WELDON SPRING, Missouri – Exterminators are fumigating a Missouri home to eliminate the estimated 6,000 venomous brown recluse spiders that drove away the previous owners.
The 2,400-square-foot Weldon Spring home, which was foreclosed and is now owned by Fanny Mae, was covered by a tent this week by McCarthy Pest Control and filled with 200 pounds of sulfuryl fluoride gas to eliminate the arachnids.
