Apply the spray around doors and windows, around the outside perimeter of your home, and in any dark corner where spiders may be hiding.
Also, what is a natural spider repellent?
Peppermint Oil Fill a spray bottle with water and 10-15 drops of peppermint essential oil and spray in places spiders tend to hide—under furniture, in closets, and in other corners and crevices of your house. In addition, add a couple drops of peppermint oil to a cotton ball and keep in those areas.
What smells do spiders hate?
Smelly stuff. Spiders dont like the smell of citrus fruits like lemon, nor eucalyptus, tea tree and peppermint oils. Try rubbing lemon peel around windows and doors, or spray the other scents around them. Another smell they dont like is vinegar – although you might not like that scent either!
