Well, it is becoming winter time so there are expected spiders to come into the house. But it's been more then usual lately.

Mostly in my room. And the majority of them are big ones. My room is indeed, a mess. The other room we've been seeing them in the most is in my bathroom. It's not really cluttered or anything like how my room is. Just needs a scrubbing.

But what's with all the spiders??? My mom thinks it has something to do with under my bed, but under my bed I swear is the cleanest part of my room. There's only a small tool box and a couple of books.

Can anyone tell me why I keep seeing so many of them? Particularly in my room and bathroom?

Spiders don't like to be disturbed. Since you don't bother them with cleaning and such, word has gotten out that your room is a safe refuge from Mom and the vacuum and the duster.
If you don't want to clean your room, at least kick things around a bit so the spiders think you are. :)

I don't think they're coming in BECAUSE of the mess but they have more places to hide and build webs when there is a lot of clutter. Spiders do tend to come in during the fall, I assume to get ready for winter. Clean your room, especially around the outside walls and windows and spray spider repellent spray along the floor boards and window both in your bedroom and the bathroom. Have you had a lot of rain or dry weather lately? A radical change in the weather will get spiders on the move.

The other option is to call an exterminator but you need to clean the floors so they can spray properly.

Good luck (I hate spiders!).

Spiders will come in during winter no matter what, but more mess means more nooks and crannies to hide in. Clean everything up and keep it tidy. Make sure you dust and vacuum as well because the more dust in your house, the more dust mites and other bugs, which are a food source for the spiders. In our house, since we recognize that spiders are beneficial, we catch them with a cup and a piece of cardstock and release them outside--even in winter they will find a good place to go, especially if you release them in a woodpile or an unattached garage. It's just better than constantly killing them since they really are good creatures to have around the yard.

A messy room gives them more places to hide and allows them to multiply faster. Go to the local hardware and get some spider killer and spray your room, all the corners , under the bed, behind furniture. This will get rid of them for you. Good luck

Messy house has nothing to do with it. The weather has been nice and suddenly got cold at night, that causes the influx of spiders more rapidly.

Spiders are "private" creatures. They like places that are not often disturbed. They may be coming in due to weather changes and will go anywhere they can find some privacy.

messiness doesn't really matter. as the weather turns colder, they are seeking shelter from the elements,
