Did you know California is home to some of the most venomous spiders in North America?
Easily identified by the characteristic red hourglass shape on the underside of their abdomens
Typically brown and have a characteristic violin-shaped marking on their backs
Notorious for their potent venom, which can cause tissue damage and necrosis and even lead to skin ulcers
Not as venomous as black widows or brown recluse spiders, they still pack quite a punch
You can use a cup and paper to trap the spider and release it outside gently
You can also use a vacuum cleaner to remove the spider but empty the vacuum outside your home.
If you have a lot of spiders in your home, it may be a sign of an insect infestation, so it’s best to call a professional pest control company to take care of the problem
