Spiders

Spiders in the home can be a persistent annoyance for homeowners. Common house spiders are especially drawn to small, warm, dark spaces like wall cracks, room corners, vents and attic edges.

5 ways to prevent spider webs at home

The main reason spiders create webs indoors is to trap prey like flies or mosquitoes as a food source. While most house spiders are harmless, their webs can be a nuisance.

Here’s how to keep spider webs out of your home with these 5 simple tips:

1. Vacuum hidden areas regularly especially under furniture and in corners.
2. Seal gaps and cracks around windows, walls, and doors.
3. Declutter and keep your home organized, reducing potential hiding spots.
4. Remove webs as soon as you spot them to discourage spider activity.
5. Limit outdoor lighting to avoid attracting insects that spiders prey on.
