Black Widow Spider

Black Widow Spider Extermination

The western black widow is shiny black, with a distinctive red hourglass-shaped mark on the underside of its stomach. It builds a small silk web close to the ground and it can be found in garages and sheds, or under rocks and fallen trees. It is not aggressive, so it will only bite to defend itself.

Several spider species can be found in the province of Alberta. Most are nonvenomous like the cobweb spiders, house spiders, wolf spiders and jumping spiders. But two types of spiders have been considered venomous, the hobo spider and the black widow spider, however, the hobo spider may not be as dangerous as believed some time ago.

If you believe you have been bitten by a black widow spider or a hobo spider, get medical help immediately, and try to positively identify the spider or catch it to confirm its type.

The poison of a hobo spider bite is not strong enough to cause life-threatening complications, however, it can cause pain and other symptoms like severe headache, nausea, weakness, and temporary vision impairment.

How does professional spider extermination work?

At Savvy Pest Control Ltd., we work in Alberta, eliminating spider pests that may appear in your home. To do this, we follow the following work plan:

Identification

The first step in controlling a spider infestation at home is to identify the species. Knowing which species we are dealing with is essential because each type of spider has different behavior and lives in different habitats.

Once this is done, it’s time to determine the causes that have attracted the spiders to the home. In this regard, these can be:

Other insects that, being their food source, may attract them.
The presence of hiding spots such as abundant vegetation.
The existence of cracks or fissures that may allow these insects to enter the house, making a spider extermination essential.

Treatment

When it comes to controlling a spider infestation in the home, there are several methods to make it possible. Knowing the causes that can lead to spider invasions in the home, the first step is to address the issues mentioned earlier.

As for the professional work performed by spider exterminators, it includes the following steps:

Sanitation

In some cases, simply applying cleaning products or natural essential oils can be enough to prevent and repel spiders. In addition to this, it is also advisable to vacuum all spider webs so as to eliminate all eggs and spiders that may be present in them.

Application of Pest Control Treatment

A highly effective action is to treat the exterior perimeter of homes, as this creates a barrier that prevents these insects from entering houses.

On some occasions, it is necessary to apply treatments in very specific areas of the home to control spider infestations. One of the most common areas where they are found is in crevices or gaps in walls or floors.

These are hard-to-reach places where appropriate products must be used, tailored to both the spider species to be exterminated and the size of the infestation.

Monitoring

Once the spider pest control work is completed, our technicians will assess the results to determine if the expected outcomes have been achieved.

They will also provide you with guidelines and recommendations to prevent future spider infestations in your home.
