Those tiny black or brown spots on walls, floors, or windowsills? Those are spider poops. What looks like paint splatters or dirt could be a sign of trouble.
If they smudge when wiped and return, you’ve got spiders on your hands. Use enzyme cleaners to zap pheromones that lure in more spiders.
Some webs in corners are delicate, but spiders are moving in if you find thick clusters in basements, attics, or behind furniture. Pro tip: Dust and vacuum often to shake up their homes!
Silky, pearl-sized sacs in dark places indicate spider breeding. One sac may generate hundreds of offspring. Remove them using a vacuum (empty it outdoors immediately).
Spiders are nocturnal. If you see them often at night, they’re established. Prevention: Fix cracks, declutter, and add yellow outside lights to deter pests.
Spiders abandon drained victims near their webs. Spiders thrive in unexpected settings with dead flies, moths, and beetles.
Webs, droppings, and decomposing prey may give large infestations a mild, stale smell. If your house smells “off,” check hidden areas.
Spiders mature by molting. Translucent shell remains indicate maturation and multiplication within.
Pay attention to the warning indicators, notably spider feces. The sooner you take action, the simpler it will be to regain your house.
