October may be the season for spooky decorations, but the spiders around your home arenβt always part of the display. π·οΈπ
Spiders often settle in areas where they can find two things: shelter and a steady supply of insects.
That means seeing lots of spiders or webs around your property may also be a sign that other insects are nearby.
You can help make your home less inviting by:
πΈοΈ Removing webs around doors, windows, and patios
π‘ Reducing unnecessary outdoor lighting that attracts insects
πΏ Keeping vegetation trimmed away from the home
π¦ Reducing clutter in garages and storage areas
Controlling the pests spiders feed on can help reduce spider activity, too.
