Pests We Treat Photo Album: Wolf Spiders in Morganville, NJ

While doing a home protection plan treatment in Morganville New Jersey, I stumbled upon this gigantic wolf spider on the homeowners fence post. A wolf spider can can grow as large as 35 mm but poses no physical threat to humans.  Now psychologically, that's a whole other story!  I immediately went to my truck to retrieve my trusty old duster. When I got back to where the wolf spider was, I searched until I found his nesting area.  I finally located the burrow and slightly dusted the web and spider nest. I also evenly and thoroughly sprayed the surrounding areas to reduce the wolf spiders food supply which is typically other insects.
