In southwest Ohio, we have these "fruits" that grow on trees that my parents always called hedge-apples. I have no idea if that's what they're actually called. Anyway, they're green, round, about the size of two fists combined and have a rough textured surface. You put a few of these hedge-apples in your house and the spiders will disappear. Something to do with the spiders eating the fruit and getting poisoned, I guess. It worked like a charm at my house. They last for a few months before they start to rot and you have to throw them out.

by the way, Snopes said the whole "avg person swallows "x" amt of spiders" thing is B.S.
