Combatting spiders in storage unit
#12
no first hand experience yet. however i was told that the automated mosquito fogging systems that use pyrethrum spray completely removed the spiders from around my buddies lake Conroe house. I have the system on my new house but have not used it yet as I havnt got round buying the drum and the pump/timer for it. Will add it to my shop if it works.
Something like this might work for a storage unit http://www.horse.com/item/country-ve...FTRo7AodbwMAqw

Where could I find this??
Extract?? Also same as above where can I find it.
I don't think just putting glue boards down will help, these suckers get everywhere. Having someone come spray will be tough due to my schedule. Keep the suggestions coming!

tell ya what works on my boat. I put Downey dryer sheets everywhere, inside anything i could find to hide them and the spiders were gone . . . and i mean gone. Not a one inside the boat, maybe an odd one on a line now and then but they vacated the boat pretty much completely.

The best stuff ever. I live on the lake and this stuff keeps spiders away all season. Just one treatment and your done. Suspend SC from Bayer.

I have always gone to Lowe's and picked up a gallon of Ortho Home Defence and sprayed it in all the corners and cracks especially if there are any in the floor. I'm pretty sure they have to walk though it. I see spiders dead about 6" from where I have sprayed. I even do the house and spray up under the siding outside. Works great for me. Dryer sheets work good and the hedge apples smashed around the outside work.

I pressure wash my dock, roofline, poles, etc real good. Let it dry completely and then apply the Suspend SC. I'm telling you, it will last all season unless you pressure wash again.
I've started using it around the outside of my house as well. Same results, no more spiders.
I have a pontoon that sits in the water all season. This year I soaked it with the Suspend SC and it lasted about 3 months. I'm assuming the rain and elements broke down chemicals.
