More About These Arthropods

Spiders are arthropods that belong to the Araneae order. Although some people like keeping spiders as pets, other people want to stay far away from them. They know that spiders bite and they don’t want to become a victim of spiders. It doesn’t help that spiders can inject venom into their victims. Although there are 40,000 species in the world, only a handful are found in Seattle. Spiders can build spider webs by releasing silk from their stomachs. Then, they’ll use the web to trap prey. Once a mosquito has landed in the web, it won’t be able to move and the spider will move in for the kill.

Nevertheless, it is important to understand that the prey depends on the species and size of the spider. Surprisingly, some spiders can kill and consume birds and lizards. You’ll want to stay far away from these spiders although they’re not native to our city. Spiders can live up to 25 years when they reside in a protected environment. Female spiders are larger than male spiders, but male spiders tend to enter homes more often. They do so when they’re searching for female spiders to mate with.

The Risk Of Living With Spiders

Most people understand that spiders can be very dangerous, but this isn’t always the case. The good news is that some spiders aren’t dangerous. Even if you’ve been bit by a spider, you may not experience any serious problems. It is estimated that nearly 99% of all spider bites are harmless. Therefore, you should worry too much. As long as you don’t experience an allergic reaction, you should be okay. Most of the spiders found in Seattle will not cause life-threatening bites. Still, all spider bites are going to be painful.

Why Are Spiders In My Home?

Why have spiders decided to enter your home? Ultimately, there are numerous reasons for spiders to enter your home. In some cases, they may be searching for food or shelter. However, a male spider may enter your dwelling while searching for a female mate. Getting rid of the spiders in your home is more important right now.

Should You Call An Exterminator To Eradicate Spider?

If you need to remove spiders from your home, you may need to start by targeting the spiders living outside of your home. If you can reduce the spider population outside, you may be able to stop the spiders from entering your home. With that being said, you need to remove the spider’s possible nesting spots. Get rid of rock piles, compost, and woodpiles. Once you’ve done this, the spiders will have to leave your property to find other places to build nests.
