiders. 

What to Do When You See a Spider

The first step to take is to give us a call. In the brief interim period before we arrive, there are other prudent steps that property owners can take: 

• Identify the spider: If possible, try to identify the spider from a safe distance. This information can be useful for our team in determining the best course of action. However, don’t do anything that you’re uncomfortable with, or that you aren’t sure is safe. 
• Don’t disturb it: Avoid touching or disturbing the spider or its web. Disturbing a spider can lead to unpredictable behavior, including fleeing to more hidden areas or, in some cases, acting defensively. It's best to keep a safe distance and avoid direct interaction.
• Note the location: This information will help us understand the extent of the infestation and the problem areas. Detailed descriptions of the location and the spider’s behavior can provide valuable insights.
• Prevent entry: Seal cracks and crevices to prevent further entry while waiting for professional help. Spiders can enter through very small openings, so it's important to inspect and seal potential entry points around windows, doors, and foundations. 

By staying vigilant and following these guidelines, you can help minimize the impact of spiders in your home or business until a technician from M.A.D. Exterminators arrives to provide a thorough and effective solution.
