Maybe it’s time to rid yourself of the anxiety and get these 8-legged pests for good. how can you eliminate them? Here are a few tried and tested suggestions that can surely help you decide which method can work best for your creepy crawly situation…
Glue Trap
Similar to the glue boards or traps used for ants and cockroaches, spiders have special sticky traps that don’t necessarily need to have pesticides or any toxins as the typical supermarket brands. Spiders are not necessarily attracted by specific scents, instead, they will be more attracted to your trap if a live prey is stuck to the trap.
You could even customise your own glue trap by making use of water, sugar balls, and a large cardboard. To make the sticky solution, boil the water and add the sugar balls. Allow it to boil for 5 minutes until it achieves a syrupy consistency. Spread the mixture onto the cardboard piece and leave it in places where spiders might frequent such as cupboards, between beds and walls, a dark closet, beside any piece of furniture, and the small and dark corners of the kitchen.
Catch them in their webs
You don’t always have to kill spiders. There’s always the option of relocating them to areas that can keep you both safe away from each other. Prepare to relocate them safely – get some supplies ready, such as a pair of gloves and a dry and empty glass or plastic container. If this seems a little complicated, you can try and use an index card to force the spider into the container before releasing it into the bush or garden. Make sure not to cover the container lid to allow the spider to come out and build a new web.
