McFarland
Spider Control

Here in McFarland, we love our historical sites. Given how old some of the buildings are in our area you may expect to see spiderwebs in an assortment of areas. Possibly even strolling through the downtown district near the McFarland Historical Society. What most interests me is how little the age of a structure has to do with the collection of webs. A trained eye gets clues as to who has implemented McFarland Spider control and who needs to get it going.

Spiders typically prey on some of those pesky insects that we see around our homes like ants for instance. Larger spiders for instance can even pray on smaller vertebrates like our avian friends or amphibians. They play a huge part in our ecosystem taking care of some of the less desirable insects we deal with.

When wondering whether we want to leave the spiders to eat, or implement McFarland spider control, we have to ask questions regarding:

• Location
• Interference with utility
• Aesthetics
• Mental well being

Spiders are great in some situations, but they are on the pest list for a reason. Weighing their benefit against the cost will determine which ones need to be controlled.

It is interesting to note that spiders do not chew their food. They inject venom into their captured prey to liquefy their innards and drink them out.

This is a tough question because the spider family is very large. Garden Spiders are around plants outside of your home or business. Orb weaver spiders like to cast their large wagon-wheel webs in corners of eves and awnings but also between trees and other plants. Some spiders like the Yellow Sac spider will nest somewhere quiet and out of the way. Wolf spiders on the other hand, are active hunters that will show up wherever they may roam. McFarland spider control should be customized to target the specific spiders in question.

We get calls about loads of species of spiders that can pop up from time to time. The most common ones in and around structures that get attention include:

• Common House Spider
• Orb-weaver Spider
• Jumping Spider
• Garden Spider
• Wolf Spider
• Cellar Spider
• Yellow Sac Spider
• Grass Spider
• Wood Louse Hunter

Spiders can be hard to identify because some species like the Orb-Weaver Spider can have several sub species. While McFarland spider control needs to start with identification, you don’t have to become the encyclopedia of invasive arachnids. You can reach out to our service or entomology team at Rove Pest Control for assistance.
