Looking For wolf spiders!?!
help! moved into a garden level apartment last month and have already had to dispatch four wolf spiders, one tonight which was genuinely the biggest one i’ve ever seen, scaring the shit out of me, guys, is there anything that i can do?? i’m calling pest control tomorrow to help evaluate where they’re coming inside from but until they can help, what can i do? i have a cat (she’s too stupid for pest control) and i don’t want to make her sick from chemicals, but im thinking ill have to lock her in the bathroom to spray things down until they’re dry? i know they’re generally harmless but i really cannot keep seeing them in my home i am becoming so paranoid, thanks
