Heard the same thing and tried it a couple of years. Either it doesn't work here, or I have so many spiders I can't tell the reduction. A question I have is there a product that can clean/remove spider excretion stains? My vinyl siding is a mess and power washing with vinyl siding cleaner doesn't begin to remove the stain.

I use sticky mouse strips at both sides of the doors and spray also. Still have my share of spiders, stinkbugs and this morning an 18 inch long snake stuck to one of them. A garter, I presume. I guess I'll add another strip to the door.

This may sound crazy, but i've heard that you can hang an ostrich egg in your garage and the scent drives spiders away.
