Information About Hobo Spider
Locale On Property
Hobo spiders prefer dark, damp hiding places and often make garages and basements their homes. In late summer and early fall, males of the species may wander into houses in search of a mate. Crevices in bricks and dark areas are ideal nesting spots for the pests.
Description
It can be difficult to identify a hobo spider simply by the way it looks. Long legs, a brown body, and a grayish abdomen with yellowish markings are typical of many types of spiders. The body length of a hobo spider is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch long with a leg span of about 1-2 inches.
Concerns
Hobo spiders are not aggressive; however, they will bite when pressed against the skin. The poison released by a hobo spider bite is not strong enough to cause life-threatening complications, but there may be pain, headache, extreme nausea, fatigue in some people after being bitten.
