Spider Problems, Control and Safety

Spider Problems

There are over 35,000 species of spiders throughout the world, including 3,000 occurring in North America. 

The most common spider found indoors is the House or Domestic spider. This spider is a nuisance pest, mostly because of the webs it spins. It constructs webs in garages, corners, sheds, barns, etc.

Two species of spiders are of special importance and considered dangerous to humans, namely the widow and recluse spiders.



Black widows are easily recognized by the red hourglass shape found under the abdomen. Despite popular opinion, after mating female black widow spiders do not eat their mate. Black widows construct webs usually near ground level and in protected and undisturbed areas like boxes, wood piles and eaves. Black widows enter residences through transportation of boxes and wood to the interior of a structure. Black widows are dangerous to humans, especially the elderly and children, because of their venomous neurotoxin. A black widow spider bite can cause extreme pain.

Brown Recluse spiders are recognizable by the dark brown violin marking on the back. Their preferred habitat is outdoors in debris and wood piles. Brown recluse spiders do not instinctively want to bite humans, but will bite in defense. However, brown recluse spiders are not native to California and are not a threat in Southwest Riverside County. Brown recluse spiders live in the central Midwest.

  • Inspect and shake out shoes, especially when they have been stored in a garage
  • Minimize undisturbed spaces between storage boxes
  • Use caution when moving stored firewood, rubble piles and cleaning sheds and barns
