What are spiders?

Spiders are arachnids. They have eight legs, two body segments, and a head with mouthparts that can pierce the skin. They do not have antennae or wings like insects do; instead, they spin silk from their spinnerets at the end of their abdomen which is used to trap insects that they will use as food. Two of the most common spiders in Utah are the black widow and the wolf spider.

Black widows

Black widow spiders are a species of spider found all over the world. They get their name from the belief that the females eat the males after mating, but that rarely happens in real life. Black widow spiders are shiny black spiders that grow to about 1 ½ inches long. Their most distinctive feature is the red hourglass shape on their underside.

Wolf spider

Wolf spiders are very common in Utah and can be found living in tall grass, under rocks, or around homes. They are dark brown with white markings on their heads and abdomens. Wolf spiders can grow up to two inches long, making them one of the larger species of spider you may find in your home.
Wolf spiders in Utah generally aren’t aggressive and will only bite humans if they feel threatened. The bites from wolf spiders are generally not harmful but can be painful.

Store firewood a safe distance away from your house and keep it up off the ground.
