Are Brown Recluse Spiders In Tuttle, OK Dangerous?

While there are a number of different spider species in the Tuttle area, the brown recluse is one of the only spiders you need to worry about. Fortunately, it’s very rare to come into contact with a brown recluse, but many people tend to misidentify other spiders for these venomous pests.
 
The brown recluse spider is very small (about the size of a quarter), and light brown in color. Their translucent legs and the dark brown violin shape on their backs are their more distinguishing features. They’ll spin messy webs low to the ground in your low-traffic outdoor spaces like under your porch or deck. If they do wind up in the house, they’ll stick to low traffic areas where they are most likely to find other insects, which is their favorite food.
 
Since they love to prey on insects, general pest prevention measures are the best way to limit your chances of a brown recluse infestation and the dangerous effects of its venomous bite. These methods include:

•  Cleaning regularly

• Controlling moisture issues

• Proper food and trash storage

• Lawn maintenance

• Decluttering low-traffic areas

While these measures can be effective, they are not guaranteed to prevent insects and spiders. Urbanex, however, can provide the professional treatments to get rid of pest and spider activity on your property for good, and we’re just one call away.

Guide To Avoiding Termite Damage In Tuttle, OK

Another dangerous misconception that Tuttle residents generally make is that termites won’t happen to them. However, termites are a much more common problem than many people think. These small, wood-eating pests are highly attracted to moistened wood that’s been exposed to moisture buildup. In order to decrease your odds of a termite infestation, managing moisture issues is a must. To do so, the following methods are recommended:

• Dehumidifiers in basements and crawl spaces

• Monitoring your pipes closely for leaks

• Gutters and downspouts to expel rainwater away from the home

• Proper lawn care and maintenance

Along with managing your moisture buildup, you’ll want to limit termite accessibility into your home. By storing firewood at least 20 feet away from the house, you can redirect a potential infestation away from the house. Plus, you’ll want to limit soil to wood contact around the outside of the house. Since termites will tunnel underground until they find a suitable source of food, a 12-18” buffer between your house and the soil in the yard can deter an infestation as well. Using gravel, pine straw, or rubber mulch to create this buffer will be most effective.
 
Now, make sure to understand that these methods simply limit your chances of an infestation. The only guaranteed method of avoiding a costly termite infestation is to call the pros at Urbanex. Whether it’s roaches, rats, termites, or another frustrating home-invader, make sure Urbanex is your first call.
