How to tell if you have spiders

- Egg sacs attached to websRound, tan or off-white sacs about the size of a pea mean a female spider is actively reproducing nearby.
- Spiders in stored itemsFinding spiders in boxes, shoes, or gloves that have sat undisturbed points to an active nesting spot.
- Web buildup near outdoor lightsPorch and garage lights attract flying insects, which in turn draws web-building spiders to the same fixtures.
