Wolf Spiders
Large, fast, hairy hunting spiders that don't build webs and often wander indoors in fall.
How to identify wolf spiders
Big, hairy, and brown-to-gray with darker markings, up to more than an inch including the legs. They don't spin snare webs — they hunt on the ground and move fast, which is what makes them alarming when one darts across a floor.
Why it matters
Wolf spiders are harmless to your home and actually eat other insects, but their size and speed make them one of the most unsettling spiders to find indoors. They wander in through gaps at ground level, especially as the weather cools in fall.
Seeing wolf spiders inside is usually a sign of two things: easy entry points along the foundation, and a food supply of other insects already indoors. Control both — seal the gaps and knock down the pest population they're feeding on — and the wolf spiders move on.
In Kentucky
A wolf spider indoors usually means other pests are indoors too. Summit Shield seals the Foundation Line gaps and reduces the insects they hunt.
