1. Fill the spray bottle halfway with water.
2. Add an equal amount of white vinegar to the bottle.
3. Add 10-15 drops of your chosen essential oil. Peppermint oil is particularly effective, as spiders are repelled by its strong scent. Tea tree oil can also be used for the same purpose.
4. Shake the bottle well to mix all ingredients thoroughly.
5. Spray the mixture in areas where you have noticed spider activity or where spiders are likely to enter, such as window frames, doorways, and baseboards.
Why This Works:
1. White vinegar contains acetic acid, which is known to be a natural deterrent to spiders.
2. Essential oils like peppermint and tea tree oil contain compounds that spiders find offensive, driving them away without causing harm.
By using this simple yet effective method, you can keep spiders away from your home without any adverse effects on your health or environment. Try it out the next time you encounter a spider, and enjoy a pest-free living space in just minutes!
