Why Spiders Are a Problem in Arizona Homes
Spiders are predators that feed on insects, which means they are often found where other pests are present. While this can be beneficial outdoors, it becomes a problem when they move inside. In Arizona, homes and businesses are often visited by a few different types of spiders, including the black widow and brown recluse , both of which can deliver venomous bites.
Spiders seek cool, dark areas like garages, closets, basements, under furniture, and in corners of ceilings. They can enter homes through small openings in doors, windows, or vents, especially when searching for food or shelter during the hotter months.
Types of Spiders Found in Arizona
Black Widow Spider
Recognizable by the red hourglass marking on its abdomen, the black widow prefers dark, undisturbed spaces such as garages and sheds. Its venom can cause muscle cramps, nausea, and severe pain. While bites are rarely fatal, medical attention is usually needed.

These spiders are light brown with a violin-shaped mark on their backs. They hide in cardboard boxes, clothing piles, and wall voids. Their bites can cause tissue damage and take a long time to heal.
