SPIDERS!!! SPIDERS!!! Too many spiders in my house!! HELPFUL INFO PLEASE.

umm, ghostbusters. No wait, the terminator, nah just call an exterminator.

better to call professionals..they use poisons and stay away from home after pesticide treatment for one month

try some of those ideas?

yeah, THAT's practical

I read recently that the average house is home to around 300 spiders. Best to get used to em.

google is your friend

Just leave them be, they eat all the summer fly's.

Spiders hate peppermint oil, you can make a spray with it. Or even Lemon Pledge, spray it on all window sills and in all the corners and dark areas of your home.

better to be safe than sorry,as you english say

If you live in areas where the hobo spider does,, it might be best to keep all the local house spiders. If you were to kill off the house spiders there is no longer competition for food for the Hobo it will invade your house

one word solution


























CREOLINA

Vacuum cleaner works for me, and outside surface spray where needed. Hold your breath, and wear gloves

I had the same problem. Exterminator didnt get em all, so I bought 30 "bug bombs", set 6 off in the house every day for 5 days. no more steenking spiders. of course I lived elsewhere for two weeks and had a hell of a cleanup afterwards, but, like I said, NO MORE SPIDERS

Hey, Spiderman!

I reckon you have a nest under your house, you must go there like in the movie Alien and kick some arachnid ass...
Wear a hasmat suit to make it more like Alien and maybe get a flame thrower to keep them away from you.

Also check around your house... See any loose bricks? Any gaps where the little critters can come in? Seal it.

I found out that there is a simple solution to keep them at bay but it won't kill them, it will just deter them but it does work...

However don't despair....Here is a motivatonal video...

Love ya Drunk Uncle. One of my favs on SNL.

Thanks for the input!

I'm hoping for a solution that doesn't include

harsh chemicals

Sadly, we do not have the means to stay anywhere

with all of the pets/children for a month. But, I

bet that would really work !!

Th-th-th-threeeee hunnnnndred. Eeeeeeee again.


Now I'm REALLY SCARED. LOL


There's no getting used to them. I'm done!!!

Thanks for the great info.

Well, these guys live in our basement where

there aren't any flys. They crawl up through

the vents and TERRORIZE us at night !!!!

That sounds really exciting. Have you tried it?

That I can live with. There has to be something

that deters them, right ?!

BURN THE HOUSE DOWN!!!

flamethrower

This is probably true. Are you an entomologist?

Now my only solution is a HAZMAT SUIT, nuts.

They are very elusive. I never see them hanging

around. THEY ARE VERY DEVIOUS !!!


Mutant Spiders With Large Brains. Eeeeeeeeeeee.

I use this stuff. Need reapplied every so often but works a treat.

SOUNDS EXTREME !!

But if it works.

YEAH AAAA.


THOSE ARE MY NIGHTMARES, lol.

I've used Big H traps in the past and they work great. It's a trap that comes pre loaded with a sticky goo and you can either fold it or leave it flat and the spider is drawn to it by the scent it puts off and then they can't walk away. It is like quick sand for spiders.

You have a crawl space under the house? If so take some stuff called Boric Acid, you can buy at Lowes for like $3 a bottle, and do a line all around the foundation inside then start in the back corner and spray it into the air as you walk back to powder under the entire house.

Once you're done you can then go into your home, again spray a perimeter line all around your home and then do a lite spray over your carpets (don't go high into the air to avoid getting it on counters and stuff) for 2-3 weeks then vacuum it up. I do the Boric Acid under the house/addict every single year to keep them out and I see no bugs/spiders at all.


Boric Acid is a dehydrating agent so it's 100% safe for kids/animals to eat and even if they ate half the bottle they only NEED to have water at their disposal to prevent any harm. Spiders/ants/etc will get it on their feet and when they clean themselves off they can't get enough water and thus die. It wont kill mice or rats so it wont harm small children or lap dogs/cats.


We have lap dogs (Maltese) and we never had any issues when we had to do it. I also did it when my Collie was 3 months old and she rolled in the stuff daily and no harm ever came to her (lived to be 15 years old)



Check the stuff out...it's safer then anything you will ever find for this job.
