About Black Widow Spiders: Do Females Kill and Eat Their Mates?


Fact: There are a few different species of widow spiders around the world, and some of them do kill their mates, but the black widow you’re likely to see in and around Florida isn’t usually cannibalistic. It does happen, but much of the research on this issue took place in a lab setting, not out in the wild, which may have led to some of the cannibal rumors floating around out these spiders. Most male black widow spiders actually survive to mate multiple times, which means you do not want them around your home or yard! Call Slug-A-Bug today at 321-259-7844 to schedule a free consultation. http://bit.ly/2DICNgw

Get Rid of Fire Ants with These Helpful Pest Control Tips


Nearly every Florida homeowner will have to deal with fire ants at some point in time. Get the tips you need to fight them in your yard!

Even if you do what you can to prevent fire ants, you may still end up infested. Fire ant mounds reach well underground, and that means if your neighbor has them, you may still end up dealing with them on your property. Fortunately, there are plenty of good treatment methods, but don’t be tempted to grab an off-the-shelf solution at the hardware store. They’re only designed to treat the creatures you see, not the queen and thousands of other workers teeming under the soil. Off-the-shelf products mean introducing chemicals to your yard that may end up doing more harm than good. A better idea? Give us a call. We have a number of fire ant treatment options that will not only help you keep these creatures out of your yard now but well into the future too. Give us a call at 321-259-7844 to learn more about how we can help.
