Are spiders your most significant anxiety? It's time to change that. Prepare this mixture of three ingredients as soon as possible.

Pour water and vinegar (in equal proportions) into a spray bottle. Fill the rest with lemon juice or a few drops of citrus essential oil. Mix the whole solution thoroughly and spray it on window and balcony frames.

To get tangible results, the spider-deterrent treatment should be repeated every three days.

How to deal with spiders? Here are a few important rules

The mentioned mixture is not the only trick to dealing with spiders. The following rules should also be noted:

  • Regularly clean your home, especially in corners and places where food scraps or dust can accumulate;
  • Check if windows, doors, and other openings are well-sealed. Spiders often enter through cracks and crevices;
  • Install screens on windows and doors to prevent insects from entering;
  • Spiders enter the house in search of food, i.e., other insects. Ensure there are no flies, mosquitoes, or other small insects in the house that could attract spiders;
  • Some plants, such as mint, lavender, or eucalyptus, can repel spiders. Place them in pots near windows and doors;
  • If natural methods do not work, you can use store-bought chemical repellents for spiders. It's essential to use them according to the manufacturer's instructions.
