For several years people have been using citronella-oil to fend off mosquitoes. Actually this oil is capable of repelling different pests, spiders, and insects too. A person can mix 5 drops of this oil, 1 quart water, and 1 teaspoon lemon dish-soap, and spray the mixture where spider problems are existent. For ages people have used Neem oil and Tea-Tree oil for treating skin infections in both pets and human beings. These oils have been observed to be effective in repelling spiders too. Both these oils are easily available at health food-stores. A person can prepare a mixture of these oils and spray it in places where there is occurrence of spiders. Research has shown that a very potent spider repellent/ killer can be prepared by combining mineral oil, rosemary oil, and wintergreen. Therefore, it can be seen that there are plenty of non-chemical insecticides and one just needs to choose a repellent / insecticide that works best for his house. Apart from these products, chemical insecticides / repellants and glue traps are also used for killing and repelling spiders. The chemical spider repellent needs to be sprayed wherever there is a congregation of spiders. Glue traps are also used by people and these have sticky surfaces to entrap spiders and exterminate them.
