More on spiders for Sutton homeowners
- The only spider in Ontario with genuinely medically significant venom is the northern black widow, which is rare and restricted to extreme southern Ontario, primarily the Niagara Peninsula and the Carolinian forest zone. The yellow sac spider is the species most likely to bite Ontario homeowners unprovoked and is responsible for the majority of reported spider bites in the province, though the bite is not medically dangerous. (Spiders in Your Home? Here's Why Spraying Baseboards Never Fixes It (An Ontario Exterminator Explains))
- Yellow outdoor bulbs attract fewer insects than white ones, which gives spiders less to feed on near the house. (Health Canada: spiders)
- No, and this is worth saying plainly because it changes how you should approach treatment. Despite being unattractive, centipedes do not pose any real danger to humans, and neither centipedes nor millipedes are able to carry or spread diseases to plants, pets, or humans.
