You may notice that spiders move in after a change in the weather, including when temperatures spike or a hurricane or other storm is imminent. If fruit flies and other insects that spiders eat are in or around your Southwest Ranches home, that attracts them as a food source. They can also be attracted to trash outdoors in loosely lidded or unlidded cans, people or pet food, even plants around the home.
They seek dark, isolated spaces, indoors and out. Some prefer areas with more moisture while others look for a drier space.
