Using Pest Control As Preventative Maintenance

A few years ago, I experienced a personal breakthrough as a homeowner. I realized that I waited to call pest control until my bug problem had grown out of control. Instead of simply controlling pests, we would have to work through from square one each and every time we wanted to resolve the problem. However, my pest control guy gave me some advice that has stuck with me since that day. He explained that we should consider using pest control as preventative maintenance. Since then, I have pest control spray regularly every 3-6 months, whether there are bugs in my house or not. Tips like these can be found in the articles on my website.

What You Can Do To Help Control Brown Recluse Spiders In Your Home

10 January 2023
 Categories: , Blog

Brown recluse spiders are a type of spider that is fairly common in a number of states. They are very common household spiders, but not the type that you want in your home. These spiders can bite if they feel threatened and the venom from the bite can cause quite a bit of harm. The venom can eat away at the skin because it is toxic, and their bites could be deadly if you have enough venom. These spiders are like other spiders, in that they like to be in dark, dank areas. If you have spotted a brown recluse spider in your home, there are steps you should take in order to get rid of them.

Read on for some helpful brown recluse control information. 

Hire A Professional

You need to hire a professional exterminator to help you get rid of these pests. These spiders can be deadly, especially if you have enough of them biting you, and if you happen to have a major infestation, it could be a real problem for you and for your family. Hiring a professional is the best thing you can do to get rid of them. They have the right type of pesticide that can exterminate them and will be able to spot the areas more than likely inhabited by these pests.

Clear Out Clutter

Clear clutter out of your home and keep your home tidy. These spiders prefer dark and dank areas, but they could be nesting in the clutter piles you have throughout your home as well. Remove the clutter from your home and clear out piles that you no longer need or want. Old newspapers, books, piles of clothing or blankets, and anything piled up that cannot be stored properly should be removed from your home.

Clear The Perimeter Of Your Home

These spiders are more than likely coming in from the outside. Be sure to clear the perimeter of your home and remove brush, overgrown landscaping, or piles of rubbish that you may have close around your home. Remove wood piles, as spiders may be nesting in this type of area as well. If you have a wood pile, move it further away from your home to prevent them from coming indoors.

If you have spotted brown recluse spiders in your home, you need to get started right away exterminating them. Hire a professional exterminator to rid your home of these pests.
