What attracts spiders?
If you have discovered spiders in your home, it is usually because they are in search for one (or all) of three things:
- Shelter: Whether it’s to escape from extreme weather conditions, hide from predators, or in search of a safe place to breed, spiders can often find this protection in your home.
- Food: Spiders feed off of other pests (including flies, moths, cockroaches, and mosquitoes), which means they will enter a home when these sources of food are present. Unfortunately, this typically means that when you have a spider infestation, there is an infestation of another pest as well.
- Mates: Male spiders have a “Spidey Sense” for locating females, and will enter a home if they know there are females there to mate with.
How do spiders get inside of my home?
Spiders are crafty and small, giving them a million ways to get into your home. Whether it’s hitchhiking on firewood, used furniture, plants, and clothing, or sneaking through holes in windows and door screens, damaged roof shingles, chimneys, open doors, the gap between the door and the floor, vents without screens, or any other small openings, it doesn’t matter — spiders can find their way inside quite easily.How to Prevent a Spider Infestation in Cincinnati
