Spider repellant?

Just use red raid, and spray it regularly around your doorways and window openings

Get a spaniel. No spider likes to be pawed, rolled on, chewed for a bit, rolled on some more and then eaten.

Conkers work for me, OH and I go and collect a dozen or so fresh ones from the park put them in corners of the rooms and haven't seen a spider in the house for a long time.. we've been doing this for around 5yrs now.. it works

Well,the good news is I moved a couple of weeks back and left the !!!!!!s behind:D Of course,I didn't warn anyone about the spiders...wouldn't want to put anyone off:rotfl:

I'm now spider free:j Although,one did hitch a ride in a box but he lasted all of five seconds when he revealed himself:o:rotfl:

LMAO, I can definitely 2nd this approach. I'm not bothered in the slightest by spiders however the spaniel always beats me to them. She will occasionally spit them out on the floor though once she's done though much to my wifes dismay!

Same solution for small flying insects, daddy long legs and moths!:T

MY spaniels were the same when I was a kid. The male in particular,spiders and daddy long legs always got it:rotfl: He had trouble when he decided to play with the hedgehog in the garden though LOL

I see many useful replies (probably from conker sales people - as my equine strategist composite fruit seed perennial woody plant has ceased production for another year). I, being an expert ornithological merchant have another suggestion...

You could keep a bird?

I base this on an age old documented adage portraying the tale of a mature lady who used a bird to solve such problems. This isn't without risk however as the said lady then required a cat to control the bird, a dog to check the cat... Eventually she became deluded and thought a cow could catch the dog - I'm not sure how things ended up for her but she was spared the expense of conkers thats for sure!

Good luck!
