Why Are There Spiders in My Home?
Spiders typically live outside, but when there is an easy way in, the heat of your house will attract them. They prefer areas that are dark and damp too, which is why they are often found in gutters and basements. Common entry points are cracks around doors or windows, or holes in screens. If you have a problem outside of your home, it’s best to call our state licensed On The Fly technicians to prevent them from coming inside.
Black widow spiders are often found in areas like wood piles. Always wear gloves and long sleeves if your are collecting wood to bring inside. If possible, visually inspect the pieces of wood before bringing them indoors. Black widows can hitch a ride, so be very careful when handling wood before a fire.
The brown recluse spider is one of the most poisonous spiders found in Maryland. They are barely larger than a penny and are dark brown. If you suspect that you or any of your family has been bitten by a brown recluse spider, please seek medical attention right away!
