Surely you’re not crazy about the fact that you have a spiders walking around in your house, but it is still inevitable. If you’d rather avoid purchasing, chemical sprays that kill or expel these uninvited guests, we bring you a few tips on how to prevent the spiders enter your living space in natural way.
Peppermint oil
Spiders and various pests hate this oil. If you want to make the smell last longer, mix it with water and put the mixture in a spray. In this way, you will not irritate the skin of your household members or pets.
Citrus fruits bark
Spiders hate the smell of citrus, so instead of buying spray or essential oil with the scent of citrus, you can simply leave the bark of orange, lemon or grapefruit on the corners. Do not forget to replace them every 24 to 48 hours.
Chestnuts
Spiders will not even get close to chestnuts. You can arrange them along the window frame, so they cannot enter. The advantage of this mode is that the chestnuts will not deteriorate rapidly, so you can be safe for a long time.
Tobacco
Sprinkle the tobacco at the places you notice the spiders use to enter your household. If you have pets or small children, you can mix the tobacco with water and make a spray to avoid the danger that some ‘inquisitive person’ puts tobacco in the mouth.
