Its funny that this thread should pop up today, as I did end up brushing the lemon oil on my cornices etc and it has worked well for me, I have had no spiders or webs inside for almost a year now, I was only thinking today that I should go around and do it again.
I was just watching a repeat of Lush House today where she just rubbed a lemon peel over pantyhose, put them on a broom and swept away the webs- she said that was enough to repel the spiders. It didn't seem like much, so the lemon must be pretty strong, or spiders must have good smell or something!
Did people just use undiluted lemon oil? Could I mix some with a bit of water to make a spray, or should I just rub a bit of oil only everywhere?
I MUST get rid of these filthy things, and it's so hard not to have zillions out here in farm town.
