Other Helpful Tips to Naturally Expel Spiders
- Orange peels
In addition to being repelled by peppermint, spiders are also adverse to citrus scents and this is what makes orange peels a powerful method to keep them at bay. You can also use any other citrus fruit’s peel, for example, lemons and grapefruit. Peel off the fruit you have chosen and then chop the peel into quarter-inch pieces. Put them in a pot with boiling water and leave them overnight to soak. The next morning, strain the content and mix the liquid with one cup of witch hazel. Transfer the content into a spray bottle and shake it prior to use. Spray the mixture onto areas of your home where you have been noticing spiders the most.
- White vinegar
With certainty, white vinegar is one of the most versatile substances ever (with more than 1000 uses) and it has the capacity to repel spiders too with the help of its acetic acid. When mixed with water, you will finally manage to keep these annoying creatures far away from your house! In addition to spraying the mixture onto cabinets, sinks, and corners, also apply it onto cracks and crevices in the walls and floors.
