Weather extremes — heat waves, freeze events, flooding — change the pest pressure on New Braunfels properties in ways that calendar-based treatment programs miss.
Inspection access in spaces homeowners rarely enter
Crawl spaces and basements in New Braunfels provide ideal black widow harborage with consistent humidity and undisturbed conditions. Inspections of these spaces find widows in 60%+ of older homes with accessible crawl spaces.
Most New Braunfels homeowners discover this only after damage is visible. Earlier inspection changes that calculus.
Pre-use inspection and shaking
Stored outdoor furniture in New Braunfels sheds and covered patios serves as black widow harborage during the off-season. Inspecting and shaking furniture before bringing it out of storage prevents bite incidents.
Local experience handling this issue across New Braunfels neighborhoods produces better outcomes than generic protocol application.
Population vs. movement during seasonal surges
Spider visibility in New Braunfels homes peaks in early fall when mature spiders are actively seeking mates and indoor environments. The fall surge isn't increased population — it's increased movement of the same population.

Quarterly rotation as spider control
Storage protocols that reduce New Braunfels garage spider populations: keep boxes off the floor on shelving 12+ inches above, use sealed plastic bins rather than cardboard, rotate stored contents quarterly so no item sits undisturbed for 6+ months.
Industry guidance for New Braunfels-area conditions weights this factor higher than national pest control standards typically do.
