Yellow Sac Spider Prevention Tips For Rock Island, IL Properties

Yellow sac spiders often become problematic for property owners in the fall when the weather cools and they begin to enter homes and other buildings looking for a safe space overwinter. These spiders are generally harmless, although they do have the potential to bite and leave behind a painful raised welt. However, no matter how harmless they may be, no Rock Island property owner wants a house full of these eight-legged creatures. To help prevent problems with these spiders on your property, our pest management professionals offer the following prevention tips:

• Inspect the exterior walls and foundation of your home, sealing any cracks and crevices found.

• Install or replace damaged door sweeps on all exterior doors.

• Remove piles of leaves and organic debris from your property.

• Store woodpiles at least 20 ft. from the exterior of your home.

• Inside, make sure to reduce clutter in storage areas like basements, closets, and crawlspaces.

• Implement a year-round home pest control program to reduce insects found living in and around your property. Insects are yellow sac spiders' main food source!

About Bat Protection Laws In Rock Island

Bats are an essential part of the Illinois ecosystem. They consume large amounts of insects, including mosquitoes, flies, and moths, which helps to control pest populations. Many species play a crucial role in pollinating flowers and distributing plant seeds, promoting plant diversity and growth, and preventing the spread of invasive species. And finally, bat droppings are a rich source of nitrogen and other nutrients that can fertilize the soil.

However, they can also cause significant issues by damaging the structure of your home and spreading dangerous illnesses. These include rabies which can be life-threatening if left untreated, and histoplasmosis, a fungal infection you can get from inhaling fungal spores found in bat droppings.

In Rock Island, the law protects bats, and we are not allowed to use traps or chemicals to remove them. However, there are many strategies you can use to get rid of bats, including one-way door systems and sealing their entry points. At Quik-Kill Pest Eliminators, instead of killing bats, we take the appropriate steps to return them to the wilderness and ensure they do not return. 

Even though bats are protected by law, you do not have to have to deal with them in your home. If you need bat exclusion services, Quik-Kill Pest Eliminators has the expertise required to safely get them out of your house.
