Masked Hunter

Found indoors in dark, undisturbed areas like basements, and outdoors under bark or leaf litter.

Carnivorous predator that feeds on various household arthropods including bed bugs, spiders, and carpet beetles.

Nymphs secrete a sticky substance that collects dust and debris, completely camouflaging their bodies. They are nocturnal and hunt silently.

They act as beneficial pest controllers in homes, but their defensive bite can be intensely painful if handled carelessly.
