I had those suckers all over my Gila Bend house. I now have the eight guided wolf all over my Tennessee house.

I have one rule in regards to insects - the outside is yours but the inside is mine. Cross the threshold and you die. Im constantly killing spiders .....
Not to be too picky, but spiders are not insects .... although they do love eating them. Spiders are the good guys!

That is a black widow. I killed one in my dog kennel the other day.

Not in this case. Black Widows can kill you.

The last weekend of September was much warmer than last weekend and had scores of them hanging out on my screens and sides of my house looking for cracks to get in (Maryland). I was able to seal up most of the cracks. I didnt really notice them until then being my AC was on most of the summer, no real way in with the windows closed. I killed maybe 4 or 5 in the house during the summerproably let in when I opened the windows during cooler spells.

My kids think I am nuts (not unusual for those that know me) but I let the spiders in the basement alone...only kill them if they come upstairs....You alway know where in the beams they are living cause there is a pile of dead dried out bugs on the floor below them...

I spend most of my time at my mom’s house in a Pittsburgh, PA suburb, and don’t recall ever seeing them before this year. The last month r so, have killed a few a day, past few days, maybe a dozen a day- all in same place- basement bathroom.

I have one rule in regards to insects - the outside is yours but the inside is mine. Cross the threshold and you die. Im constantly killing spiders and those weird multi-legged creepy crawly things in my basement, especially now that its getting cooler outside. Central Texas.
Scorpions and Black Widow spiders.
Dish soap sprayed around the perimeter seems to do the trick without toxins or Orkin-level expense.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
