My house has recently been plagued w/ spiders. Everynight it seems we kill at least one large spider inside the house. They are often on the ceiling or ight along the ceiling to wall joints. I  do not like spiders, nor does my wife and we are getting tired of killing them nightly.

Is there a chemical or remedy available to us so that we can rid our house COMPLETELY of these vermin? I want all of these fuckers dead and am open to any suggestions, I would prefer to kill them with fire, but I think that would kill my house too :( So, educate me all mighty hive mind.

This is how I keep the spider population down:



She hunts nonstop, and once she spots one, she'll stalk it for as long as it takes to catch it, up to several hours.  She eats the bodies and leaves me neat little piles of spider legs.

That must explain why she is fat.

Anything as you want as long as you only kill the bad spiders.

Hint - if you use an aluminum flashlight, make sure the spider is on something soft to avoid unusual sounds.

Home Depot has a season long spider killer that works pretty good. It comes in a gallon jug with a pull to prime sprayer or a squeeze type sprayer(which sucks). It supposably lasts like 4 months after you spray an area and is safe for pets/kitchens. I've been using it for two or three years.

Grab a tissue or some toilet paper and squash 'em, Nancy!

If you have too many of them spray the exterior of your house with bug spray.

Doesn't DrFrige still run that Rescue Shelter for spiders?  Just round them all up in a humane trap and send them to him...

Go to your local hardware store and get a cheap pump sprayer. Then google the insecticide Conquer and buy it. One ounce per gallon of water is pure spider death when applied interior and exterior.

Great stuff, long residual, odor free,non staining and pet/ people safe.

You will NEVER get your house spider free....  They are one of the most beneficial visitors to your house.  You clean all of the dark dusty areas and only keep stuff in plastic tubs instead of cardboard boxes and poison your house ike crazy, but they are always there...

Here's the bottom line. The brown recluse is undeserving of its horrid reputation, and thousands of reports each year of serious injuries from brown recluse bites are clearly wrong. The brown recluse can cause a nasty wound, but there is not a single confirmed death in the United States from a brown recluse spider, according to Richard S. Vetter, the leading expert in the field ............

.......The family collected 2,055 brown recluse spiders during that six-month period, including some they found crawling on them as they slept, or stuffed clothes into the washing machine, or picked up the newspaper. The spiders were found in every room of the house, including "high human use areas such as bedrooms, kitchen, and bathroom," according to the study.
Yet here's the most astonishing part. During the six years that the family has lived in the house no one has received a single bite. Not even one.

If you have that many spiders in your house, i only can think of two words.
HOTEL, EXTERMINATOR.

I got popped by a fiddleback a couple of years ago in my left side, that shit hurt for months even after the surgery.
