Ireland's leading pest control provider Rentokil has given advice to householders on how to deal with spiders entering their homes this winter.
With temperatures plummeting, spiders will be seeking shelter and food in households across the country. They will also begin breeding this time of year.
Many common spider species lay on average approximately 100 eggs at a time, contained in silken sacs which may be fixed to an indoor surface or hidden in a spider web. Rentokil has warned that the presence of these sacs in your home indicate that a larger spider infestation is on the horizon.
