Venomous Spiders Found in Burlington, NJ; How to Prevent & Get Rid of Black Widow, Brown Recluse & Sac Spider Pests

Spiders have the ability to send chills up ones spine or make the hairs on the back of your neck stand straight up. While all spiders have some small amount of venom and possess the ability to bite, most spiders in New Jersey pose little to no risk to humans. Believe it or not, spiders are more afraid of humans than humans are afraid of spiders. But for some reason, spiders are a major fear of many people and can cause them to be anxious, nervous and unable to sleep if they think a spider is freely crawling around their home. Arachnophobia is a real fear that people suffer from, the fear of spiders, and there are many species of spiders crawling around New Jersey. It is important to become familiar with what spider species are dangerous to the human race and what spider species are harmless. Ross Environmental Solutions will ensure that your home is safely protected from all spiders and you can sleep peacefully without worrying about a spider crawling across your sheets.

Venomous Brown Recluse Spider Habitat & Bites

One of the more dangerous spiders in the area that you should become familiar with is the brown recluse spider. A bite from a brown recluse spider may go undetected until symptoms start to appear several hours later. A bite from a brown recluse spider can result in tissue damage, cell death, and open wounds that will never heal. A bite from a brown recluse spider poses a larger threat to young children and the elderly. People who suffer from weak immune systems are also at a greater risk of illness from the bite of a brown recluse spider. These spiders normally dwell in areas like woodpiles, barns and debris as well as underneath rocks and logs of wood. Indoors, the brown recluse will hide in dark sheltered areas, basements, behind furniture and inside of storage bins. The brown recluse spider does not spin a web to catch its prey, but is a ground hunter. If you suspect that these venomous spiders are inside of your home, contact Ross Environmental Solutions today.

Black Widow Spiders Identification & Bites

Another venomous spider found in New Jersey is the black widow spider. Similar to a brown recluse, many only feel a pin prick or do not feel the bite at all. The bite area typically begins to swell and cause symptoms such as excessive sweating, nausea, abdominal cramping, high blood pressure and spasmodic pain. Black widow spiders are a shiny black color and are recognized by the red hourglass shape on the underside of the female’s abdomen. A male may have red and white marks on its abdomen. This spider prefers dark, secluded locations, such as dimly lit corners, closets, basements, garages, closets and woodpiles. The black widow spider is not aggressive. Most bites occur when they feel threatened or are attacked.

Beware of the Sac Spider in your New Jersey Home

One of the most aggressive spiders in New Jersey that will enter into your home is the yellow sac spider. This species of sac spider is over aggressive and have a fierce bite that often results in tissue death, cramps, nausea and fever. A sac spider bite may feel similar to that of a bee sting and causes an itchy welt to appear. Sac spiders are nocturnal hunters and their bites typically occur when people have contact with the arachnid at night, many times this occurs when a person rolls over a sac spider in bed while sleeping. If you suspect a sac spider inside of your home, contact Ross Environmental today.
