Here is what I found and have heard it works


Control of Spiders:

The normal “house spiders” are gray, pale yellow or tan and are small, no more than ¼ inch in circumference. If you notice a spider that is larger, ½ inch or more with distinct patterns or brightly colored, and can move quickly and jump, then these are the outdoor species.

Debris around and in your home and yard needs to be cleared. It is a good idea any time, to maintain conscientious cleaning practice. Prime areas for spiders are woodpiles, compost, and dead leaves that have accumulated, and trash. Moist areas such as basements, cellars, garage, crawl spaces need be free of debris and kept as dry as possible.

Caulking small cracks and crevices will discourage “outside” spiders from entering your home. Well-fitted doors and windows will stop the invading army of spiders from entering your abode. Inside the residence vacuum and dust under furniture, and in and around corners and closets as often as possible. Items left undisturbed for too long will send an invitation to our friend the spider to move in, remember they like to be isolated.

If you should need to use chemicals then, Diazinon 25% used outdoors is a good choice. Spray around the foundation of your home covering about eight or so inches of soil adjacent to the foundation. Indoors you can choose formulas of chlorpyrifos, and propoxur. Diligently follow instructions and understand the directions on the labels. Check with local hardware stores and garden site distributors for further suggestions.
