While scientists stress that panic isn’t necessary, they caution that bites can cause pain, swelling, and, in rare cases, infection or flu-like symptoms. Dr. Tom Elwood, one of the UK’s leading arachnologists, urges households to stay vigilant: seal cracks, clear webs, and use natural repellents like peppermint oil or vinegar. “False Widows aren’t hunting humans—they’re just looking for warmth and mates,” he said. Still, with sightings rising daily, Britons are heeding the advice: keep your windows shut and your eyes open.
