Janet Pizaro on Sep 21, 2015First it will help if you mention where they are.If they are outside your home you will need to spray all around the foundation with bug b gone. This may help with the control, however it may not rid of all of them.Helpful Reply

Connie on Sep 21, 2015Yes I have heard Peppermint oil will do the trick and it smells good too. I am going to use some of Watkins its less expensive and you get more. You can do this inside and outside the house, Being as afraid of spiders as I am this is worth a try. Good luck, I also have a pest company come and spray for them and the bugs they eat. works great too.Helpful Reply

Marilyn Gordon on Sep 21, 2015I agree with Connie, You can put some of the oil in a spray bottle and then fill with water and spray around. I put oil on cotton balls in small plastic (3 oz.) cups and sit them around the rooms in hidden places. Spiders hate the peppermint oil.Helpful Reply

Grady on Sep 22, 2015Get a cat. My cats eat spiders or my dogs step on them and kill them. Or get Orkin, the extermination company.Helpful Reply

Jennie Herrick on Sep 29, 2015I agree with Grady. The best, all natural way to rid your home of spiders is to get a cat. I purchased a foreclosed home that was completely infested with spiders. I got a cat and set it loose in the house for a week before we moved in and there was not a spider to be found!Helpful Reply

Tina Hill on Sep 30, 2015Osage Oranges .... aka "Monkey Balls" .... they are large( like a big grapefruit ) nut or seed from the Osage Tree and are also known as "HedgeApples" and are touted as spider repellents.... I tried the peppermint oil and I have a cat so I don't really have a problem in my apartment , but if i had a house , i'd try the osage oranges in the basement and garage and by the vents on the outside around the foundation .Helpful Reply
