Do you have a spider problem on your Brisbane property? Don’t worry, spiders are one of the most common pests in the Brisbane area and can be active all throughout the year. At Pest Control Southside, we have a lot of experience when it comes to spider pest control. That’s why we are breaking down some of the best DIY tips and tricks for how you can keep spiders away from your home. Let’s get started.
Peppermint Oil
Believe it or not, strong scents like peppermint oil are effective at keeping spiders at bay! Simply add 10 drops of natural peppermint oil to a spary bottle and spray around the problem areas in your home to deter spiders from invading your living spaces. There are loads of other strong smelling scents you can use that work just as effectively as peppermint oil. You can also use scents like citrus from lemons, fresh garlic, vinegar and even eucalyptus.
Keep Your Home Clean
One of the most effective ways to keep spiders out of your home is to keep it clean. That means free of clutter and free of food scraps. Firstly, spiders love making homes in your mess. Whether it be junk in your garage or a pile of clothes, household mess makes a great shelter for spiders looking for a place to settle in your home. Be sure to keep your home clear of clutter to discourage spider invasions. Secondly, spiders are looking for food sources which can be propped up by leftover food crumbs scattered about your home. Keeping your home free of excess food scraps is another excellent way to deter spider invasions in your Brisbane home.
Seal Any Cracks in Your Home
Spiders look to enter your home through cracks and holes. Usually these are located in walls, doors and around windows. Check these places in your home to find any places you think spiders could be using to get into your living spaces. Be sure to seal these up to stop any unwated spider invasions.
