Spiders look scarier than they actually are, most of them are harmless to humans. In fact, spiders are nature’s natural pest control because they feast on other small insects. However, there are two species of spiders in particular that are dangerous to people, and if bitten, can be life threatening.

Black widows and brown recluse spiders are poisonous spiders that are prevalent in Tennessee. These spiders often live in dark spaces such as under porches, inside closets, or under furniture that is not moved regularly for cleaning. Brown recluse spiders are known for the violin or fiddle marking on their backs. Black widows are entirely black except for a red hourglass shape on their abdomen.

Mosquitos are often a bothersome pest but only pose harm to people if they are disease carrying. Recently, West Nile and Zika Virus, diseases that are carried and transferred by mosquitos, have emerged in the United States. AAA Termite and Pest offers solutions to your mosquito problems.

Rats are disease carriers by nature. Although rats typically do not bite humans, unless provoked, you certainly do not want these furry pests inside your home. Since they carry diseases, they can be particularly harmful to humans, especially if they bite.
