Good Day

I would like to know if there is any way of getting completely rid of spiders. I am very scared of spider can't even look at a daddy long leg never mind the other ugly one.
The daddy long legs are in my garage & then I have got weird spiders some how it looks like the violin spider every one talking about but I don't know and don't like it. I started spraying doom etc on the windowsils & by the doors but doesn't seem to work they still come inside.
ANY HELP OR ADVICE ABOUT HOW TO GET THEM TO STAY AWAY PEST Control ALSO Doesn't WORK TRIED IT As well.

Terro spider spay will kill them and keep them away for a while. Also keep cleaning the webs.

Make sure you spray outside also to keep the spiders from coming inside should also help.

I'm sure many will say it's an old wives tale or myth, but I have had pretty good luck using hedge apples. Place them in the corners of rooms, basement, maybe in your attic if you have one. I've heard they are poisonous to humans and pets as well but I'm not sure about that. I have also been told that if you cut them in half, it will get rid of spiders quicker, almost like fumigating, but I haven't tried it. I now see maybe one spider every month or two.

Spider control is a process, not an objective. The main thing is to make your home as unattractive to spiders as possible. Spiders like places to hide and places to spin webs so they can catch their food without becoming food themselves. Keep the webs knocked down, especially outside, and make sure there's at least 2 feet between your outside walls and any bushes or foliage. Inside, sticky traps work as well as any chemicals to get rid of the ones already there.
