Did you know that yellow sac spiders account for more spider bites in the United States than any other species? This small, pale yellowish-green spider is not uncommon to find in homes, and they often bite people sitting or sleeping. Finding spider bites on your body can be a cause for alarm, and certainly leads many people to seek pest control if the biting continues. Gathering information about the spider is the first step in Marsing yellow sac spider control.
If you’ve been bitten by a spider, especially in your sleep, the yellow sac spider is likely the culprit. They’re active during the night, when they wander around searching for prey. If they’re living in your home, they may walk across sleeping bodies, biting as they go by.
A bite from a yellow sac spider may be painful, but its venom is generally harmless. The bite will be raised, red, and swollen, often with a white center. However, a physician should still be consulted if you find a bite. If you didn’t see the spider that bit you, it’s possible that a more dangerous spider caused the bite and your health could be at risk.
Removal
The best method for yellow sac spider removal is detecting their places of retreat. These spiders get their name from the silk sac they build to hide inside. Locating the sac means that you should be able to catch the spider quite easily. Simply remove the sac during the daytime, and the spider will likely be resting inside. The sacs are often built in dark, protected areas along baseboards, ceilings, or behind furniture.
If you only have one or two spiders, Marsing yellow sac spider control and removal should be fairly simple: locate the spider and place it outside at a safe distance from your home. However, for larger populations, or if you can’t find where the spiders are building their sacs, professional pest control will be necessary.
