When it comes to who can enter your home, spiders are unwelcome guests. Many of us are horrified by spiders and would not like to sleep in a room where they can hide. While such a company is definitely undesirable, none of us want to fumigate our homes with dozens of chemicals. The following all-natural repellents free your home from pests while keeping your air clean and healthy.
1. Peppermint and dishwashing soap
Mix together 3 cups of water, 1 teaspoon of soap, and 1 tablespoon of peppermint essential oil. Pour it into a spray bottle and shake well. Spray anywhere you think a spider might go.
2. Cinnamon
Cinnamon is a strong spice. The smell is simply incomparable. Sprinkle cinnamon around the perimeter of your home to keep spiders away.
3. Mint and cotton balls
Spiders don’t like mint. Soak cotton balls in the essential oil of mint, and place them under or outside your house. For an added bonus, you can plant mint in your garden to keep the spiders away.
4. Chestnuts
Chestnuts and walnuts are excellent for repelling spiders. Place them around the outside of your home to keep spiders from getting inside, or place them under furniture and on window sills to motivate them to move.
