Why Townsend homes get spiders

The sandy loam that surrounds Townsend is the starting point. It retains moisture at the foundation line, which is what spiders need to thrive. The low coastal plain adds harborage, and the humid subtropical climate keeps the activity going through most of the year. Homes on slab foundations, with crawl spaces, or near the Delaware Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, and tidal creeks see the heaviest pressure. The older neighborhoods and the newer subdivisions each bring their own pest profile.

Prevention tips for Townsend homeowners

• Remove webs and egg sacs as you see them.
• Seal gaps around windows and doors.
• Reduce clutter in the basement and the garage.
• Fix moisture issues in the crawl space.
• Keep the exterior lights off the entry areas.
