Pest Control

I hate spiders....let's just say that now. Thanks to scrolling, I now have a new way to control their presence. I found that one had built a web between my stool and the wall overnight. Super 77 glue works well at holding them in place long enought to squish them. Thanks 3M!!!

Deft lacquer works wonders on them too. BUT !!! Deft lacquer and a match are even better.

I hate spider's too. We get the wolf spiders that if you disturb them they get aggressive. I've come close to wetting my pants once or twice. I'd rather face a rattler.

I, too, am not keen on spiders. Hubby says he can tell by the volume of the squeak, the size of the spider. We live in a pretty rural area and at one time had a wooden floor in out lounge and on some late summer evenings, you could actually hear spiders walking across the room. We carpeted it!

I don't ever kill them although I am not sure as to whether this is because I believe that "they are good and kill nasties" or because I am so ****** scared!!!

My wife bought some ant stakes that you put in the ground or can just lay on the ground, but anyhow they have poison in them to kill ants. I have an ant problem in my driveway, and around the barn that drives me nuts as they tunnel between the cement slabs. They are grey and they are not made by Terro. A buck a dozen at Ace. You get what you pay for I guess, because I see dozens of ants inside the traps all the time. They eat all what's in them and just won't die.

Mothballs work great to get rid of bees in the attic and spiders in the house, but who can stand the smell and supposedly the fumes are cancer causing or something like that.

Just make sure you have pointy toed shoes on so if they get in a corner you can still stomp on em.
