Signs you have them
- A tarantula crossing the driveway or patio at dusk
- Silk-lined burrow openings in the yard
Why it matters
Low. They're docile and bite rarely, but their hairs can irritate skin and eyes.
How we treat it
Most are passing through. If they're getting into the garage or house, we seal entry points and treat the perimeter.
Prevention
- Install door sweeps on garage side doors
- Leave them alone outdoors, where they eat other pests
