Spray Away Those Spiders!

I found a great recipe to rid your home and entrances of spiders!  It's all natural and won't hurt you, your plants or the environment.  It's easy, cheap and will generally keep spiders, as well as ants and other bugs, at bay for about two years after you spray.  This recipe is the perfect natural solution to ridding yourself of eight legged pests!

You will need:                                                                                        
1 package of pipe or chewing tobacco
1/2 cup lemon dish soap (organic is best)                                      

Directions:
Place the chewing/pipe tobacco in a gallon of water and bring to a boil.  Remove the pot from heat and allow it to cool completely.  Strain the liquid into a clean container.  Put 1 cup of the resulting tobacco juice and the lemon dish soap into a hose-end sprayer and spray the areas you want to be spider-free.  For smaller jobs, simply pour the liquid into a spray bottle and spray your affected areas.  As I said, this recipe works on other pests as well.

Let me know how this works for you!
