Have Spiders Invaded Your Boat?
Boating is pure fun and freedom on the water. But spiders can ruin it fast. They love lakes, rivers, and docks. Spiders sneak onto your boat using ropes, railings, or covers. They spin messy webs that stick to everything. They also hide in corners or under seats. If you skip cleaning, the mess gets worse and harder to fix. Spiders can be a big nuisance in wet, wooded areas. You’ll see them in places like Minnesota, Wisconsin, Texas, Missouri’s Ozarks, and Idaho. Cellar spiders weave shaky webs. Dock spiders build big, strong ones near water. Orb-weavers make wheel-shaped webs that catch dirt. These spiders also lay egg sacs, hatching hundreds of tiny spiders. This problem isn’t just in those states—it happens all over the country.
