Brown Recluse
Once established within a structure, brown recluse are often difficult to control. Though hundreds of brown recluse may be present in a house, they may not be easily observed because of their reclusive, nocturnal habits. Even when exposed, brown recluse are fast runners and difficult to catch with a vacuum cleaner, fly swatter or shoe
Successful brown recluse control requires an integrated management plan that utilizes several control methods, including Professional Pest Management Services. Ace offers Brown Recluse Treatments. Call 615-876-7185 for a FREE inspection and quote.
One valuable method is to deny the spiders access to hiding places. Typical hiding places include garages, crawlspaces, attics, wall voids, cracks and voids around fireplaces, cabinets, furniture, boxes and stored goods. The importance of eliminating clutter from the structure cannot be overemphasized. Boxes and other items stored for long periods of time are ready harborages for brown recluse.
Cracks and crevices should be sealed with caulk, expandable foam, weather stripping, screen or other materials to prevent the spiders from entering them and gaining access to structural voids. Seal around fireplaces, vents, door and window frames, crawlspace and attic doors, and where cabinets, counters and baseboards meet walls, to permanently prevent brown recluse, and other pests as well, from harboring there.
Another invaluable method essential to victory in any war against the brown recluse spider is the use of monitoring boards. Also known as spider traps, they stop brown recluse “in their tracks” and help control other pests the spiders may use as food. Keep the traps out of the reach of pets and small children. Place them on the floor against walls, behind furniture and in other out-of-the-way locations where brown recluse are likely to travel. Ace Exterminating sells a variety of Spider Traps.
