More on spiders for Holland Landing homeowners
- Yellow outdoor bulbs attract fewer insects than white ones, which gives spiders less to feed on near the house. (Health Canada: spiders)
- Think of it as a simple chain: property conditions attract insects, insects become a food source, and spiders follow the food source. Once prey is available in a spot, a spider has a reason to stay there. (Why Spiders Are Inside Your Home (And What They're Actually Following))
- The spider may not be following a scent trail into your house, but it is following the food chain. Insects gather where conditions favour them, spiders find those insects, and spiders establish themselves wherever the hunting stays productive.
