Are Wolf Spiders In Lathrop, CA Dangerous?

Despite their fear-inspiring names, wolf spiders are not actually dangerous. Although it is true that their bites can hurt and may cause some irritation and swelling, they by are not a major threat to your health. Wolf spiders are, however, a serious nuisance when they get inside our homes. They are sure to give you a spook if they catch you off guard when you are looking through storage areas.

One thing wolf spiders do indicate, however, is the presence of other pests in your home.

If you have wolf spiders in your home, it may be time to reach out to the professionals here at Insect IQ!

  • Make sure all of your piping and waterworks are flowing properly, and that they are leak free.
