Since you live in an older house, an exterminator would be the best idea. However, if this is not an option you have to first get rid of the reason the spiders are there. Spiders feed on other insects, so set ant traps and spray for other bugs too. You may have to open all of your windows, do a massive spray, and leave the house for a couple of hours until the toxins air out. Also, spiders are attracted to "hiding places" such as clutter....make sure you do not leave clothes on the floor and clean up small messes. Finally, a natural remedy. Find a grocery store that sells hedge balls (usually in late August). Place hedge balls in each room in your house, they are a natural spider repellent.

I know that Daddy long legs look strange and a bit scary, however, Daddy long legs are harmless and can't even bite you because their fangs are too short and our skin is too tough. Besides, a Daddy's favorite food is a black widow spider. If you find one just scoop it up with something and put it outside.
