Store-bought sprays and traps can work wonders, but they contain chemicals harmful to pets and children. For homeowners looking for a more natural way to get rid of spiders, making your own homemade spider spray is one of the best options. <strong>Keep reading for step-by-step instructions on how to make your own homemade spider spray.<\/strong> However, if you think your spider infestation may be a bit too big to handle yourself, get an estimate from some of <a href=\"https:\/\/todayshomeowner.com\/pest-control\/reviews\/best-pest-control\/\">the best pest control companies<\/a> in the industry below.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do Homemade Spider Sprays Actually Work?<\/h2>\n<p>Yes, homemade solutions can work to kill and repel spiders, but not all work the same. Vinegar sprays can actually kill spiders, but most scent-based solutions (garlic, peppermint oil, etc.) work as a bug repellant. Store-bought sprays and chemical pesticides may be more potent, but natural solutions work just fine.  However, some of these solutions aren\u2019t safe for pets, so think about your furry friends before trying these DIY spider repellants and sprays.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-homemade-spider-sprays-and-how-to-make-them\">Homemade Spider Sprays and How To Make Them<\/h2>\n<p>There are very few home remedies that kill spiders outright, but many DIY spider sprays act as deterrents, meaning they keep spiders from entering your home. <strong>Only one recipe on this list is an insecticide, while the rest are natural repellents.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you have an active spider problem, don\u2019t settle for home remedies.

I suggest starting with one cup of each.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Mix the Liquids Together<\/h5>\n<p>The next step is simply mixing the liquids together in a plastic bottle.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Add Dish Soap to the Liquid<\/h5>\n<p>Add one tablespoon of standard dish soap for every two cups of liquid.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Fill a Spray Bottle With the Mixture and Use It to Kill Spiders<\/h5>\n<p>Spray this solution directly onto spiders and near spider living spaces (cobwebs, cracks, and dark wall corners).\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:838px;height:519px\" class=\"lazyload\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Homemade-Spider-Insecticide-with-Vinegar.png\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Homemade-Spider-Insecticide-with-Vinegar.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"width:838px;height:519px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-peppermint-oil-spider-repellent-spray\">Peppermint Oil Spider Repellent Spray<\/h2>\n<p>One of the most popular homemade spray recipes combines peppermint essential oil and water.

Plastic is fine if you\u2019re going to use all of the oil immediately.<\/p>\n<p>Apply this solution to any location where spiders live, such as doorframes, windowsills, baseboards, crevices, closets, spiderwebs, and cracks.<\/p>\n<p>Reapply once a month for the best results.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beware: this peppermint solution is not pet-friendly.<\/strong> Peppermint oil can make dogs and cats sick if they eat it or if it gets on their skin.

One way around this is to build some spider traps to catch them while they\u2019re out and about. There are plenty of effective store-bought spider traps you can use, but there are also some all-natural, DIY traps that work just as well.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-homemade-sticky-trap\">Homemade Sticky Trap<\/h2>\n<p>A sticky trap is one of the most effective at-home traps you can build for spider control. All you need is a thin cardboard sheet (like the side of a shoebox or a cereal box), an adhesive, and a place to put it.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Supplies Needed<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Cardboard sheet (used is fine)<\/li>\n<li>Adhesive (double-sided tape is preferable)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Make a Homemade Sticky Trap for Spiders<\/h4>\n<p>Here are the steps:<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Cut the Cardboard<\/h5>\n<p>For the cardboard sheet, take a thin cardboard box and cut out a 2-inch by 4-inch section (or as many sections as you want for multiple traps). Set these aside.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Apply Adhesive<\/h5>\n<p>Completely coat one side of the cardboard with your adhesive. If you\u2019re using double-sided tape, apply it to the cardboard and wait to peel off the protective paper until after you\u2019re ready to place it down.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Set the Trap<\/h5>\n<p>Once the trap is finished, place it near entry points or places where you have seen spider activity. Locations with warm water, such as under kitchen sinks or inside bathrooms, are likely your best bet.<\/p>\n<p>Place these traps along the baseboard and, if possible, behind furniture. By hiding the trap this way, you can keep it out of the way of your pets and children.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Dispose of the Trap<\/h5>\n<p>Once your trap is placed, check it every few days and dispose of it once it\u2019s full of spiders. If you don\u2019t see anything right away, don\u2019t be discouraged. Most spiders are ambush predators, staying in one spot for extended periods, so it may take a bit before they wander into your trap. <\/p>\n<p>If you feel the trap isn\u2019t working, try adding a water source to it by placing a bottle cap filled with water in the center. Otherwise, carefully pick it up by the corners, fold it in half, and place it into the garbage.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-natural-spider-repellents\"><a\/>Natural Spider Repellents<\/h2>\n<p>Beyond sprays and traps, plenty of natural plants and objects repel spiders. Here are some of your best options for natural spider repellants:<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-diatomaceous-earth\">Diatomaceous Earth<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC8706096\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Diatomaceous earth repels and kills many pests<\/a>. You can sprinkle a small line along the outside of your home or around your garden, shed, or driveway. On the plus side, it\u2019s safe to use around pets, children, and humans.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-basil\">Basil<\/h3>\n<p>Basil, a delicious herb in cooking, is also an effective spider repellent. You can grow basil plants along the sides of your doorways or in flower beds under your windows to help prevent spiders. Basil is also non-toxic to dogs and cats.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Basil is one of the most potent pest-repelling plants, plus it\u2019s super easy to grow.<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:838px;height:419px\" class=\"lazyload\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/basil.png\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/d7fcfvvxwoz9e.cloudfront.net\/dom43635\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/basil.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"width:838px;height:419px\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lavender\">Lavender<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for herbs that are both beautiful and spider-stopping, look no further than English lavender.
