Pests in a home or business can be a real problem. For instance, a roach infestation needs to be dealt with quickly so these vermin do not ruin food or contaminate the surfaces that people use for cooking and eating. However, some of the more dangerous kinds of pests that people can encounter are spiders and one reason for this is that certain spiders have a poisonous bite. The solution to this issue is spider control in North West by a reliable, professional exterminator. Thankfully, there are only a few spiders in the North West area that are poisonous such as the brown recluse and the yellow sac.
Identifying these pests isn’t always easy because some spiders have a similar appearance. In fact, the only way to know for certain is to either be an expert in spiders or to contact a specialist in spider control in North West. Consider the brown recluse. This spider resembles a couple of other arachnids, but they can be identified by a specific marking. The brown recluse has a violin shaped, dark colored marking on its cephalothorax (where the legs are attached) and the neck of the violin shape points at the abdomen. However, this can confuse many people when they try to identify the spider.
A more reliable method of identification is the eye pattern, which is six pairs that are separated by a small space instead of the typical eight pairs. The yellow sac spider is a small arachnid with both males and females averaging about one quarter of an inch in length. Its color ranges from a light beige to yellow and they often have a slight greenish hue. These arachnids are not generally aggressive, but they will bite if threatened.
Because they are nighttime feeders, it is possible that they could come into contact with people that are sleeping. However, yellow sac spiders tend to live outdoors and are often found in leaf litter or other types of lawn debris, especially when they are molting. Yellow sac spiders are not extremely dangerous to humans, but their bite can be painful and may cause allergic reactions in some people.
