Recognizing the Common Spiders in San Marcos
Spiders thrive in our region. Here are the key types you might encounter:
Black Widows: Glossy black with a red hourglass marking. Their venom can cause severe pain.
Brown Recluse: Identified by a fiddle-shaped violin mark on its back. Their bites can cause tissue damage and require medical attention.
Wolf Spiders: Large, fast-moving, generally harmless hunters often found on the ground or in garages.
Common House Spiders: Small and shy, they weave webs in corners and eaves and are mostly harmless.
While most spiders help by controlling insects, venomous species like black widows and brown recluse pose genuine risks, especially when hiding in dark, undisturbed spots like attics, closets, or woodpiles.
How Paladin Pest Control Treats Your Spider Problem
Thorough Inspection: Technicians inspect attics, garages, eaves, sheds, and other dark, hidden areas to locate spider harborage and egg sacs.
Targeted Treatments: Residual insecticides and dust applications are applied precisely into cracks, crevices, and nests to kill spiders and eggs directly.
Breaking the Cycle: By treating for other insects (spiders’ food), Paladin removes their food supply, ending infestation cycles.
Seasonal Protection: A protective barrier is tailored for each season. In summer, the focus is on scorpions and spiders. In cooler months, the team fortifies against pests hidden indoors.
No-Contract, Guaranteed Coverage: With clear pricing and a bug-free guarantee, Paladin will come back if the bugs return to your home.
Do-It-Yourself Spider Tips
While professional treatment offers the most reliable protection, here are smart DIY steps to help control spider populations:
Keep it Tidy
Clear clutter, woodpiles, and undisturbed areas where spiders might nest.
Seal Entry Points
Fill gaps under doors, windows, and utility penetrations with caulk or weather stripping.
Regular Web Removal
Knock down webs and egg sacs monthly, especially in corners, eaves, and around light fixtures.
Outdoor Lighting Strategy
Use yellow sodium bulbs or motion sensors to reduce the insects that attract spiders.
Natural Repellents
Essential oils like peppermint, citrus, or vinegar diluted with water can discourage spiders. Spray along baseboards and eaves weekly.
Sticky Traps
Place traps where you see activity to capture wandering spiders, especially around baseboards or closets.
Even with the best home practices, spiders often hide in unreachable spots. Combining these steps with professional services ensures better, longer-lasting control.
