🕷️ Every year around the first week of June, our phones light up across Suffolk with the same call: "I'm suddenly seeing spiders everywhere." It isn't your imagination — spider activity inside Hampton Roads homes spikes sharply in early summer, and the pattern repeats like clockwork.

What's actually happening: last fall's egg sacs hatch as soil temperatures hold above 70°F, spiderlings finally grow large enough to notice, the insects they feed on (mosquitoes, gnats, flies, moths, ants) peak all at once, and coastal Virginia humidity makes garages, basements, and crawlspaces ideal harborage. The spiders were already on the property — they just got bigger and bolder.

Good news first: almost every spider you'll meet in a Suffolk home this season is harmless. Wolf spiders, house spiders, orb weavers, cellar spiders, yellow garden spiders, and jumping spiders are all beneficial outdoors and not a threat to people. The one Virginia species that genuinely warrants caution is the black widow — shiny black female with a red hourglass on the underside of the abdomen, usually in woodpiles, sheds, crawlspaces, or rarely-opened storage bins. Brown recluses are not native to coastal Virginia.

A few things you can do this week:
✅ Swap exterior bulbs for yellow "bug light" LEDs — they pull far fewer moths and gnats, which drops the orb weaver population on your porch
✅ Knock down webs and egg sacs every few days with a long brush or shop vacuum
✅ Seal gaps around doors, windows, dryer vents, and utility penetrations
✅ Pull mulch back a few inches from the foundation; trim shrubs at least 12 inches from siding
✅ Address the underlying pest problem — spiders are a symptom, and you can't out-spray the food supply

If the webs keep coming back in the same spots, you're finding egg sacs in the shed, or you spot a widow, that's our call. We just published the full guide with the species ID, the early-summer hot spots, and why store-bought sprays rarely fix a spider problem.

Only female mosquitoes feed on the blood of humans and animals, which provides the necessary proteins for egg development. Male mosquitoes feed on nectar and plant juices. Understanding mosquitoes’ biology, behavior, and impact is crucial for effective control! Our experts are here to help if you are having a mosquito problem!

🧳 Memorial Day weekend is the single biggest bed bug travel weekend of the year — and Newport News calls about hitchhiking infestations always spike the first two weeks of June.

Bed bugs cannot fly and cannot jump. They cover distance one way: by climbing into a suitcase, a folded jacket, a backpack, or the seam of a laptop case and riding home with you. One pregnant female is enough to start a full infestation by the Fourth of July (she can lay up to 500 eggs in her lifetime).

Before you unpack at the hotel this weekend:
✅ Drop your luggage in the bathtub — tile is the worst place for bed bugs to hide
✅ Pull back the sheets and inspect the mattress piping, seams, and tags with a flashlight
✅ Lift the mattress corner and check the box spring and bed frame joints
✅ Inspect the headboard — especially the back, the screw heads, and any cracks
✅ Look for rusty stains, pepper-like f***l spots, pale yellow shed skins, or live bugs

When you get home:
✅ Wash travel clothes on the hottest setting the fabric allows
✅ Dry on high heat for at least 30 minutes (heat is what kills bed bugs — not detergent)
✅ Vacuum the suitcase, inspect the seams, store it in the garage or a sealed bag

If you spot anything off in the bedroom in the weeks after the trip — lined-up bites, dark stains on the sheets, a sweet musty odor — call us. Store-bought sprays and foggers fail almost every time on bed bugs (the EPA and Penn State Extension both back this up), and waiting a month means the population doubles.

We just published the full guide — hotel inspection routine, what bed bugs look like at every life stage, the early warning signs at home, and why DIY treatment makes the problem worse.
