Almost everyone fears spiders to some extent, even if you're not particularly afraid of them. Finding them scuttling around your floor or up the wall can be extremely unsettling, and you'll likely be worried about if they are threatening or not. But, the truth is that most spiders in Las Vegas aren't as dangerous as might be feared.
Spiders aren't insects, but they are instead arachnids. As such, they have eight legs instead of six and more than one pair of eyes. They can vary in color and patterns depending on the specific species. Many spiders are tan, but some are brown, and others can be black or brightly colored.
One misconception about spiders is that they come indoors seeking shelter or scraps of food, but the truth is that spiders come around while hunting down their prey. Regardless of the time of year, they don't need to live indoors to survive, but they will follow their prey wherever it goes; this means that underlying pest problems are the biggest factor drawing spiders to your home.
The vast majority of spiders that get into Las Vegas homes aren't dangerous to people or pets. These spiders fall under the umbrella of "house" spiders and are almost always harmless.
All spiders have fangs and venom used to consume their prey, but most in the United States don't have venom potent enough to harm people or our pets. There are, however, two exceptions to this; the black widow and the brown recluse, both considered medically dangerous to people. Luckily, they are much rarer than other species in the area.
Because spiders come around searching for prey, the most effective way to prevent them is to address insect pests. On top of that, you can also follow tips to seal up the exterior of your house and make it more difficult for spiders and their prey to get inside.
Here are seven specific spider prevention measures that you can take:

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
