Frequently Asked Questions About Spiders
What are spiders?
​
Spiders are classified as arachnids and comprise one of the most diverse groups of species worldwide. Known for their eight legs, spiders also possess six to eight eyes and fangs, delivering varying amounts of venom depending on the species. In Goldsboro, NC, the most prevalent spiders include common house spiders, although certain species like the black widow may pose more significant concerns on your property.

​
Are spiders dangerous?
​
The majority of spiders you encounter are unlikely to pose significant harm, often preferring to avoid confrontation and hide rather than attack. Nevertheless, spider bites can cause pain and may trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. In our area, more dangerous spiders like the black widow are present, and their bites can lead to serious medical complications.
​
Furthermore, dealing with a widespread spider infestation on your property can evoke fear, anxiety, and stress until the issue is addressed by our professional team.
​
Why do I have a spider problem?
​
Spiders are typically opportunistic, and they tend to flock to properties where they have easy access to food, moisture, and secluded sheltering spaces. If your property has lots of pest prey for spiders to eat, cluttered areas inside and outside, and moisture issues, you are more likely to develop a spider infestation at some point.
​
Where will I find spiders?
​
Spiders tend to hide in dark and secluded locations. Prime spider hiding spots outdoors include around wood piles or piles of debris, underneath decks, and behind plant pots. Once they invade interior areas, you may find spiders at the backs of closets or cabinets, in garages, around basements, and in attics or other storage spaces.
