Ingredients

  • 15-20 drops peppermint essential oil
  • Water to fill 16 oz spray bottle
  • 16 oz spray bottle

Instructions

  • Fill spray bottle of choice with water and add the peppermint essential oil. Give it a good shake and wahlah! You have the easiest, most effective natural spider spray around. Spray around exterior and interior doors windows, and foundations weekly to keep pests out. Take a deep breath and revel in how awesome your home smells. Shake before each use to re-mix the oil and water.

Notes

I recommend using a glass spray bottle for this spray because sometimes when essential oils are placed in plastic containers, the oils can break down the plastic, causing the container to collapse.
This natural spider spray works because spiders HATE peppermint. Their taste buds are in their feet and for whatever reason, they'll do anything to refrain from walking on it.
