What can homeowners do to protect themselves? The best pest control strategy for deterring a spider infestation, is to reduce the pest population of other insects (food source); from inside the house or building.

1. Install snug-fitting screens, on all windows and doors. It is also recommended, that you install door sweeps; as well.

2. Seal or caulk cracks and crevices where spiders/insects could enter the house or building.

3. Install yellow/sodium vapor light bulbs outside, to attract fewer insects; for spiders to feed upon.

4. Tape the edges of cardboard boxes to prevent spider/insect entry.

5. Use plastic bags (sealed) to store loose items in the garage, basement and attic.

6. Remove old boxes, unused clothing, wood/rock piles, trash and other unwanted items.

7. Eliminate clutter in closets, basements, attics, garages, and outbuildings.
