Pests We Treat Photo Album: Black Window Intruding in Freehold, NJ
As I was treating this property in Freehold, NJ, I came across a black widow spider.
Deadly Pest by the Front Door
As I was treating the entrance vestibule of the building, I came upon a large Black Widow spider that was hanging out by one of the entry doors.
Black Widows
Black widow spiders are most recognized for the red hourglass shape on the underside of their abdomen. Their venom is reported to be 15 times stronger than that of a rattlesnake! Fortunately, they only bite humans when they are disturbed.
Exterminate the Black Widow
I applied a knockdown product directly to the black widow, which will rapidly eliminate it, and then performed a crack and crevice treatment around the entire exterior with a residual application that is specifically labeled to eliminate spiders.
