Households across the UK are being urged to boil lemon peels in water until November to deter spiders.
The autumn season not only marks the start of colder temperatures, it's also the time of year when spiders head indoors in search of shelter and a mate, making it a nerve-wracking time of year for arachnophobes. Spider season in the UK typically kicks off in early September and can last until early November, so there's still a long way to go before the eight-legged critters retreat into hiding for the winter. There are several species that you might spot creeping around your home, but the most common are house spiders which can have a leg span of more than four inches long. It’s also possible to see lace web spiders, cellar spiders and false widows, which have a slightly rounded shape and shiny brown bodies. Spiders find their way into your home through cracks, caps, open windows and doors, so simply sealing these shut is an obvious solution to keep them out. But there is another layer of defence you can try – and that requires using lemons.
Spiders have a sensitive sense of smell and don’t enjoy strong aromas, especially citrus fruits like lemon. So you can utilise this by making a homemade spray solution to spritz around your home to help deter the creatures from entering.
Experts suggest soaking lemon peels in boiling water, along with a few drops of essential oil, and leaving this overnight before transferring it into a spray bottle.
Then simply spray the solution into entry points around your home, including around windows, doorways and any cracks or gaps you can find.
Experts at The Happy House Cleaning Services said: “Spiders hate citrus fruits! You can easily prepare green repellent by squeezing half a lemon and mixing it with water. Pour this liquid in a spray bottle and spray around the house.
“Spiders usually nest in wall cracks, corners of the walls, and the hidden, dark places – behind cabinets and wardrobes, heavy pieces of furniture, corners of walls and ceilings, cracks in wooden flooring.
“Another way to get rid of spiders is to sun dry citrus fruits peels and grind them in a food processor. Sprinkle this powder around the house once every week and the spiders will soon disappear. You can use grapefruit, orange, lemon or lime peels, or mix of all of them.”
It’s also recommended that you simply rub lemon peels along your windowsills and floors, and leave the peels out to discourage spiders.
Experts at Go Assist explain: “Lemon and orange peels are a natural deterrent for spiders. Rub floorboards and windowsills with the peels once a day so the smell lingers. You can also have a bowl of citrus fruits in your kitchen to keep spiders out of this area.
“Be aware that this could strip the paint off your windowsill, so if you do try this, test it in an inconspicuous area first. You could also try placing citrus peels near your windowsills and doorways to discourage spiders.”
