Spider Killer Spray 300 ml - Fast-Acting Crawling Insect Control, Home & Office (Pack of 1)

I'm probably more scared of spiders than death which is why I had to buy this. I sleep and do all my work in a small, but cosy, room at the bottom of the garden from my house. The spiders are pretty big down here and are constantly making their way into my room to a point where I'm removing at least 3 big spiders and countless of smaller spiders every night. That's when I thought about buying some sort of repellent to prevent the spiders coming in, and lead me to here. I've read a lot of the reviews on here, good ones and the bad ones, but as the majority of them are good, I considered in buying this. Best choice of my life, this thing works like a charm (And also kills spiders instantly if sprayed at them, so if you don't like killing spiders, try to avoid spraying them directly). I first used this on the outside door frame which immediately drove at least 5 spiders around it to scatter. I've now sprayed the corners of my room, around the window and the inside of the door frame which so far has worked very well. If you are petrified of spiders and can't deal with taking them out constantly every night, then you should definitely buy this product. It's cheap, works very well and keeps you safe. The only downside to this is the smell. It smells a bit like furniture polish, very strong and probably bad for non-ventilated rooms, but other than that it's a great product for removing spiders (Like literally, they run for their lives!). tl;dr Good product, works well but smells bad and not recommended for non-ventilated rooms.

Every time a spider decides to intrude in my home I either have to torch the house to the ground or move. Both of which are very expensive methods to deal with these arrogant invaders so a new method of destruction was needed. I recently moved into a converted barn. Oh the glee as I moved box after box into my new home, although I should've noticed it was kind of like the opening sequence to that early nineties classic Arachnophobia (banned from playing in my house) and cancelled the tenancy there and then. After a few blissful months and a cold August they started to appear. I kid you not, for a home made mostly of wood there are so many nooks a family of flesh eating, eight legged thugs can set up camp in so it wasn't long before i was made to feel unwelcome. The spiders this house attracts aren't those little things you mistake for flies, no, they're fully grown men in spider suits. Huge! They have tattoos, drink my beer and I've even caught them eating steak (at the table, by candlelight which was kind of cute but something I felt imposed a little considering they don't pay rent) anyway... I digress. So, these spiders are huge, a pint glass won't cover their leg span and if you do get them in they curl those hideous, long, spindly legs over the rim of the glass and leap out giving me the finger as they scuttle back to their nook full of dead bodies and steroids. So, my dear brother told me about this spray and how good it is, he said 'this spray is good' - for such an enthusiastic and articulate endorsement from him I decided it was worth dropping a tenner on it. Especially after having to remove eleven, yes, that was ELEVEN spiders from my bathroom in one in sitting. As soon as it arrived, I instantly noticed the bizarre font choice of comic sans- a font never acceptable in any circumstance and especially not on spider killer. The choice of font even made less sense to me than the picture of the ant looking sad but meh, I have spiders and they need dealing with so I moved on and sprayed it everywhere, doorways, window frames, all over the wood beams and every other crevice I could find. The smell isn't great, like bug spray, but really to me it just smells like spider death and I'm happy with that. First thing I noticed was a few bundles of wet, limp, shrivelled legs where spiders had made their way out but died crossing my spray boarders. (Or maybe I got it on them and didn't see) anyway, since spraying the reduction in spiders (and other creepy crawlies) has been amazing. They're still about (I had to get rid of one the size of my hand the other night) but they're now few and far between as opposed to when they literally re-spawned as soon as they were kicked out. This is a product I will genuinely continue to buy for the rest of my life... Me: 1 Soiders: 0

The spiders don’t immediately disappear, but they seem to run away and not come back for a long while- my husband thinks one of them looked at him and said what the heck was that! Some still require squishing!

Does what it says on the tin

This. Stuff. STINKS! And I've used smoke bombs to kill insects before...but this stuff, it's basically petrol with some kind of perfume in it. It's great and seems to do the prescribed job as spiders don't seem to like it much (although I have yet to see it kill anything), but please read on if this concerns you... I'd love to give this a shining review because I, like many others no doubt, read the many positive reviews here and thought it'd be worth it. However, there is one fundamental factor when reading these glowing reviews people wishing to buy this MUST take into account; and that is, where is this being used? Because I feel ill after using it and sleeping in a ventilated room with it for several days. Very ill. I've read many reviews on here which mention the smell of the product; but it's not an issue because they 'simply left that room alone for a few days'. Well I'm sorry, but unless you have a two+ bed house with good doors, this is simply not realistic. I bought this for use in a *bedsit* room; so me and my fiance have to live in the same room for everything in other words. Anyway, she's allergic to this stuff so I did it when she was away. After a few nights' very uncomfortable sleep, she comes back and it still stinks! Needless to say it has caused issues. My throat has closed up and various other things including headaches. We do not have the option of 'sleeping in another room', yet this product makes no mention anywhere of the odour...there are plenty of odourless choices which in retrospect I probably should've forked out extra money (I don't have) to purchase... Anyway yeah, if you live in a small flat or bedsit, DO NOT PURCHASE! You'll be regretting a 10 second spray for a good few days at least... Three stars though because it does what it should; seems to keep them away. Just keeps my fiance away too!

I bought some of this last year, so wanted to wait a while before writing a review, so as to be as honest as possible. Right then. This seems to work. Spider season before last (you know what spider season is, it's the time from mid August through to October where normal, sane people turn into gibbering wrecks with peripheral vision, so much so that even a random tomato stalk can send you screaming from the kitchen) I had 5 BEASTS in one evening and 2 smaller beasties. I was hysterical. Fortunately my son will remove for a quid a spider and 50p per small one, so he did well that night (I'd have given him £50, but don't tell him eh). It was so bad that my daughter had to call my husband back from work as "Mummy's hysterical on the sofa". 4 HUGE ones in the porch (air brick later sealed as it remains to this day) and 2 smaller ones, plus, after all that drama, another HUGE one in the front room just as my son thought it was okay to leave his wreck of a mother and go to bed. Could he find it; could he hell. He had the sofa upside down, shining a torch underneath, by which point my husband had returned home, not best pleased, but sympathetic to my phobia (his incidently is sharks, but we don't have much of a problem with them in Surrey) and eventually found said beast on the wall under the window going "yoo hoo, I'm here". Bastard. I tried the chestnut spray and the conkers and both seemed to help, but conkers tend to drop far too late to have any effect as by then they're in. Anyway, last spider season I sprayed a can and a half of this around my house, in every corner, around windows inside and out, under window sills, door frames and in a huge witch-like circle around my bed (you never know). It does smell, but frankly who cares. Not me. And not one HUGE beast did I see whatsoever and to this day, haven't had one since. The odd smaller one yes, but I can deal with them and dispose of them just in case they are the same breed as we all know where that would go. I do have 3 cats, but sadly both males are bone idle and if they're inside, they're both in a coma. We do however have a young female who can spot a speck of fluff at 60 feet, so I believe she may have helped proceedings somewhat, but I aim to use to this forever now. I'd happily bathe in it to be honest if it meant I never had to see another spider again. I will happily deal with mice, rats, beetles, slugs ... hell, even a snake, but if you're like me, trust me, give this stuff a go as it does work and my son quite frankly can get a Saturday job.

I won't lie I hate spiders and hate September/October time when they seem to arrive in droves! The last couple of years seem to have been the worst ever, there was one in our bath that was the biggest we'd ever seen, and most nights they'd seem to be on the stairs, the worst possible place as you can't be sure whether they'd run at you or scurry off into one of the bedrooms. They were all huge too. I tried those electronic things which you plug in that are meant to release sound waves that scare spiders away but don't waste your money, they don't work. However this spray does! It is important you use the spray in the right places and use it 2 or 3 times a week in 'peak' spider season. Have heard some say it isn't as effective in garages and porches or on outside security lights but in terms of inside the house itself the difference is amazing, at least for us! It's easy to use, I use it 3 times a week in peak spider season on air vents where, depending on the type you have obviously, they get in more than you'd realise, around all doors, especially the main front and back doors/patio etc, and on skirting boards. Another tip is if you have one of those draft excluder snake type things, spray it on that and shove it against the front and back door once everyone is home for the evening. We have only seen one spider so far and it was fairly small, we have however found 3 or 4 dead ones including a huge one that still looked scary! If you do see a live one then spray this on them and it will eventually either chase them out or kill them. I love animals but hate spiders and am hearing more and more stories of people being bitten by them including a man not that far away from me who was hospitalised and put on a drip.. shudder. If used correctly this really does make a difference, beware though the smell when you spray is quite strong at first but soon fades. We have cats but none have been affected by this either. Pricey but the only product I've found to work.

OK : I'll say up front that I hate harming anything, so I'm the chief spider / insect / unwanted wildlife remover in our house. The family don't know but I actually encourage the little blighters whenever I can, though sometimes they get themselves (and me) into trouble by setting up home in places that the arachnophobes in my family don't like, a great example being the infamous "Web-in-the-face-and-mouth-at-the front-door" incident of summer 2017 which nearly resulted in therapy for a family member. So...having ummed and ahhed about this product for a while I made a purchase with a view to spot treating a few key areas of our property. Having picked my locations I searched out any resident critters and relocated them before using the spray. Its clear, with quite a strong 'fly spray' smell, but dries odourless and leaves no obvious sign that its there. But it absolutely is there : having tried it on our front porch I can say that it definitely seems to work...the front door, porch light and porch roof have been conspicuously spider free since I applied it, despite this being a boom year for spiders. Then only reason I've not given it five stars is that I was adamant that I didn't want to kill any spiders, just discourage them, but I can't help thinking that this is essentially just an insecticide. So whilst the porch will remain spider free for the remainder of this season, I'm not sure my conscience will let me buy a new can once this one is empty.
