Spray Ortho Home Defense Max (Home Depot Carries it) in and around the outside perimeter of your boat and spiders won't go near it. If your boat is on a trailer, then spray that too. If it's at the dock, then spray that too. Try NOT to spray it into the water, as it is harmful to marine life. Ever since I started spraying my boathouse every few weeks, I haven't seen a spider OR the dreaded spider poop on my boat! NOTE: The instructions and label claim that it lasts up to 12 months, but it's best to do follow-up treatments every two to three weeks for better results due to the higher infestation of spiders that seem to be near the water.

+1 I spray the dock and all my lines every 3 weeks and around the rub rail after the last wash befor I leave for the week and have no spiders on the boat all year...
