How can I tell if I have a jumping spider problem?
Unlike other types of spiders, these arachnids are active during the daytime hours so you may be able to observe them hunting. As their name suggests, jumping spiders are excellent jumpers and they also have swift reflexes; this may be helpful in distinguishing them from other spiders. While it’s unlikely for them to infest homes, they may inadvertently make their way indoors on people, plants, or on their own, and are likely to be found under furniture, in the folds of window treatments, and around doors and windows – in other words, likely places to find insects.
