spiders.

Anyone know how to get rid of them? This isnt pregnancy related but if i keep finding all these spiders around the house they are gonna scare me into labor. I swear they get a little bigger with each one i find. Weve lived here for like 4 months and im just now finding them and idk where they are coming from,but they need to go.

We have that prob with ants.  Get bug sprays and go through all the cracks in the wall and the windows

I dont think the vinegar lasts very long make sure ur house is sealed up well around doors n windows n if u dont wanna try chemicals right away peppermint oil or anything with citrus is supposed to repel them as well as keep clutter to an absolute minimum. Ive been on a rampage since we bought our house last summer n theyre bad coming in from a field behind our house. Just be sure if u use any kind of oils u check to make sure theyre safe I dont think peppermint oil is good for cats but ok around dogs n kids

They I will just spray all over.  Doorways. Windows. Outside of the door and windows . Corners on the ground. The whole ground lining. But have someone else do it don't inhale those chemicals. And if u have carpet vacuum everyday.  And look around and see if there are any holes then patch them . I use to have a Roach problem. when I moved in I didn't know but they were coming from all over once I got settled in. So I even put mouse traps the glue kind on the floor behind the stove, refrigerator etc. anywhere u usually won't clean daily. and it worked.

If its bad i know they have a spray that u put around the perimiter of your house or where ever they are comming from. They sell them at a menards or home depot. Idk if u have one around you. But i heard it works pretty good.
