How to Keep Spiders Out of Your House
WouterSpiders are nocturnal creatures. They prefer to live outdoors in damp areas. Some can make their home inside. But, there are ways to keep them out.
One of the best ways to stop spiders from getting in your house is to seal up your house. This means sealing windows, doors, and cracks. It also means caulking around pipes. This is a simple yet effective way to deter spiders.
You can also make a spray with essential oils and water to repel spiders. There are several different types of oils to choose from. Eucalyptus is an excellent choice for repelling spiders.
Some other options include lavender and mint. Both can be grown in your garden or under your windowsill. Peppermint oil has a distinctly minty smell that will keep spiders at bay.
Another useful trick is to wash away crumbs. This will discourage spiders from making webs and help to clean up your kitchen.
You can also try citrus peels. The smell of oranges and lemons is not only pleasant to humans, but it is also a powerful smelling repellent.
You can even create your own natural spray with dish soap and apple cider vinegar. Just mix these ingredients together in a glass bottle and you have a handy spider-repelling product.
You can also use salt. While salt doesn’t directly attract spiders, it can kill them. The best part is it doesn’t take much. You can even use it on the door to your house.
