NavalLacrosse Posted September 23, 2020 Report Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) Spiders. Enough said. I'm getting many spiders all over the car while it parked for a couple days (usually a week at a time). my current strategy is wait till just after dusk, when the spiders come out, use a broom to knock them to the ground, then step on them. Let's just say it's a strategy which no spider can avoid, and even a scaredy-cat like me can stomach. It seems i'm able to keep them at bay (originally there was 12 'false widows', now there is only one (or less)) Jokes aside: Does anyone know of any products or repellent to rid the car of spiders? I've heard using pesticide is the WORST as it dissolves clearcoat. There are chlorine bombs. Has anyone used one? There are also home remedies, like citrus water to spray into trouble areas (like the mirror, and wheel wells). This seams more like a pseudo-solution, just to make 'arachnophobic car owners' seem like there are less spiders. Anyone tried it? TL;DR- Has anyone had any success with anti-spider products and their DJ? Edited September 23, 2020 by NavalLacrosse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John/Horace Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 I’m thinking traps, Lee valley has good stuff usually. Stay away from paint like you said. https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/home/pest-control/insects/44955-spider-traps?item=AT225&utm_source=free_google_shopping&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=shopping_feed&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI6eS258uA7AIVUsDICh0I5AEUEAQYASABEgIHe_D_BwE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnDodge23 Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Just apply wax to your paint, that'll keep the paint protected. If you can try to avoid parking in that spot just do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
