THE ONLY WAY TO KILL SPIDERS THAT TRULY WORKS!!!!
We purchased an old farm house that was INFESTED with spiders. No joke, it was unreal how many spiders were in the house. The previous owners were very old and just stopped caring I guess. I am super anti chemical. After talking to a local Orkin man about having them spray for spiders, he informed me they are very hard to kill with chemicals and my best bet was to vacuum them up and their eggs. So I went on a vacuum spree and never stopped. I have spent the last five+ years vacuuming several times a week. They just kept coming back out of nooks and crannys, I could never kill them off. This year it was even worse. We had multuiple types and size, from small tiny barely visible ones to big fat ugly hairy guys. We had a poisonous one show up in my kids room and that was it. I did mad internet searches trying to find SOMETHING else that worked. I bought a decades supply of this stuff and went to work. I expected I would have to spray every inch of the joint before we could make a good dent. I started with one room in the basement so that I could gauge if it worked or not before I made the whole house full of chemicals and have it not work. I vaccumed up all the spiders and webs and sprayed around the whole room where the ceiling meets the wall, and along the baseboards, and the door frame and under the shelves. I came back 24 hours later and no spiders or webs. EUREKA! I kept coming back every day and NOTHING. Happy as a pig in mud, I started spraying the other rooms. A week later I had the whole basement done. I kid you not, each room would have over 100 spiders in them before vacuuming and spraying. I mean it when I say infestation. Since I sprayed each room, there has literally been ZERO live spiders seen in any of those rooms,. I have found several dead spiders laying on the floor, but its like they are literally SCARED of this stuff and totally avoid it. I am so very impressed with this product, I cant even tell you!!!! I purchased a case of it, and I plan on spraying again the moment I start seeing live spiders again. It has been over a month and NOTHING and this is our prime time for spiders coming in as its getting colder here now. This stuff kills AND repels them, truly works great! I did use gloves everytime I used this stuff, and when spraying overhead I wore work glasses. I will now use a face mask as well, as I noticed a super fine mist almost too small to see when I sprayed around the lights on the ceiling. I wouldnt have even seen the mist if it wasnt backlit by the ceilign lights. There is an odor to this stuff. Its not super strong, but the more you spray the stronger the odor. I just sprayed the rooms we occupy in segments to keep the smell to a minimum. The smell dissipats in a day or two, except the room where we keep our firewood. Thats our worst room for spiders and it opens to the outside, so I sprayed the ceiling beams until they were almost dripping wet. There is still a faint odor in that room, but barely noticeable to anyone but me. I am very chemical sensitive and get headaches easy from odors, and never got one from this stuff. I buy stuff on Amazon almost daily and rarely ever leave a review. I just wanted to give this product credit where its due, as I am truly amazed and so greatful that I found something to finally rid us of these darn spiders. I admire them outside only, in the house they are a total nightmare. Its so nice to see our home devoid of spider webs and not having to waste my time vacuuming celinings and walls every few days!!!! GREAT PRODUCT, DONT EVER STOP MAKING IT!!!
