The Mediterranean spider (Loxosceles rufescens) is usually found in warehouses, attics, under stones or piles of wood.
Public health
They are considered relatively harmless to humans.
Modes of Management
Prevention: The first measure is to limit the places they use as shelters. Loose stones, piles of bricks, wood and other materials must be removed.
Monitoring: Frequent inspections by experts help assess the situation in areas where such species are expected to be found.
Control: By residual spraying in the places where they frequent.
For scorpions, external spraying of the walls must be done up to a height of 60cm from the ground, paying particular attention to damage or cracks in the walls. Indoors, the spray is applied to the bottom of entrances (doors-windows), skirting boards and dark places where they can serve as shelters for spiders.
