while the buns are being bonded at fat fluffs I'm renovating their shed and have come across so many MASSIVE spiders and webs that I don't know what to do with. I don't want to kill the spiders because I think it's unneccessary, but to get rid of the webs, it seems like I have to kill the spiders as well...


What do you do?

I'm trying something out at the moment. I read the other day that spiders hate citrus, so I made up a spray with about 20 drops of orange essential oil to 500 ml water, and have sprayed it round all the small gaps in the house (window frames, doors etc). Time will tell if it deters the 'orrible critters!

I leave them, they eat flys

could you use the socks wrapped round the end of a broom?

Get the hoover to the webs. It won't get rid of the spiders there are a few big ones in my playhouse but I like them as they kill flies.

Why do you want to get rid of spiders?
I talk to mine as if they were pets.:shock:
I have seen my bunnies eating spider web, maybe its a natural part of their diet in the wild.:?
