Your Scream Is Worse Than Their Bite
The majority of spider species are venomous, but in most cases, a bite isn’t harmful to people. Medically speaking, only bites from Black Widows and Recluse Spiders are likely to require urgent medical attention, that is, unless you have an allergy to stinging insects. For the most part, spider bites are rare. Like most critters, they tend to be more afraid of us than we are of them.
It’s somewhat of a misnomer that spiders move into homes from outside during colder seasons. In most cases, house spiders don’t “move in.” The fact is, they’ve likely lived there during their entire life cycle. More than anything, spiders inside your home probably indicate the presence of insects and other small creatures that they like to prey on. Controlling their food source is often the key to managing their population. The less they have to eat, the less likely they are to stick around.

- Non-Chemical Control. Non-chemical spider control methods can include eliminating rocks, brush piles, stacked wood, unused flowerpots, and other clutter that can create spider-friendly habitats around the exterior of your home.
