The Dangers Of Brown Recluse Spiders On Your Property
If you detect a brown recluse spider in your North Texas home, it is important to have a realistic understanding of how dangerous these spiders are. While it is true that a recluse spider has venom that can cause spreading necrosis, this is rarely the case. Most bites are minor wounds with an ulcer at the center. While we recommend that you seek medical attention and have a physician monitor a brown recluse bite, you don't need to fear these spiders.
We're often asked, "Are brown recluse spiders deadly?" You should know that, even in cases where there is a severe reaction and a spread of necrosis, death is very rare. According to the American Association of Poison Control Centers, the last reported death attributed to a brown recluse spider was in 2004. These are pretty good odds if you ask us.
There is more good news. Recluse spiders are true to their name. They tend to be quite reclusive. If you stay away from them, they're more than likely to stay away from you. Problems don't usually start until these spiders have created a large population. Unfortunately, it is possible for this to happen. Some brown recluse spider infestations in the United States have been reported to have as many as 5,000 individual spiders.

What are the steps to take prior to receiving flea treatment?Please review our flea treatment information sheet found here.

I have a baby/toddler… is it safe to have treatment?While the products we use are toxic to insects, they pose almost no serious risk to people when used properly. However, it is always advisable to be careful when using chemicals around small children, including pesticides. If you have a small child, we recommend staying away from the treatment area while the service is being performed and then wait until the product has dried.
-
If your company puts out rodent poison at my house, will a rat die inside?Yes, this is a possibility. Ideally, we prefer to use traps on the inside and in the attic, and then place rodent poison in protected stations on the exterior (which could reduce the likelihood of having a rodent die inside). However, anytime a rodenticide is used, there is always a threat that a rat or mouse could die on the inside. If the dead rodent can be located and removed, this will fix the smell. Otherwise, we sell odor control products to help with unpleasant smells should this unfortunately occur.
