I don't know why but over the last month or so my bathroom has become home to a million spiders! I am petrified of them so I really want them out...I don't care how 'helpful' or 'harmless' they are, I want rid! I have had four in the bath and three running around the bathroom floor (not at the same time obviously, or I would have quite literally died of fright) There aren't any windows in the room so I'm guessing they are coming out of the plug hole (if possible) or the extractor fan What can i put down to get rid of them? I tried a crawling insect repellant, which got rid of them for a while, but it obviously wasn't permanent. I really don't want to save their lives or their feelings I just want the buggers dead and gone. Has anyone else had this problem?

Buy some spider stop from Betterware. It comes in a spray bottle and is apparantley very good.

Me too, I'm having the same problem. I have literally filled every hole in the bathroom . But still get them. And most of the time it's two at a time. The only place I can think of is the extractor fan. So I will be getting someone to come put insect screen on the inside and the out of the fan. I think they may be creeping through the gaps in the wall under the ducting from inside the fan. Rather then making there way in from outside. Whatever it may be I am willing to try everything!!!

It's the heat. Plus they are looking for water.
You can spray along the baseboards and etc. OR have a professional service do the work for you. This should last a month, then it needs to be done again.

Leave the plugs in your sink and bath. You can get a humane catcher from betterware. Failing that you can borrow my dog if you like, she loves to chase and kill em!

Get a couple of medium sized scorpions. They will eat the spiders.

Nothing you can do, spiders will always find a way into your house no matter what you do.
