On July 15, 2021, in Eda-cho, Aoba-ku, the redback spider, designated as a specific alien species, was first identified in a residential area.
Redback spiders are basically non-aggressive, but they are poisonous, so be careful not to catch or touch them with bare hands even if they are found.
This is the sixth confirmation in Yokohama, including this time. Up to now, five cases have been confirmed in port areas.
