In El Paso

Rocky desert habitat, the Franklin Mountains, xeriscape, block walls, garages, and storage areas give spiders many protected retreats around El Paso. Western black widows occur in Texas. NMSU records the Apache recluse in El Paso County, while the desert recluse is recorded in Doña Ana County as probably introduced; the two should not be assumed from appearance alone. Most spiders are beneficial predators, so service should focus on medically important species, indoor activity, webs, prey reduction, and exclusion.

Questions: Spiders

Which dangerous spiders live around El Paso?

Western black widows occur in Texas, and the Apache recluse is documented in El Paso County. The desert recluse has a Doña Ana County record listed as probably introduced. Spider identification from color or a violin-like mark alone is unreliable. Avoid handling suspected widows or recluses and seek medical advice for a concerning bite.

Why do spiders keep returning after webs are removed?

Removing a web does not remove every egg sac, hidden spider, entry point, or insect food source. Exterior lights, door gaps, stored boxes, rock beds, and quiet corners can keep the site attractive. Longer-term control combines web removal with prey reduction, targeted treatment, storage changes, and practical exclusion around the structure.

What should I do after a suspected spider bite?

Wash the area, avoid cutting or squeezing it, and contact a healthcare professional for advice. Seek urgent care for severe pain, muscle cramping, spreading redness, breathing trouble, fever, or other systemic symptoms. If it can be done without risk, save the spider in a sealed container or take a clear photo for identification.
