Hello, so we live next to a huge ass tree and I think that's why every summer we have the biggest spiders all over the house. It's horrid! I'm terrified of them and we are so reluctant to open doors and windows, in this heat it's torture 😂

Any one have any good ways they use to prevent as many or stop them all together? We both hate spiders unfortunately 😂

I had a 30 min stand off with one of these bastards earlier before I plucked up the courage to squish it, I know they won't hurt me but the thought of them crawling on me is what makes me so scared

Repellant? They seem fucking bigger and bolder this year

Put few drops of essential oil (peppermint or lavender or rosemary or lemon) into spray water bottle, spray where you don’t want spiders to be - near bed, prominent corners, etc. Don’t spray on spiders, just the walls/furniture/windowsills etc. Need to repeat it few times.

Don't they!!! It's the weather, it must be. Last year in this 30 degree heat they were on steroids or something. Horrible things!

We've got powder down and in the door/window frames, sprayed it all with wd40 as well but still no luck 😡
