A False Widow Spider (Steatoda Nobilis)

A False Widow Spider (Steatoda nobilis)

There has been much media attention over recent years in relation to bites from False Widow spiders (Steatoda sp).

It would appear that these spiders are being encountered more and more frequently, however this may be due to greater awareness rather than the spiders becoming more abundant. There is no doubt that records show False Widows are increasing their range and are frequently encountered at work and around the home, therefore education on the spiders has never been so important.

For further advice and help on False Widow spider control in business’s or around the home Chris can provide talks & presentations on the spiders, providing the means to identify them, establish which area’s are of high risk of encounter with the spiders, as well as ways to prevent encounters as well as control.
