Is there anything more skin crawling than walking into a room in your home or business and being shocked by a huge spider crawling up the wall or hanging on the ceiling? No wonder so many movies have been made with spiders as the bad guys. You can’t help but imagine them crawling over your face while you lie in bed or jumping onto your head as you walk past. Yuck…even we get creeped out by these thoughts!
There are multiple thousands of types of spiders in the world (approximately 35,000), and unfortunately Australia is home to many of them, including some of the deadliest like the Funnel Web Spider and Redback Spider, which thankfully we tend not to see too many of around our properties. Spiders can be split into two main categories. Spiders that spin webs and spiders that are ground dwelling. The web type spiders are usually not dangerous to humans. They spin their webs to catch their prey which they then eat. Ground dwelling spiders tend to hide in holes, or in rubbish or anywhere they can before they come out an capture their prey.
Spiders come in all sizes and colours and are easily identified by their 8 legs. Even though we humans may be intimidated by spiders, they actually can be useful as they eat many of the other types of insects that concern us. The spiders we tend to see the most of in and around Sydney are the Huntsman inside your property which can become really large and scary.
Most of the spiders we see at home or work are more of an annoying nuisance than a threat. There are many however that can cause reactions if you were to be bitten so it is best to keep your distance, especially for children and pets. A pest management professional can easily help with advice on how best to treat any spider problems you may have. Probably one of the most annoying things about spiders is the spider web. How many times do you walk out into the garden or a hallway and walk through an unseen, sticky spider web. No matter how many times you clear then, they just keep reappearing unless and until you treat the spiders causing the issue. Not all spider control treatments are the same. With so many types of spiders out there it’s important you get professional pest control service to find out what spider problem you have and then what the best spider control treatment is best to control them. |
