  • Oh I should add...I'm feeling much better after reading the info on this website. Thanks for the details you have provided. Much more reassured now. Why is the conception out there that red backs are SO EXTREMELY dangerous compared to other spiders we find in our homes?
    Is there any effective way to keep spiders completely out of the house?
    Apologies if this forum is not the right place for these questions.
    Thanks.
  • I am 99.9% sure I have encountered my first ever red back spider in our garage tonight. It's scaring the crap outta me. I dont get along well with spiders :(

    I also think I saw a teeny tiny baby one in the bathroom a few days ago but not exactly sure. If it was though, do I need to get the house checked out? The garage and bathroom are not exactly close to each other so I'm a bit freaked.
    I know...gotta calm down but damn all my hairs are on end!!!
