🌿 Say Goodbye to Spiders with These Handy Plant Tips! 🕷️
Noticed more spiders creeping around your home lately? You’re not alone—autumn is spider mating season in the UK, sending these eight-legged visitors inside seeking warmth. But don’t worry, we’ve got some fragrant solutions to shoo them away!
🌸 Lavender: Not only does English Lavender add a fab fragrance to your space, but its strong smell is infamous for keeping spiders at bay. Hang lavender cuttings around your home or plant them outside for a natural barrier.
🌱 Rosemary: Surprisingly aromatic to spiders, rosemary can be grown year-round. Just remember to shelter young plants when it’s cold outside!
🌿 Basil: Perfect for both your kitchen and spider defence! Keep a pot on a sunny windowsill for the best results.
Other charming anti-spider plants include marigolds, citronella, mint, and chrysanthemums. If maintaining plants isn’t your thing, essential oils like citrus, eucalyptus, and peppermint can work wonders too. Simply spray around doors and window sills to keep those pesky critters out.
And if you see a spider chilling in your home, just cover it with a container, slide a card underneath, and release it outside. Happy gardening and spider-proofing! 🌼✨ #SpiderSolutions #GardeningTips #HomeHacks #FreshFragrances
