[QUOTE="NeedaCobra, post: 4164983, member: 9461"] Well, I have been doing pest control for a lil' while now, and I run into a lot of people who have weird assumptions or false information that they hear some cheesy pest control commerical tell them. So I figured I'd help out if anyone has any questions about pest control stuff (roaches in apartments, spiders, prevention, etc.) First of all, this [i]is[/i] a "brown recluse" spider, [b]a very dangerous spider[/B]. [IMG]http://www.brownrecluses.com/images/br7-small.jpg[/IMG] Somtimes they are the size of a [b]quarter[/b], or sometimes smaller or larger. I have caught one of these one time, but I wouldnt' advise trying to do such a thing. They are [b]very, very fast[/b], and [b]very aggressive[/b] The only way I caught it was using some dish soap I grabbed from inside the house and threw on it, therefore slowing it down. This happened while I was outside, removing a tarp from a woodpile, as brown recluse spiders like hanging around firewood. . . .and here is a map detailing where they are concentrated (though they are just about in [i]every[/i] state.) [IMG]http://www.brown-recluse.com/graphics/recluse-map.gif[/IMG] ([url]http://www.brown-recluse.com/spiderinfo.html[/url]) [B]These are not brown recluse spiders[/B] First, this is a "cellar spider" (usually in cars, garages, and usually travel in pairs. Often times when they are scared, they start swinging in circles, it looks rather funny.) [IMG]http://www.uky.edu/Ag/CritterFiles/casefile/spiders/cellar/cellar.jpg[/IMG] [url]http://www.uky.edu/Ag/CritterFiles/casefile/spiders/cellar/cellar.htm[/url] This is a [form of a] [b]Wolf Spider[/B] [IMG]http://www.sbs.utexas.edu/philjs/Stengl/images/Rabida.jpg[/IMG] I run across these on a day-to-day basis usually while at work, and they're usually around door ways, inside brick holes, around A/C units outside, et al. Anyone have any questions about, -roaches -spiders -termites (so many lies made up by companies to get more money these days!) etc.? I'm not a guru of this stuff or anything, but I deal with it on a day to day basis and have heard and seen all kinds of things related to pest control. [/QUOTE]
