Regular dusting is particularly effective for eliminating which type of spider?

Regular dusting is particularly effective for eliminating cobweb spiders. These spiders tend to create webs in corners and hidden areas where dust can accumulate. By regularly dusting these areas, you can disrupt the webs and eliminate the spiders that rely on them for catching prey and shelter. Cobweb spiders are often found in homes and are known for their messy, irregular webs, making them more vulnerable to disturbances caused by cleaning.

In contrast, jumping spiders are active hunters that do not rely on webs for capture, while brown recluse spiders prefer dark and sheltered places and are not typically eliminated by dusting alone. Tarantulas are more robust and less affected by dusting methods, as they do not create webs and mainly reside in burrows or hidden environments. Thus, dusting is especially beneficial for managing cobweb spiders in residential settings.
