Spiders
Spiders aren't insects. While some of these arachnids are venomous and require caution, few will actually hurt you. That said, spiders are extremely effective at capturing and controlling key pest populations. Some spiders capture their prey in webs, while others hunt. Minimise them around your house by reducing hunting places and clutter, wood storage and mulch. Remove webs and seal cracks and crevices. Contact PESTMAC to protect your home and family with professional spider pest control.
