I’ve never heard of that. I’ll check it out. Tennessee is covered up with spiders.

We went to Tractor Supply and I got a gallon of the Spider Killer and 24 glue box traps. I won’t put the spray in the vents because of my asthma but might spray it under the seats where it’s dark. I’ll put the more asthma friendly essential oil in the vents.

The spray says that’s it’s safe even for pets after it dries so hopefully it will be asthma safe too. I plan to use it in the closets in the house. I also spray the windowsills to kill the Asian beetles.

I try really hard to stay away from noxious chemicals in the house but in the South you have to do something. One reason I took the woodstove out was because I kept bringing scorpions in with the wood. A lot of nasties hibernate in woodpiles. We don’t get cold enough in winter here to kill them.

Mmm I remember the not-a-ladybug critters from Indiana only there they only attacked/ invaded in the autumn-time and i dont miss that event.

Spiders have been common just about everywhere Ive lived in the USA. Indiana rural had some whoppers but not biters. I think 99% of spider bites Ive gotten were from tiny spiders cuz I never saw anything to take revenge on. lol.

Hope the TC spray does the trick for ya!
