|
|
| We live near the Brazos River; therefore, lots of bugs followed by lots of spiders. The spiders make homes under the furniture, eat bugs and leave bodies and droppings that look messy & need to be cleaned up. If we didn't have pets we'd opt for gecos (shared space with them while stationed in Thailand-they're good). We'd like to do something natural & effective to cut down on the spiders sharing our space. :( |

like you said, spiders follow the bugs. Get control of the bug population and the spiders will look elsewhere.
Dust the perimiter of the house with DE including any cracks or openings. Hit the baseboards with an orange oil product and hit any bugs/spiders you see with the same stuff.
