Here’s where it gets fun. You don’t need harsh chemicals. Spiders are surprisingly picky about smells. Peppermint oil is their kryptonite. Mix a few drops with water in a spray bottle and spritz around windows, doors, and baseboards.
They also dislike vinegar, citrus, and eucalyptus. Think of it as aromatherapy for your home, but with a side of spider repellent. It smells nice to you, but to a spider? That’s a big nope.
Even just placing cinnamon sticks or tea tree oil cotton balls in corners can make a difference. It’s like leaving a bad Yelp review for your house: “Great location, terrible scent.”
