How to tell if you have spiders
- Irregular tangled webs in cornersBlack widows and common house spiders build messy, non-symmetrical webs low in garages, sheds, and under eaves.
- 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.
- Shiny black spiders with red markingsA black widow sighting, especially near ground level in a garage or woodpile, should be treated as a real signal, not a one-off.
