Real Creepy Halloween Creatures

They’re creepy, scary and spooky – They’re spiders, rats and bats – the original Halloween creatures! Just the thought of a spider building a web in the kitchen, a bat flying around in the attic, or rats nesting in the crawlspace is all you need to deem your home a “haunted Halloween house”. The fall is a prime season for pest infestations as insects and rodents seek shelter from cooler wet weather. First RATS – Rats are one of the most abhorrent pests (Musophobia -the fear of rats), primarily nocturnal they like to nest in attics, crawlspaces and behind ovens and fridges. Once inside, they can spread diseases by contaminating food and put homes at risk for electrical fires by gnawing through wires.  Next up BATS – Bats are also nocturnal mammals that hunt at night and roost in dark areas and carry rabies (fatal if left untreated). Bats are popularly associated with creepiness as they symbolize all that is dark, Gothic, vampires and haunted houses. And finally SPIDERS – The sight of a spider crawling on the wall can frighten just about anyone, especially around Halloween and this can easily lead to arachnophobia, the reaction to spiders and spider webs. Be particularly aware of the brown recluse spider, the black widow spider and the hobo spider, as these types of spiders are known to inflict a painful bite.
