Introduction
Spiders often sneak into homes through windows, vents, and cracks. While most are harmless, their presence can be unsettling. Here’s how to repel them naturally and keep your home spider-free for good.
Why This Works
These methods rely on strong-smelling, natural substances like essential oils, vinegar, and citrus — all of which spiders hate. This approach avoids toxic chemicals and is safe for kids and pets.
Ingredients
For Natural Spider Spray:
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup water
10 drops peppermint essential oil (or eucalyptus or tea tree oil)
Optional: 1 tsp dish soap for better adhesion
How to Make
Combine all ingredients in a clean spray bottle.
Shake well before each use.
How to Use
Spray around windowsills, door frames, baseboards, and corners.
Reapply every 3–5 days or after cleaning.
Wipe down web-prone areas with the spray to deter return.
