Buy a bottle of Spider Ban from Canadian Tire and spray all the outside door jambs, windowsills, anywhere they might be coming in from!

I do this all the time as I too am petrified of spiders. :eek:

the brown recluse spider?

When we stayed in my grammas basement there was an excessive amount of these. I bought a box of bounce sheets..spiders HATE the smell, and they went into hiding and we didnt see any after that..Keep in mind we had A TON of bounce sheets scattered and placed all around the basement..its smelled purrdy :D

The chestnuts dry up over the year and stop being effective. They should be falling again soon.

We made up a spray of lemon essential oil and water and a bit of soap to emulsify and sprayed it everywhere!

Seems to not have been a problem after that and also smelled purdy.. :)
